What should I do if "Recently closed Windows" shows nothing?

• How to re - activate the functions 'Restore previous Session', "Recently closed tabs" and "Recently closed Windows" in the menu of history?

  For some time, four choices in the restore section (tabs of other devices, Previous Session Restore recently closed tabs and recently closed Windows) have been shaded. Keyboard shortcuts do not work, and didn't undo closed tab in the context menu of the tab.

  I found and tried various patches to do this, including:

  • From Firefox in Mode safe without addons.
  • Firefox reset.
  • Change the values of browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo and browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo in all: config.
  • Check to see if I have a user.js in profile Firefox. (I don't).
  • Verify that the private browsing is not the default mode. (It is not).
  • Create a profile to see if it had the same problem. (He did.)
  • Running anti-malware analysis. (BitDefender and SpyBot).
  • Temporarily disable my anti-virus and anti-malware.

  Any of these solve my problems.

  Other devices tab is grayed out, but I've never used, and it might have previously grayed out.

  The story works in general. Sites I visit are added to the log.

  Preferences are saved correctly when I change them.

  Any advice on how to solve the problem would be much appreciated, as I am very fond of these features and often served until they stopped working.

  ADDITIVE

  After that looking through the list of preferences of change created by the resolution of the problems, I tried now also reset the following text:

  • browser.places.smartBookmarksVersion
  • browser.newtabpage.storageVersion
  • Browser.cache.Disk.Capacity
  • Browser.cache.Disk.smart_size.first_run
  • Browser.cache.Disk.smart_size.use_old_max
  • Browser.cache.Disk.smart_size_cached_value

  The problem persists.

  I finally managed to understand this. In searching the Web, I found a thread detailing a similar problem on the Mozillazine forum. The problem has been identified as a missing browser.sessionstore.enabled set, so I went looking in Subject: config and couldn't find it. After creating the entry, by assigning the value true and restart Firefox, the functions of recovery/recently started working again. Apparently, some bookmark plugins and session-based can cause this problem, but in my case, it must have been something else, that I never had no such plug-ins installed.

  If you have this problem, here's a detailed itinerary of the way I fixed it. Whereas there seems to be several problems that can cause restore/recently functions to stop working, it is not a guaranteed fix, but it is still a thing to try, at least.

  1. Open a new tab or window.
  2. Type of topic: config address in the box and press ENTER.
  3. Read reviews and promise to be careful.
  4. Copy this: browser.sessionstore.enabled - and paste in Subject: config'search box in s. press ENTER.
  5. If you copied the text at the top right, the setting should appear in the list. If it is not the case, you have the same problem, I did. (I would say that you copy/paste the text indicated and only this text before moving on to double check).
  6. If the parameter does not exist, right click on the parameters of the list and choose new-> Boolean. Paste the parameter name that you copied previously in the name box, click OK and then set the Boolean true. Once you have click OK, restart Firefox, and (hopefully) things should work properly again.

  Thanks to everyone who offered help and thoughts!

• Empty windows appear in the recently closed Windows list

  Recently, I upgraded to Firefox 13.0.1. (It seems that he could have two updates on the same day or after the other very short, but I'm not sure of him. I will be reminding upgrades of multiple instances of Firefox, all this same version. Thus, it * could * be true that this problem has arisen with this version or a recent previous version.)

  Since the upgrade, empty windows appear in the list of recently closed Windows (RCWL). I try to keep the clean list, so when I'm done with a window holding sites I know I don't want to go back, I close all the tabs in the window, leaving an unused new tab *, and then close the window. These windows should not be included in the RCWL, but they are now.

  [* I put new tabs to about: blank so that they will load the pages automatically.]

  Since this standard behavior change comes with an upgrade, and since I can't find any reference to it elsewhere, including the Support of Mozilla, I suspect that it may be a new bug.

  In troubleshooting, I tried deleting the list recently closed in these windows and tabs. I've never had before, but it seemed worth trying and as something that might have been relevant. I thought that perhaps a window would not "Save as really empty ' if it had recently closed tabs in the list. This tactic did not work.

  I also tried to start Firefox in Mode safe, the reopening of all the RCWL, each one tab - a 'new tab' in all cases - closing then close each window. They always appear in the RCWL.

  Please let me know if I can (or need to) provide additional information. Thanks for any help!

  Try to set the browser.newtab.url pref to about: blank so currently, you do not use this parameter.

• change the number of recently closed windows, firefox remembers

  Hi, I want to increase the number of windows recently closed, who remembers to Firefox. Currently, he remembers three recently closed windows, but often when I click on hypertext links (no pop ups) they open automatically in a new window, which functionally removes the registration of windows I had open and he wanted to see again... that now they are gone, apparently forever. Is there some settings to change that? I don't need or want that Firefox remember my entire browsing history, I just want to be able to return on the 6 or 7 windows recently closed because 3 is not sufficient. Thank you.

  By default, Firefox stores only 10 "previously closed tabs" out the window and 3 'previously closed windows.' To increase these values:

  (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 preference browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo and enter your preferred Windows (I have 10).

  (4) If you want, double-click the preference browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo and enter your favorite number of tabs (I have 20).

• Failed to retrieve the recently closed windows browser tabs

  Yesterday, when I was not bothered just opening my browser, I opened a tab next to him do a little homework, and without thinking, I closed the browser with the last browser as well, which means I lost all my information from that, but didn't know until the next day.

  I had this kind of problems before, but I could watch my story, then re - open my window closed recently. This time, however when I tried to do the same thing the next day that the 'closed window' was grey, as if she did not save the things that I did not open before and the worst, it's that I've lost probably close or more than 200 tablets and this is not laugh, because all the things I had before were things that I was now and save for months until I went to use it.

  I tried to find a solution by looking at my story earlier and from back, but most of the information I had had been kept for a few months, which means that I can't check it out.

  Could I possibly want to ask you to find a solution for me please because this has gotten me very depressed that I can't get back the things I love as long as lose it depressed me to the point that I lied on my bed for a few hours without sleep.

  Thank you.

  Hi Firemonkey008, I guess the .bak file looks like a good candidate for the missing session very recently. That's what we hope to find. Yes, it's that you rename sessionstore.js to. You must rename or delete the existing sessionstore.js first, or Windows will not let you do the name change.

• What should I do to change my window 2000 nt operating system to something more recent

  I lose my data

  You can dual-boot 2000 and XP or Vista or Windows 7. Or all of them.

  But you'll need a pretty big hard drive. You can partition the hard drive (though if your hard drive is now small (the one with 2000 on this).) You may need to purchase a bigger. Then, you must reinstall 2000 again. Partition of the first hard before you do

• The 'Creative cloud' window shows nothing more than a spinning icon...

  I just pay for the CC of Photoshop version.  When I click on 'Download' the creative cloud window opens and I see is a blue - spinning icon... nothing else happens.

  Thoughts?

  Thank you.

  Hello
  I also had to do this experiment.
  Sometimes - for some reason-CC "unwilling" work. In this case you should CC completely remove and reinstall by using Adobe Creative cloud cleaning tool. (A try to uninstall by own resources is not enough!)

  I quote:... helps resolve installation problems for Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite (CS3 - CS6) applications. The tool removes the records facility for preliminary facilities of Cloud applications or Creative Suite creative. It does not affect existing installations of earlier versions of Creative Suite or creative Cloud applications.

  Please use: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html and follow the prescribed sequence of operations

  If necessary and for questions and so "open" Please use the cat, plus I had the best experiences.

• Recently closed tabs/windows/sessions permanently grayed out, Firefox home page search does not more

  Running Firefox 26 and recently closed/windows tabs session restore menu items are grayed out and never activate, I can't even use the shortcut (ctrl + shift + t)

  Also, I noticed the search firefox homepage has now stopped working, by clicking find just does nothing and even little ads mozilla which would show under the search bar disappeared

  I thought it was a question the profile/malicious module so I did a reset, which didn't work, so I uninstalled, removed personal customizations in uninstalling and doing a new installation of firefox, always the same questions...

  Scanned my computer with an analysis of the deep system using bitdefender updated 2013, no virus

  I don't have install all my previous modules (adobe pdf creator was automatically it then reinstall started but disabled) and sessionstore in all values: config are default and correct

  Help, please!

  After you have uninstalled firefox, remove all traces of the registry and installed a disc, many scans for malware, spyware and anti-virus and scans even programs programs, registry cleaning, I found that there are no problems with my computer

  I then tried to install an older version of firefox (v20) hoping that would solve the problem, to my surprise, everything finally worked!
  so I've updated to v26 and nothing worked as above!
  Then I tried downgraded v25 and once again everything worked!

  Since I understand that the issue was NOT with my profile, extensions, plugins, settings or whatever it is my fault, there is a problem with firefox 26 and more!

  If someone has similar problems, I recommend that you install a previous version of firefox and see how it works, disable automatic updates if that helps the issue
