Opening previous tabs doesn't work
Everything was alright; I had the "restore the tabs and widnows from the prvious session" selected, but today, after closing Firefox because of an error (supposedly because a game was closing, and too many things were opened), a new homepage, Gazeta.pl, opened when I opened FF again. I have never set the page to Gazeta.pl before, nor have I changed the tab restoring option in the settings. I had many tabs, 30+, opened, and all of them are lost now - I managed to recall noly about ten of them. The option doesn't work until now, despite the fact that the option is still chosen. Why is it happening? What can I do to fix it? I have read that people tried reinstalling Firefox, but it didn't help; I didn't find a solution to my problem in the end.

hello, this sounds like a problem possibly caused by adware on your pc. please go to firefox > addons > extensions & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc). also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and do a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner.

Thank you, that seems to solve my problem. I've no idea where the TroubleShooter came from, but I removed it and everything is alright now. Thanks! :)
