I started Firefox after crash and had a restore previous session tab. I ocassionally closed it and after Ctrl+Shift+T had that restore tab back with nothing to restore. How to recover it? Sasha

Do you still see "Restore Previous Session" in the History menu? You can tap the Alt key or press F10 to show the Menu Bar.


Backup the session files in the sessionstore-backups folder in the Firefox Profile Folder to make sure not to lose possible important session data. Do NOT close Firefox when Firefox is already/still running.

You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:

You will normally find these files in the sessionstore-backups folder:

previous.js (cleanBackup: copy of sessionstore.js from previous session that was loaded successfully)
recovery.js (latest version of the sessionstore written during runtime)
recovery.bak (previous version of the sessionstore written during runtime)
upgrade.js-<build_id> (backup created during an upgrade of Firefox)

You can copy a file from the sessionstore-backups folder to the main profile and rename the file to sessionstore.js to replace the current file (make a backup copy of the current sessionstore.js).
