Ever since the last Firefox update on Feb 28, 2023, my open tabs are no longer being restored when I re-open Firefox after closing it down. After doing some searches on the issue, I checked my "Settings page, Privacy & Security panel, History section" and it still shows "Remember history". (This is on a laptop running Windows 10.) This is a huge inconvenience for me. Is this a bug or is there some way for me to fix it? I'm not a techie, so appreciate a response without too much jargon. Thank you!

Did you check the settings for "Clear history when Firefox closes" ?

In case you use "Clear history when Firefox closes" or otherwise clear history.

  • do not clear the "Browsing history"
  • Settings -> Privacy & Security
    Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history":
    [X] "Clear history when Firefox closes" -> Settings
