  Boot from the Windows 7 DVD
  Click Install now
  Accept the license agreement
  When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

  Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 7 click Next.

  You will receive the following warning:

  The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

  (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

  The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

  Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

  You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

• The "Show my windows and tabs from last time' did not work

  I had just updated my KMPlayer and the new drive installed an add-on to find key that ruined my whole internet browsers...
  affecting Firefox, IE key home page - find the page, I tried to change the homepage on a show, my last session one and it always return to the home page, which is the key - find page:

  and after I uninstalled it, it is always to have the effect it
  so I thought to change the regedit, but I can only change which opened in my home page, the home page is more key-find page, I changed it to www.google.com
  But the problem persists again, tried to change the home page to "show my windows and tabs from last time" he'll always recover option from the home page...

  anyway to help me clean this mess up? It's bad because I can't use my last session tabs because it is faster than clicking on bookmarks...

  changed my mind, after a reboot of the PC is fixed, the add-on find key required a reboot

• Options set for the windows and tabs from last time

  Hello

  I put "Options/général" to display the tabs from last time. very suddenly earlier this week Firefox (I use Version 31) stop n apparent reason and since my tabs are is no longer registered despite article in the 'general' still reading of "save windows and tabs from last time '. How can I fix this? I tried one of the suggestions - remove the tick in the box next to 'do not load the tabs until you have chosen', but this made no difference. What I need to change something in the ' subject: config ' file?

  As well as to happen, my favorites have changed as well. Initially, the Bookmarks imported from Internet Explorer, and those created in Firefox was in a continuous string. There is now a separate file containing bookmarks to Internet Explorer. Is it possible to combine the two sets of bookmarks in a game as they were before?

  I know that the 31 Version has been updated, but the reason that I have not updated my current setup is that whenever I update Firefox something unexpected or undesirable occurs.

  It is best to not double-click the .js files: flowing through a shell script from Windows with potentially unpredictable consequences. To display as text, you can right-click > edit the .js file. (However, these files contain data which are difficult to interpret.)

  When the restoration of previous Session is grayed out, it can mean that Firefox (1) already restored your previous session or Firefox (2) did not find a historic session file. In this case, it seems that the #1 is more likely.

  The session history works in real time? I mean, if you right click on a link and open it in a new window, then close this window, the menu history lists it as a window, you can restore?

  So if you exit Firefox and restart it upward, is the closed window still listed in the history as a window menu, you can restore?

• Why my "display windows and tabs from last time ' does not work?

  Hi all

  I used to have my settings set to "display windows and tabs from last time." For some reason, it does not. Whenever I close my tabs, Firefox warns you me I close many tabs, and when I reopen it Firefox, I only get my home page.

  In the menu options, I put 'windows and tabs from last time' options, and in private life, I have "Firefox will remember history", so I do not think it is related to my settings.

  I saw a thread on 'browser.sessionstore.enabled' must be true about: config, but I don't have even a name preference that says "browser.sessionstore.enabled. Maybe that's the problem? If so, I have NO IDEA how to fix this. I only am not at all computer savvy.

  If someone could find a solution to this very annoying problem, I would be very grateful. If it takes a lot of work of programming/techno, please be VERY descriptive (pretend I'm a 5 year old child in giving directions).

  Thank you!

  Browser.sessionstore.Enabled is no longer used, worry not if you can't find it.

  In case you use "clear history of Firefox closing:

  • do not erase browsing history – which will prevent the restoration of the work session.

• Tabs session restore when Firefox 28 is reopened, I put: when Firefox starts drop-down menu, select Show my windows and tabs from last time

  When opening Firefox 28 tabs in my last session are restored. I put (see my homepage) on the General Settings page, this is a recent problem. I disabled all the (Add ons). Ideas for me.

  One of the possible reasons are if Firefox is of the opinion that it crashed during the last closure. He will try to return to your previous session after a crash. (This can be changed if necessary by using the hidden settings).

  Another possible reason is a file user.js which contains a preference to return to your previous session once, the substitution of your normal setting. This article describes how to check for this possibility: How to fix preferences that will not save.

  Could you check this and a report on the question to know if you find something?

  Note: If you find a file named user but not user.js, Windows can hide the extensions of file on your part. To work with files as accurately as possible, I suggest their display. This Microsoft support article has the steps: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/865219.

• Windows and tabs from last time - 13.0 problem

  Even thought is selected the option ' when Firefox starts to show my windows and tabs from last time ", I always get the default page of Firefox.

  I have awkward posted two questions. Problem is solved here

• In version 13.0 is selected the option "when Firefox starts to show my windows and tabs from last time", but I always get default page of Firefox.

  Even thought is selected the option ' when Firefox starts to show my windows and tabs from last time "I always have the default page of Firefox.

  Hi Goldie_,

  I guess you don't watch this page when you closed Firefox last time. Also that you are not in private, correct navigation mode? Looks like it is maybe a problem with Firefox being able to save your file pref.js. You should try the steps listed in the preferences section that won't save trouble. Try and let me know how it goes.

  Hope this helps!

• Firefox 10.0.2: Show my windows and tabs from last time no longer works

  After reclassification of the 10.0.1 to 10.0.2, the feature to display the windows and tabs from the previous session has stopped working and it just opens the home page.

  10.0.1, closing of Firefox with several tabs open is enough to close it. On the restart, all the front legs are shown.

  In 10.0.2, closing of Firefox with several tabs open the message that I am about to close several tabs appears. He launched on the restart, only the home page.

  Use ' Firefox/file > output "(Mac: ' Firefox > quit smoking";) Linux: "file > exit ') to close Firefox if you're doing that by clicking on the X close in the title bar.

  Using the "Show my windows and tabs from last time" is a more reliable way to restore the session data.

  • Tools > Options > general > startup: "When Firefox starts": "show my windows and tabs from last time '.

  Make sure that you do not use 'Clear history of Firefox closing' to clear the browsing history.

• Despite instructions from the help to get Firefox to show my windows and tabs from last time, when I close Firefox and reopen it, my windows and tabs are not there. What can I do?

  Whenever I close Firefox (when I'm leaving for a few days, or when the office closes from one day to the next day for some reason toher) and reopen it, the tabs that I got at the last session (usually calendar Google and Facebook) not open automatically. Google gmail tab is there - and I am sure that I always have to login.
  The indications 'Aid' Firefox says (1) close by clicking the Firefox button at the top of the window, then clicking on "exit". To open, click Firefox at the top, click on 'Options', select 'Général' and select ' show my windows and tabs from last time. " The option 'Show my windows etc.' was already there, but I clicked OK, then closed according to the instructions and open - Firefox to not see any tabs and windows but Google gmail.

  Previous Session Restore appears only on the homepage by default - Subject: House - not on the old Firefox Google start page - http://www.google.com/firefox or any other user defined homepage.

  There is also a menu item in the history of previous Session Restore, which does the same thing as on the subject: homepage.

• 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:
  http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=23 & t = 2420099

  It seems that the problem was the module associated with as opposed to something in Firefox itself.

• "Show my windows and tabs from last time ' has stopped working after software updated to the end of January or early February. Now on 12.0a2. Change options "Auora to start: ' no longer works.

  I use this feature for years and update Firefox/Aurora in the next few days, maybe a week, an update becomes available and everything suddenly ' show my windows and tabs from last time ' has stopped working. I can go to the Tools-Option-general tab and change "at Aurora startup:" to this option, or 'Show my home page (s)' and now the opening in a new tab single even though I have URLs there. This may mean that this bit is not read correctly. I'm not playing: config, but I watch a few spoken options in the Web and everything looked OK.

  I would uninstall and reinstall it if you think it will solve the problem. I updated Aurora again because this problem started and it remains broken. It is a system of XP with SP3

  PS: I have two other windows with a XP and the other Windows 7. When I had the problem on my primary XP System I stopped to make updates to other systems. Today I updated the two other systems with the latest Auora (skip one or two updates) and both work very well.

  The best way for me to trouble?

  Hey punchcard4rjw,

  Have you tried to start Firefox in Mode safe? Key 'shift' startup of Firefox. If it doesn't happen in Mode without failure, you should read the extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common troubleshooting Firefox problems.

  If this does not work, you should look the article How to fix preferences that will not save.

  Hope this helps!
