I hope I'm in the right place for this -- I don't see a separate Mac Firefox forum, so here goes.

I'm a new Mac user. With my Windows version of Firefox, whenever I close the browser after a long session, it asks me if I want to close all the tabs. And when I restart it, it asks me if I want to reopen the tabs from my last session.

The Mac version asks me if I want to close all tabs, but I don't get the option or reopening them on a restart. Is there a setting somewhere I can change to get that effect? I looked but could not find.

Thanks,

Basically it is Firefox -> Preferences -> Main -> Startup -> When firefox starts -> "show my windows and tabs from last time".
IF you shutdown windows while firefox is still running firefox regards this as crash and offers the crash restore.

P.S -- Trolly -- I noticed your .sig file quote after I sent that Quick Reply chilling thought. Probably not too far off the mark, either. How little we have learned in two millennia...

How true, how true.
