Previous version allowed me to save tabs when closing Firefox. This appears to no longer be available?

The previous version of FF asked me if I wanted to save my Tabs when I closed it. I no longer seem to have this option on FF 4.0. Is this no longer available?

One change in Firefox 4 is to by default stop Firefox displaying the warning message, but it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.

  1. Type about:config into the location bar and press enter
  2. Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
  3. Locate the preference browser.tabs.warnOnClose, if its value is set to false, double-click on it to change its value to true
  4. Repeat this for these 3 preferences browser.warnOnQuit, browser.warnOnRestart and browser.showQuitWarning
