I used to be able to exit Firefox without closing all of the tabs that I was using. Now, every time I exit the program, I get a warning that all of the tabs will close. When did things change? Can I get back to leaving all of the tabs open when I exit so they load when I open the program again?

Is there a setting that I'm missing?

Thank you.

Hello mitrebox, go Tools > Options > General panel > Startup > When Firefox starts > SELECT Show my windows and tabs from last time

see : General tab - Startup
