One of the changes in Firefox 4: '''''by default''''' Firefox 4 does not display the "Save Tabs and Exit" warning message when closing multiple tabs, but it can be turned back on by changing some preferences. *<u>Saving tabs was not removed from Firefox 4</u>, but it works a bit differently. **By default, Firefox 4 will not ask to save tabs, but instead it will always save your tabs on exit. You can restore them next time by choosing "Restore Previous Session" from the History menu, or pressing the restore button on Firefox's default home page. **''<u>Note: This was a decision by the developers. On this forum, we are all '''uncompensated volunteers''' here to help other users.
