Opening Firefox from a link restores previous session. Opening from Menu doesn't.

I've been using Firefox on Ubuntu since years ago, I use Firefox Sync and I have the browser configured to always restore previous session.

Some days ago I installed KDE desktop (I don't know if it has something to do with the issue) but since then, if I open Firefox from the panel or the KDE menu, it neither restore the previous session nor logs in Firefox Sync.

Either if I leave that new window open or not, If I click a http/https link, for example, from a Thunderbird email, it will open a new Firefox window with the last session and Firefox Sync logged in.

So, if I want to start with the last session tabs, I must open Firefox from an external link.

What can be the reason?

Thanks in advance!

Well, my first message wasn't accurate enough. Looks like the issue only happens when opening from then anchored icon in panel, but not from menu, so it must be something related to KDE.

Hola, No veo problemas declarados con el KDE y la restauración de la ultima sesión en el foro de bugs: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=KDE Las ultimas sesiones es un archivo (sessionstore.jsonlz4) que se almacena en la carpeta del perfil por lo tanto si el Firefox esta configurado para levantar las esas sesiones solo tiene que leer dicho archivo, podría ser que el Firefox desde el menú abra un perfil y el icono otro perfil pero esto el Firefox debería tener 2 perfiles, pero es una suposición, no he visto este problema en otros sistemas operativos ni tampoco consultas aquí sobre Linux. Si el Firefox no tiene mas de un perfil podrías probar: borrar el icono del acceso directo y crearlo nuevamente, restablecer el Firefox o crear un perfil nuevo del Firefox. De continuar el problema deberías abrir un caso en el foro de los desarrolladores de Mozilla: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org y luego copiar el link aquí Gracias
