lol. you don’t have to do anything. it automatically remembers the tab.
1.close your firefox with few tabs
2.it will warn you, just click close
3.open firefox
4.click restore session

Thanks Raymond!.. i wander if it can be applied to Opera?

I have try this before, but not working..
I will try this again.. :)

@Raymond If one thing is easy, why you try to do hard?

Thank you! This just saved my life =)

@kedar
That only happens with me when I force close Firefox or it crashes, which are actually the same thing.

Thanks for the warning and instructions. I’ve made the switch to Opera (where this is never an issue) because I don’t care for some of the changes FF made in version 4. Still, I will eventually get around to installing it – always good to have a backup browser – and I will definitely want to make this change.

May I say, very belatedly, it is great to have you back.

thanks for the tip!

@Dan
Changing it in the Options page would load tabs from the previous session every single time,whether you want them or not.
Changing the config.on the other hand,merely gives you an option every time where you can specify if you want the previous session tabs to load the next time you open the browser.Much better if you don’t want to keep changing the options every time.

thnks mate , u r superman !

how can i do that in Chrome ?

Hi Raymond – have you looked at the Bartab extension as an much more user friendly alternative to keeping a list of tabs/sites? Life saver for me – regularly have 4/5 windows and 100+ tabs ‘open’ this way without any slowdown at all – only a few of your recently used tabs will be loaded/active, the rest are like placeholders which are reloaded when you click on them.

Firefox remembers your tabs without having to do all that. Just close Firefox with any amount of tabs and when you open again, on the default homepage, just click restore tabs.
and you can change what your homepage settings is by just going to the options menu and in the general section make sure you chose windows and tabs from last time.

That was a great call on save and quit. Do you know how to speed up u torrent while on wifi or public internet. I thank you for your help.

Thanks. I knew you could do this but could not find the line on about:config. Very helpful

Worked a treat, thankyou!

you rock! thanks much.

It’s works. Thanks a lot

Thank you very much for sharing :D

i love you

hi!thanx for the info! it’s very helpful since i wal almost frustrated with the ‘non-save tabs’.

Thanks Raymond,

What the frig was the matter with the Firefox deveolpers not making the save tabs option default??

Thanks a lot for the info. It worked for me.

excellent :) thanx

Thanks a lot. you are a real hero..

I think I know why developer disable this function by default.

Because now when you exit a browser. It does automatically save by default.

You can set up it in

Options> General> When firefox starts “Show my windows and tabs from last time”

thanx alot for this wonderful tip :)

wow thank you

Thx alot.

Thank you.

Thanks a ton!!!

Thanks. This is a feature I use a lot.

tq very much…its work

Thank a lot !!

I was wondering where this had disappeared to!

I’m really glad I found your page. Very helpful and clearly presented. Thank you.

Thanks! That was a very easy solution to a problem that I found totally frustrating! I was planning to switch back to the old Firefox already…

Finally I can save my tabs !
Thnx .. it works

thanks!!!

Thanks a lot!

hey thanks a lot

tbh silly idea to change this setting by mozilla, Its pretty obvious that people want to keep there tabs history

an own goal I think but thanks for this solution my friend

huzzzah!

strange decision by the developers to change the option, but thanks for the tutorial!

Perfect. :) I really missed this feature since updating. I’m glad they didn’t totally get rid of it. Thanks for the walk-through!

Excellent, it was wery simple and useful!
Thanks a lot!

never posted on a forum before. this had prompted me to.

Thanks :) very easy to understand and works great :) thanks :)

thank you , it’s important for me

you made it so simple AND easy to understand with your screen shots. Well done! Thank you!
Have a great day, Raymond!

Hi, I did the above: ” 1. Type about:config at the address bar and hit enter.

2. Click the “I’ll be careful, I promise!” button

3. At the filter bar, type browser.showQuitWarning and hit enter.

4. You can either double click on it to change the value from false to true, or right click on it and select Toggle.”

But it doesn’t ask me if I want to save my tabs, it just closes – and saves the tabs, but I would like to have it question me if I want to save the tabs.

Any suggestions?

Thank you SO much for this! Wish I’d read it before uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox…several times.

oh thank you thank you thank you! I lost them all because I didn’t have time to search how to do this last night, but I didn’t want the internet on all night. I was not a happy camper – so thank you! you made my morning!

Great tip…thanks!

Thx, Raymond. And i guess sysulzh is right. You can restore the previous session from the history menu.

If you forget things quite often or just like being asked every time, this is the way to go.

But, what i really think as lame is that “Firefox” button. It added a useless step on selecting options. You can roll back to Firefox 3 style, by right clicking an “empty” space in the browser and click “Menu Bar”.

thanks a lot..:)

You are a lifesaver
Thanks you so much =)

Oh, It was very valuable thanks allot :))

Thanks a lot works great!!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! IT WORKED FOR ME!!!!! ;))))
