    Any ideas?

    Did you check in [HISTORY] ?


    Just checked. "Recently Closed Tabs/Windows" both grayed out.
    But, yes, history will be quite helpful.

    Firefox often prompts to restore tabs after abnormal shutdown but NOT
    this time.

    When I see this it usually means that there is another Firefox
    Window open. But surely you have bookmarked the most important ones.
    and can dig the rest out of your memery. ;^)

    Won't help you now but consider using Tab Session Manager extension. It
    auto saves your tabs every x-minutes just in case FF doesn't come back
    with open tabs where you left off (if/when it crashes).

    Thanks for the hint. I am passing it oe.
    Updates and simply digital weirdness saddle me with the rebuiding a session way too often.
    Thank again

    Maybe I'm paranoid but 'read and modify browsing history' doesn't give me
    a warm feeling.
