How to I have restart Firefox without restoring a previous session?

• Whenever I open Firefox, it restores my previous session without being invited.

  I set parameters so that when I start Firefox to go on my home page, which is just the Mozilla Firefox start page. Despite this option is defined, it always restore my previous session every time I open Firefox.

  One of the possible reasons are a statement in a user.js file. Firefox checks a file user.js at startup, and it replaces your own preferences. This article describes how to check for this problem as possible: How to fix preferences that will not save.

  Another possible reason is if Firefox does not close properly and is still recovering from a perceived fall. To see if this is the issue, you can change what Firefox works after an accident so that instead of automatically display tabs from the previous session, it shows you a list of the tabs. Here's how:

  (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 preference browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes and enter 0 (that's a zero) and click OK.

  The next time Firefox starts if you get the screen saying 'it's embarrassing"and display a list of your last session tabs, then the problem is that Firefox crashes on shutdown.

  Does this help with your startup?

  (1) download a fresh Installer for Firefox 37.0.1 of https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ in an ideal location. (Scroll down your preferred language).

  (2) close Firefox (if applicable).

  (3) to rename the program folder

• How can I stop firefox trying to restore my previous sessions

  Since I updated to firefox 20.0 I had a problem with firefox. Whenever I start firefox I get a message saying that it is so embarrassing to try but not to restore my previous session and it gives me the opportunity to be close the page and go to the home screen, or to restore my previous session. My preferences has the show my home page selected, every time I close Firefox, I close the page by pressing the red x, and then I put the firefox icon or the tab of firefox at the top of my screen and select Exit. I have reset firefox twice and that no longer works.

  A possible cause can be that you first close all Firefox Windows and then close the Firefox application.

  Some noted that closing of Firefox (Firefox > Quit) while the browser window is always open works for them.

• I'm fed up with Firefox, I can't seem to restore my previous session. I'm ininstalling it.

  I keep trying to put Firefox to "show my windows and tabs from last time", but he continues to show this http://search.us.com/v/2/?guid={A665B7FB-CC63-4DF6-A03A-AE7DF57CDAF0} when I start. I'm fed up. I uninstall

  I think it's because of software (adware or virus) on your computer or Web sites you visit. Many of these change home pages without the consent of the user as a way to aggressive advertising or people of the scam. Generally, these target your browser by default, so even if you go to Maxthon, you might get some problem. To avoid this, you must use anti-virus software to find viruses and adware, then remove them.

  Even with the adware you can probably always restore your previous session by clicking on the "Firefox" > 'History' > ' restore previous Session ' (or 'History' > 'restoration of previous Session"If you do not have the"Firefox"button).

• Firefox crashed and does not give me the option to restore my previous session.

  Hello

  I've been using firefox for a while now and so far, ive never had a problem like this.

  Firefox crashed last night while I was asleep, and when I woke up this morning to turn it back on, the crash reporter asked me that if I wanted to restart firefox, I did, but when it is loaded, instead of asking if I wanted to restore my previous session, he loaded a blank page which had a white patch is looking for unusual at the top where the tab bar is supposed to be , with the legs of loading below.

  The tabs that I had loaded were all very important to me and I would like to find a way to get back them if possible, however, I was unable to find anything on the other help pages that describes the solves my problem.

  Please help if you can, it would be greatly appreciated.

  PS I apologize for not to include an image of the window of buggy, it didn't occur to me to take a screenshot before I closed it.

  sessionstore.bak files are no longer used in current versions of Firefox, so they are probably for some time ago (seven 2014:20140923175406) and may no longer be of use.

  One possible way to inspect a sessionstore.js file or a file in the sessionstore-backups folder is open in a Firefox tab and to evaluate that JavaScript code in the Web Console (Firefox/tools > Web Developer).

  Paste the code into the Web Console command line and press the Enter key to evaluate the code.

  eval("ss = "+document.body.innerHTML.replace("<pre>","").replace("</pre>",""));
  sd='';
  for (var i = 0; i < ss.windows[0].tabs.length; i++) {
   var ent = ss.windows[0].tabs[i].entries;
   var last = ent[ent.length-1];
   sd+="["+(i+1)+"]:"+"<a href="+last.url+">"+last.url+"</a><br />";
  }

• What can I do to find file extensions, please? I'm trying to restore my previous session on Firefox, & need help file extensions...

  I was told if I found the session files I would be better able to restore my previous browsing sessions... I am using Windows XP PRO SP3 32-bit.
  But I was also told that if I went to a particular place on Microsoft Windows, I know how to get the file extensions, so far I have had no luck with assistance here... hoping someone can help.
  Or... do you something if I activate a restore point which would be an easier option?
  I'm old & not a geek, if need you detailed instructions please

  Thanks in anticipation... I am very grateful to be able to request...
  Kind regards

  Session files are located in your profile folder and are named sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak. If you have had an accident, FF load automatically and ask you if you want to use the session crashed.

  If you don't have an accident, you can load the last session in FF from the default home page by clicking on the restore session. If you have changed the default home page you can call it by adding on: houses a copy of your FF shortcut. Simply change as follows...
  
  Then, you will see this...

• Version 38.0.1 of Firefox will not restore a previous session by using Tab Mix Plus; all other versions prior to version 38.0 work.

  I installed all versions of Firefox to version 31.0 38.0 and the only one that does not restore a previous session using session Tab Mix Plus restore feature was version 38.0 or 38.0.1 (latest version).

  I think I saw something about this on their support forum, the other day, and the suggestion was to try the current development version:

  • Forum: http://tmp.garyr.net/forum/viewforum.php?f=2
  • versions: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/tab-mix-plus/versions/

  However, you can start a new thread with your specific symptoms to see if you get different advice.

• Home page search is not working / not Possible to restore the previous Session

  After the last update (version 29), the home page of default Firefox search bar has been completely non-functional. If I hit enter or press search, nothing happens. Another (possibly related) problem is that the button 'Restore previous Session' is never present. I can also restore the previous session by clicking on the option of history (it is always grayed out).

  When you look to the top How to start safe mode, I discovered how to reset Firefox to its default value of the plant. I did it and Voila! Problem solved.

• I can't open Firefox without restoring to an earlier version. I did a reset and updated, but whenever I close I have to restore a previous version

  When I try to open Firefox I get this message, the application could not start properly (0xc0000022). To open it, I have to do a restore to the previous version. A time to do an update and a reset, but neither helped. Once I close out I have to go the same way next time. I don't want to uninstall and reinstall because I don't want to lose my favorites. Someone has an idea?

  Some problems occurs when your Internet security program has been implemented.
