I've tried everything there is that worked previously. I kept on having issues with FF crashing lately. This time it crashed and didn't restore any of the previous tabs. I went through all the tricks that worked before but this time none of it did. I tried to refresh FF like some post suggested and that didn't work as well. I had many important tabs open during the session and I don't want to lose it all. Can you please help?

send over a crash report so someone can fix that.

A friend of mine told me that looking through the history folder will show the tabs that were in the session before FF crashed. But I later found out that's not the case. It was the history of the all newly closed tabs. Some of the tabs have been left open for a while as a reference and the history folder didn't have any of it. What can I do now by myself?
