Chosen solution

Are you keeping the history?

  • Do not use "Clear history when Firefox closes" to clear the "Browsing History".

Does it work if you select this?

  • Tools > Options > General > Startup: When Firefox Starts:
    • Show my windows and tabs from last time

You can also test for problems with Session Restore:
