when i close firefox with multiple active tabs, it doesn't offer a "save tabs and close" option, how to fix it and to save tabs when exit?
i have installed Firefox 4.0.1 Now, when i close the program with multiple opened tabs, it doesn't offer an option to Save Tabs and Quit. Could not find anything about it in Security or Privacy Options. How can i make it save opened tabs when i quit, so that a will not need to enter all needed sites again when i reopen the program?

By default, Firefox 4 will not ask to save tabs, but instead it will always save your tabs on exit unless you are in Private Browsing mode. You can restore them next time by:
- clicking Firefox button > History >"Restore Previous Session", or
- type about:home in the URL bar and press the Enter key, then press the "Restore Previous Session" button
Note: This was a decision by the developers. On this forum, we are all uncompensated volunteers here to help other users. The developes/employees of Mozilla/Firefox rarely, if ever visit here.
Some things to check:
- Browsing history must be saved
- Firefox button: Firefox button > Options > Options > Privacy > [X] Remember my browsing history
- Menu Bar: Tools > Options > Privacy > [X] Remember my browsing history
- Also make sure you do not clear "Browsing History" when using Clear Recent History or when closing Firefox
- Using Clear Recent History
- Firefox button: Firefox button > History >Clear Recent History
- Menu Bar: Tools > Clear Recent History
- When closing Firefox
- Firefox button: Firefox button > Options > Options > Privacy (checked) > Settings
- Menu Bar: Tools > Options > Privacy (checked) > Settings
- See: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Clear%20Recent%20History
- Using Clear Recent History
- Make sure you are not in Private Browsing mode or in permanent Private Browsing mode:
- If you have theTab Mix Plus extension, then disable the built-in session restore.
To display the "Save Tabs and Exit" message when closing multiple tabs, you can do the following:
- Type about:config in the URL/Location/Address bar and press the Enter key
- Accept the warning message (promise to be careful)
- The preferences page/list will open
- Filter = browser.tabs.warnOnClose
- If its value is set to false, double-click on it (in the lower panel) to toggle its value to true
- Repeat steps 4 and 5 for these following 3 preferences also:
- browser.warnOnQuit
- browser.warnOnRestart
- browser.showQuitWarning
- Note: last pref is new in Firefox 4b12, may need to add (boolean)

1. Type about:config at the address bar and hit enter.

4. You can either double click on it to change the value from false to true, or right click on it and select Toggle.
If any of the other 3 prefs are not correctly set, OR
