Why Firefox doesn't save my tabs from the previous session although I chose to do it in the options?

• Why firefox doesn't save my settings?

  I just use a registry cleaner (Untiitled_ Tool Box) and now all my settings on Firefox are gone. And even if I redo my settings (homepage, modules, etc.), when I close Firefox and reopen, I am sent to the first time user page "Welcome to Firefox" and none of my previous settings have been saved.

  IMO, a Reset probably won't fix a registry problem.

  If the registry has been cleaned, the user must reinstall Firefox to get the good restored registry setting.

• Cannot restore my tabs from a previous session. I closed my browser. Here's what happened:

  (a) I opened Firefox a totally blank page (without tab or anything like that), and a title bar (which I normally do not have) says "Mozilla Start Page.
  (b) I closed and reopened Firefox again, and my previous session was missing. The two places were you can restore your previous session of grayed out.
  (c) according to the instructions provided to other users, I went my sessionstore.js file. I didn't have one at all, so I created a change of name previous.js. Sessionstore.bak would be no help, as it was created when I have opened my browser.
  (d) of course, because I didn't have an origin sessionstore.js work, thus creating one did not.
  (e) before you ask, Yes, I have "restore my tabs from last time" configured.

  Any ideas? I would like to help, please!

  In rare cases, an update may fail completely replace the old files of version with the new version of the files in the program folder. This can lead to a range of inexplicable failure. Another explanation is available, could you answer that using:

  Clean reinstall it

  We use this name, but it isn't about deleting your settings, this is to ensure that the program, files are clean (not incompatible, corrupt or exotic code files). As described below, this process does not disrupt your existing settings. Don't uninstall NOT Firefox, that does not need.

  (1) download a fresh Installer for Firefox 39.0 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, either:

  (Windows 64-bit folder names)

  C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
  

  TO

  C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox
  

  (Windows 32-bit folder names)

  C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
  

  TO

  C:\Program Files\OldFirefox
  

  (4) run the installer you downloaded in the #1. It should automatically connect to your existing settings.

  No improvement after this reinstall?

  Note: Some plugins can only exist in this OldFirefox file. If it is missing something essential, present in these files:

  • \OldFirefox\Plugins
  • \OldFirefox\browser\plugins

• By clicking on an icon home re - opens a lot of tabs from a previous session, even if I closed with "Exit and save" with only two legs

  For the comm.

  I'm a little frustrated. I had a session with maybe 20 open tabs. I closed the browser by selecting just "Quit". Whenever a new start, all these tabs open again. So - I delete them all and let two tabs open. My home page and my email page say. Then I left and select "Save and Quit".

  I start again - and all is well. Only two tabs there. I support on ^ T to open another tab. Do something and get tired of deicide both to display my home page in this tab - so I click on the Home icon below the menu bar - and guess what - all those f * k 20. tablets reappear remember all these ugly sites I looked at weeks.

  Can you please clean this behavior?

  Thank you

• Why firefox doesn't do content XML like the other browsers?

  I am learning AJAX and PHP and have problems with certain exercises. The .php file renders fine in Chrome and Edge (in folding tree), but not in Firefox. See attachments. What could be the cause of this (mis) behavior?

  It seems that Firefox isn't finding your XSL stylesheet or does not apply to it.

  Can you provide a link to your PHP page so someone could take a look?

• Firefix shows tabs from a previous session despite the sealing to the Home Page or blank Page

  When I first start Firefox (31.0), all the previous browsing session tabs are displayed. If you have a few news sites such as home pages, then you get yesterdays new shown to you.

  I tried to go options and the setting for "when Firefox starts:" is set to "show my home page". I tried to adjust to "Show a blank page" but it makes no difference, I still get the tabs that were open when I closed the browser.

  From Firefox in safe mode makes no difference - I still get the legs of the previous browsing session. I have not recently added additional modules.

  How to get back control how Firefox start?

  You can check if you have a user.js file in the Firefox profile folder that affects the pref browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once true value.

  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once

  You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

• Aurora does not reopen the windows and tabs from the previous session.

  I just upgraded to Aurora 12.0 has, and now every time I restart Firefox, it does not re - open my windows and tabs from my previous session. It is a _major_ pain, that I keep in general 75-100 tabs open for different uses, to a point. Fortunately, Xmarks has my tabs open saved, but I have to reopen individually whenever I restart Firefox.

  Thank you. After continue to dig and search, I came across this post on MozillaZine:

• Why can't I save my tabs when I leave the Firefox browser?

  That is to say where is the option that was available in the previous version of firefox?

  I don't care for the option 'open Web browsers for the last time' since I can not want to save my tabs each and every time, not to mention the fact that it is bulky fucking to continue to go into the menu options to switch between "show my home page" and "my tabs" every time, I use firefox. I mean honestly.

  And not even mention the option 'restore previous session '. I can't help but feel like I'm asking this is that hard to implement. Why was the first place he removed? It's very important for me, when Firefox will ask: "Do you want firefox saves your tabs for the next time" when I closed the window, and there was an option to stop the firefox asking for those interested.

  Please bring back this feature, it should be of perfect for my needs. I hope people remember of what I am referring. I hope that "subject: config" has an option to bring back...

  You can have things the old-fashioned way, and even if you do not choose to restore your tabs the next time Firefox starts, you can always restore your through your history as John99 mentioned, if you change your mind after you restart Firefox.

  See point #31 in the following text
  Restore the tabs of a lost session done now after restarting via the History menu ('Alt + S') 'restore previous session'.

  You can always have old messages, to ensure that you get your tabs immediately restored, but with or without messages and depending on how you respond to the message, you can still get your previous session via the history menu back.

• Why firefox, send emails to my contacts from my e-mail invite them to learn more about Firefox Hello?

  Why firefox, send emails to my contacts from my e-mail invite them to learn more about Firefox Hello?

  Thanks for the clarification on the h which is exactly the test/email that gets sent when you or someone on your pc is to create a conversation of Hello firefox and click the "link email" to invite another person to this conversation. This is something that happens and gets sent after manual steps by the user, so there should not be a reason to worry about this.

  Alternatively, you can try it yourself as described in:

• Want Firefox to save your tabs for the next time it starts?

  FF 27.0.1 on Linux Mint XFCE 16, up to date.

  I have my preferences set to "show my home page".

  Whenever I close FF with the X in the upper left corner, he gets up and asks me "do you want Firefox to save your tabs for the next time it starts? I check the box to ask next time and have tried both save and exit and just left. When I open the browser again, it seems to randomly decide to open all the tabs I had last time, or sometimes (rarely) just my home page tabs.

  I don't want to open all the tabs I had open, and I don't want the question whenever I have leave FF. I used FF for years with XP, but I am new to Mint.

  Done setting the prefs 'warnon' on the topic: config false page has an effect any?

• Why you put "Open a new tab" on the right side of the browser, when you close a tab on the left and you type a new URL in the browser on the left?

  I changed my computer from XP to Windows 7 and migrated my FF browsers. But... now the tabs at the top of the page are all right (they were upper-front left - where I loved her)

  The most important is the "open a new tab" + - is on the right. But that is not sensible. Why you put "Open a new tab" on the extreme right of the browser, when you close a tab on the left and you type a new URL in the browser on the left?

  How can I put my "open a new tab" immediately to the right of 'Close tab' - as if it was before?

  Please advise?

• How to remove 'Save as PDF' from the popup menu

  The item 'Save as PDF' leads to a shopping site called NITRO. I'm trying to eliminate it from the context menu. I installed the add-on Menu Edit and changed the item save as PDF from the visible to hidden on my PC Windows with Firefox 30 8.1. However, the issue has not disappeared from the context menu. Still on my PC with Linux Mint 17 with 30 Firefox for Linux Mint, the point went on the shortcut menu. My PC s linked with Firefox Synch.

  How can I remove this?

  Such an entry in the context menu is probably added by a PDF file about the extension, in order to check your extensions.

  Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.
