I need to recover a lost tab group. I would like to restore my previous session, but I don't know if I can.

I have not yet left firefox, according to the https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1028115. An update took place this evening, but I don't know if that caused my problem. It seems as if all the sessionstore.js files are old, so they are probably not helping. There is a upgrade.js file that has the correct time and date to be useful, but I don't know how to implement to restore my tabs. I tried to open it, he asked what program I said firefox and it opened in a tab as a giant text document, which does not seem to have the information I need. There is also a previous.js file that has the correct date and time. It's ridiculously frustrating not having any idea how to proceed, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello, first of all please create a backup of all files involved in a place course!

You can then apply a sessionstore-backups (for example upgrade.js) If you copy in the main profile folder and rename sessionstore.js replacing the file with the same name that's already there while firefox is closed. Then, restart the browser...

  • Is it all the same to recover the lost tabs when they were not part of the previous session?

    Basically, I close firefox with all my open tabs and then did not realize that a window was open. I closed the pop-up window without thinking about it, and now when I click on 'restore previous session' it restores just the a pop up.

    The usual method is:

    (1) exit Firefox normally, and these changes must happen:

    • Recovery.js is moved to the folder sessionstore-backups on the main level of the profile folder and renamed sessionstore.js
    • Recovery.bak is deleted sessionstore-backups

    (2) Once Firefox has stopped updating things, and rename sessionstore.js sessionstore.old

    (3) copy the file that you want to restore and rename sessionstore.js

    (4) start Firefox and it should read sessionstore.js and move it to the folder sessionstore-backups as previous.js

    It works for you - are the tabs old restoration-able?

  • HELP PLEASE! I lost about 400 GB of MP4 (film and audio book) using Chkdsk files. He repaired broken sectors/files regardless, but it changed the extentions. How can I find new extensions? they are there, but I don't know how to find them.

    I have Vista Home Premium. I have a huge media collection for my ipod. I save all my video files and files on an external hard drive (my book 500 GB) audiobook while they clutter up my internal drive and so I can store them where my internal drive has failed somehow... Well I got the opposite happens. I started to get my video files would not open in their records. I ran Chkdsk utility to "fix" the files. When the program has finished running he had a Msg: something has changed the names of files and everything I was supposed to go to the files and the rear switch (as far as I can remember... I don't wear SPECIAL attention for the MSG that I thought it was normal and the program would take me to the files when it was done... ERROR. All desktop shortcuts no longer find files directly by going to my computer, then by looking at the HD I cannot find the files.  I used the program REcuva file hippo and it restores the few files that have been deleted out of the dirve and allowed to see some of the video files and audio books (but no tag info remained on the recovered files. I had to so I would like to know what they rename them). Other than these few files... less than 20 I t help either. Records that they are still there, but it asks me to open files with a program from a list of choices and not of the program draw files. (the choice to choose this high program open this type of file is also blacked out). Also when I run the cursor over the records of the size of the files do not match wat I know should be in the files. But if I just look at the my computer screen and run the cursor over the icon of the letter itself it show that there is 435 + GB hard disk info and 50 + GB of space left on it.
    A few questions:
    1. is it possible to see all the possible msg that the command chkdsk can generate so I can find that he gave me when he fixed my files?
    2 - How can I find these files if I don't know the extensions I'm looking for? they were for quicktime mp4 files, but I don't know now.
    3 - If the drive to my drive internal and try to list the backup files is located on the drive where I'd start trying to open the files?
    4 do I just need to cut my losses and reformat the hard disk, crying over 2 years, he took me to build the library and start over again >? (at least I kept some of my files from itunes library since itune on DVD about 1.5 years ago (about 300 GB of data there))
    And by the way the reader is set up to the FAT 32 format, that I did not know until this all happened.

    Go to start / Control Panel / folder Options / View and uncheck Hide extensions for known file types.  You should also check the box to see the system and hidden files while you're there.  This should show you the extensions of all files if that is the problem.  You can then rename the files for extensions are associated with a program that will open and read the files (you may need to experiment first with some programs to find one that works and an extension that works if they have been changed).  I don't know any way to do this for all files at once - they will have to be renamed individually (yes - I realize counts the number of files involved, but I know of no program in Vista or even a 3rd party program that will change the extensions for a group of files at a time - you can check for yourself on www.tucows.com and www.download.com).

    Desktop Shortcuts no longer work because either the file type of the source file has changed and the shortcut does not open the file, or because the file has been moved and the shortcut can not find the path.  You should be able to check the path by finding files (whatever they are now called) and see if they are in the same directories in path as they were before this happened.  I think it's because the source file works more correctly because of the extension (or corruption).

    Recuva to recover lost or deleted files - not the files that are on the system (and you won't not solve your problem by deleting them and then use Recuva to recover because it sounds like the problem is with the extensions and Recuva is not going to be able to correct it (it is not part of his program)).

    There's no list of ALL possible messages that might be generated by chkdsk I know.  Here is an article on the chkdsk command works in XP and some messages it generates - but far from everything and nothing look like the one you receive (and it works essentially the same under Vista): http://www.isd518.net/District/TechDir/Help/Chkdsk.htm.

    The backup on your internal hard disk drive will not solve the problem - just move it.  The 'damage' to the files are already done a backup now will not solve anything.  The fact that the drive is set up in format FAT32 is not the question (and probably not the question in the first place is) and change to NTFS now is not going to solve the problem (although you can do that after all this has been resolved).

    I won't tell you to cut your losses - this is a pretty drastic step and there may still be other options (although I don't know myself).  You can take the reader to a recovery expert data (NOT Geek Squad or one of these other major centres to store) which may be able to recover some, most, or all files.  It will be expensive and only you can decide if it's worth the cost.  These people usually the game fee and do not offer a guarantee of recovery - even if they don't recover anything you always pay.  The decision is yours.

    If none of this works, transfer your question in images and videos Forum at: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistapictures/threads where people who specialize in issues related to the video may be able to help with your problem, since it's video files.

    I hope this helps.

  • 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:

    Hello, by default the firefox session restore feature only allows you to save last 3 windows open. to change this, type on: config in the address bar of firefox (confirmed the message information where it appears) and search for the preference named browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo. Double-click it and change its value to 4 (or more).

    Question
    I can't get the tabs of the previous session of the return when I reopen it Firefox. I tried closing with 'Close' header of Firefox window, but also 'Quit' in the file Menu. Note that "Restoration of previous Session" on my Menu history is grayed out so I can't use it. In addition, there is no tab at the top of my window to open Firefox Firefox - only a menu bar that shows "File", "Edit", "View", "History", "Favorites", "Tools" and "Help". I am running Windows 7 Home Professional and Firefox 4.01

    "I can't do the tabs from the previous session of the return when I reopen it Firefox.

    Make sure that you are not clearing history during a session or when Firefox is closed. See:

    • Clear recent history: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Clear%20Recent%20History

    "There is no Firefox tab at the top of my Firefox window open - only a menu bar.

    The Firefox button is supposed to be on by default in Vista and Windows 7.

    In Firefox 4, you have the choice of using the Firefox (orange or grey) button in the upper left or the menu bar (File, Edit, View, history, Favorites, tools.) Help).

    • The selections on the Firefox button are distinguished by the menu bar options.
    • You can easily switch between the Menu bar and the Firefox button or leave one or the other active.
    • One used depends on if the Menu bar is enabled
      • Bar menu checked = Bar Menu on, Firefox off button
      • Bar menu unchecked = Menu Bar off, Firefox button on

    When the Firefox button appears and you want to temporarily view and use the menu bar, press ALT or F10 displays the menu bar and you can make your selections in the Menu bar displayed temporarily.

    To check (or uncheck) the menu bar, do one of the following:

  • 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...
    Click on restore the previous session.
