Firefox keeps restoring previous session even thought that preference is not checked
FireFox V64.0, 64 bit keeps restoring previous session with previous content even after proper shutdown of both FireFox and PC. Preference settings are NOT checked for Restore. I have tried checking them, restarting, unchecking them and restarting, but no change.

Hello Briankarens,
Would you please type in the address bar about:support (press Enter) => Profile Folder => Open Folder Then check if you have a user.js file in your Firefox profile folder that sets the value of the browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once preference to "true" (default value is "false") (you'll have to close Firefox first)

Thanks for solution. Wouldn't it make sense if FireFox preferences listing INCLUDED any settings from user.js?

Worth a try ....
Hi, I am having this problem too. Firefox 74.0 on openSUSE Leap 42.3 - KDE Plasma 5.8.7. In the preferences I have "Restore previous session" unchecked. in about:config I have:
browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash false browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes 0
I log out of KDE without closing firefox. At the next login all my tabs and windows are restored. I would like to start with a new session with the option of restoring the old session using the menu. I want to keep my history and the undo close tab/window functionality. Is there a way to do this ?
Oh and I don't have a user.js
