How to disable session restore (going again, even if all options are set to off)?

No matter what I do my session always restores. He started to arrive a few days ago. I deleted the cache and even reinstalled the latest version of FF, but nothing seams to work. I also followed every article that tells what must be changed to "subject: config ' and still no progress. This is a HUGE security hole because if I forgot to close, say facebook, as soon as FF it brings it to the top with me connected.

If it does not get fixed I will be forced to go to the Opera or Chrome (which I CERTAINLY don't want to!)

Moreover, the reason why you stay connected to Facebook for restoration is because session cookies are stored in the history file of session. You can block cookies from the websites secure so that Facebook will not be connected. This is another topic: config parameter.

(A) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

(B) in the search above the list box, type or paste sess and make a pause so that the list is filtered

(C) double-click the browser.sessionstore.privacy_level preference and change of 0 (save all session cookies) to 1 (save session cookies not HTTPS) and click OK.

  • Disable session restore

    So, I had problems with firefox restore my session after I kill with the Task Manager, and his return to the page that did stop responding in the first place, it is possible to completely disable session restore, after all, I didn't use it anyway.

    I don't think that there is a simple switch for session restore. What might help, however, is to change what Firefox does start after a crash: instead of immediately to restore all windows and tabs, it can present a screen saying something like "Embarrassing" and listing the windows and tabs, so you can deselect those don't care you, or just start a new session.

    If you want to try, here's how:

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste sess and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    3 double-click the browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes and change the value from 1 to 0 (that's a zero) and OK the change.

    In this way, you can still restore the last session at the request (for example, using story > restore previous Session) if necessary, but you will not be forced to do.

  • PC goes mode sleep when the Power Options are set for ever, etc. also can not wake up

    Hi, I read the other posts on this topic, but my problem seems a little different.

    I am running Windows 7 on a Dell desktop computer and I tried to run chkdsk and also the Dell diagnostics that I have some problems hard drive; However, it gets so far and the pc goes into mode 'sleep' causing me even worse problems that chkdsk/diagnoses are halfway through a volume. The pc has done this on and off tension for awhile, but hopefully not when something critical is running, even if it is a nuisance.  I did all the steps recommended here as ensure my Power Options are set, etc., but he always does.

    In addition, when the pc goes to sleep, I can't wake him up by pressing the power button or any key on the keyboard.

    I've been in contact with Dell and they said that it's a software problem.

    Someone can suggest something else I can do (stop) the computer mode 'sleep' and also how to wake him.

    Thank you.

    When you open the tab automatic updates in the control panel or My Computer property sheet, all options of configuration of the automatic updates may be grayed out. This happens due to one of the following reasons:

    The options available for automatic updates.

    I am using Windows XP PRO 32-BIT... I read (and checked) all options but still can't find my last session of navigation of yesterday. I opened a new tab in 'My Favorites', only one tab open, so now, this tab is my "last session"...

    I have a lot of files bookmarked...
    Previously I always managed to restore by clicking the Session Manager to restore the last session, but the button seems to have disappeared. Please, I'm old and need of (detailed) easy step by step instructions!
    I just remembered I have some work early this morning, it worked well then. I went to make breakfast. When I came back, the computer was disconnected and restarted. But I have no idea why.
    Maybe something happened? I cannot now get this morning session or session of yesterday, with all the tabs I had open for research...
    Thanks in advance...

    The user.js file is not there by default.
    It is present than if you or other software had created, so if you can't find it, then it's OK.
    Note that Windows hides file .js extension, probably, you see only a user with the type of JScript file.

    You can see in the screenshot in this article how the words: support page is supposed to look like and where the button is located in the Application Basics section below the user agent.

  • I installed Identity Finder, and I have to enter a password to enter in Firefox, what pleases me. However, even if my settings are set on "show my windows and tabs from last time ', I have to manually click on each one to add in a new tab of each hour.

    I installed a security program called Identity Finder whick requires a master password in Firefox on my laptop, I love. However, even if my settings are "show my windows and tabs from last time ', I have to manually add each link in a new tab each time. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

    Pure speculation, but maybe the program Identity Finder is delete your browsing history which is the way Firefox restores the tabs, windows, and the previous session. Check with the technical support for this program or look at the manual.

  • Restore will not ask for ALL my backup set.

    Had to replace a failing hard drive.  The whole process of installation and update of all my software went seamlessly.  Restore my PERSONAL files, however, has been a nightmare.

    I have a set of 3 backup disks (each successive), but has asked only the FIRST restore disc and then (VERY briefly) used the other.

    Unfortunately, not all the files that he handed in my hard drive are the latest versions, and some of my files are still missing.

    QUESTION: How can I force restore to call for ALL 3 of the consecutive backup drives before he leaves?

    I've been at this for hours, and I got it about.   GRRRR.

    Hello

    1. the restore process hang or fail?
    2. do you get an error message?

    We cannot force all disks to restore both. The backup and restore only will guide you to complete the restore process.

  • How can I stop FF from previous session restore, I've played with all the options I can find, but nothing can stop it unless I have clear history every time.

    Recently, FF started to open my tabs when I start a new session. I already checked to make sure that none of the parameters are enabled, such as the options-> general: housing starts of FF when "SHOW MY HOMEPAGE" is selected. But for some reason, it opens my last session. The only way I could so he could stop to do this is to have it delete my browsing history after that I closed the session. I don't want since I often use my story to re - find the information I need to research class. I made sure all my settings are the same since before FF has begun to do that. He has only started to do after the computer was turned off for a long weekend.

    I already looked in the help pages for Mozilla and all I can find is the restoration of the previous or similar session. I can't restore my previous session, I want to stop the restoration of my previous session without having to delete my browsing history each time.

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.

    See "create a profile":

    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from the old profile to the new profile, but make sure not to copy corrupted files.
