Firefox 4 Tabs

Hi guys. :) I just downloaded and installed Firefox 4 a couple of minutes ago and the first thing I noticed was, that when I was trying to exit Firefox with the tabs open, it wouldn't give me an option to save them. In Firefox 3, whenever you're exiting, you get an option to save tabs and exit, close tabs and exit, or cancel. Firefox 4 simply warns about how many tabs are open and that it will close them. Is the saving feature still intact in v4 and I'm just not able to find it or is it gone? If it is gone, is there an addon for this sort of feature? Any help regarding this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. :)

make sure that 'when firefox starts' it's set to 'show my windows and tabs from last time'

click ok and restart browser..

hope this works.

Feature is changed. Firefox always saves the tabs now, without any info. Next time you start Firefox, you'll see a big button under search bar where it says Restore Previous Season.

Cheers ;)

yes the feature is changed in FF 4 a bit, but not gone ..

you can click on the FF button after a restart , browse to history , and then click on - Restore previous session .

it would open up the last opened tabs .

you can also try this good extension - Session Manager . supports FF 4 .

@mara

on my side , i cant see any button , which says - Restore Previous Session .

you using any add on ?

can u post a screen shot ..
