I backed up my profile on an XP64 bit machine and moved it to the same version, 29.0.1, of FireFox(FF) on a Win7-64 OS. Tabs won't reload after creating a new profile and copying the files in to the profile directory.

What does happen is a new sessionstore.js file gets created each time I start FF and the file I would like it to open gets renamed sessionstore.bak with a numerical date string in the extension.

I can use NotePad to open the file and there is a ton of code in there and I even tried to copy and paste it into the the new sessionstore.js file that FF keeps creating and saving it in Unicode format.

No luck :( I thought this would be a simple a straight forward transfer of my profile to a new machine.

PS. Even the Bookmarks didn't open and I had to use a BackUp and Restore but at least that was a simple enough manual operation.

Make a back up of the back file. I think it is .bak file is the one that gets opened, try renaming the .js file that you have moved to the second computer to have the .bak extension.

Make sure that the sessionstore.js file isn't set to read-only (right-click: Properties) as can happen if you used a read-only medium like a CD-ROM to transfer the file.
