I just upgraded from Ff3.6.1 to 4.0 When exiting Ff3.6.1 a dialog box would ask me if I wanted to save the tabs so that the next time I started Ff it would load the tabs for me. Neat feature. It appears to be gone in 4.0 I've looked in all the usual places, Tools/Options, etc. If you have it switched off , how do I switch it back on, or alternatevely, revert back to Ff3.6.1 ?

The prefs for the warning message have been set to false as the default in Firefox 4.

You can set the warn prefs on the about:config page to true via the right-click context menu or toggle with a double left-click. 

   * browser.tabs.warnOnClose , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/About%3Aconfig_entries
   * browser.warnOnQuit , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnQuit
   * browser.warnOnRestart , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnRestart

you forgot the most important one... the one that brings the "Save and Quit" back...

browser.showQuitWarning

has to be true.
