Sessionstore.js emptied after restart. Why?
When I properly close Firefox -when it asks to save my tabs, I chose Save and Quit-, it does not show any error message when quitting, but when the next time I restart Firefox, it loses my previous 24 tabs (OK, maybe it's too much? Tell me if it is improper use), ans the sessionstore.js file, which by default stores the URLs for previous tabs is also emptied. It usually restores my tabs normally, so my settings in general should be OK, but after a while, let's say after the 50th restart it forgets my previous tabs.
Do you also have the same problem? Personally I use the Portable version of Firefox. So, if no one has the same problem, then I should ask them about the problem?
Many thanks!

Thomas,
The Downloads windows is not open, and Firefox asks me:
"Do you want Firefox to save your tabs for the next time it starts?"
And I say: "Save and Quit". -
Inappropriate?do you have
"Always clear my private data when I close Firefox"
box ticked in Tools -> Options, "Privacy" section?
If so, click the "Settings" button, see which boxes are ticked in that dialog.
If "Visited pages" is ticked, then it's possible that is what is overriding your sessionstore.js
Otherwise, if you are wanting the tabs restored every time, the "main" section has a dropdown next to "when Firefox starts" with one of the options being "show my windows and tabs from last time". Then they will be restored automatically each time without prompting on exit.1 Comment Add a comment

BugMeNot,

Yes, I chose to clear my data, expect for Browsing History, which I chose not to clear.
As I said, roughly out of 49 times of 50, Firefox reloads the tabs with next restart, 1 in 50 times it loses them.

Where is this "Visited pages" which you refer to? I can't find it.
