I don’t know if this changed in FF 65, or some setting changed, but how do I get the “Restore Session” (about:sessionrestore) page to *always* show up upon startup? I use this basically every time I start it, and then have to Force Quit (crash) it intentionally to get it to automatically show it on the next startup. Now You: Have you disable quit warnings in Firefox? Google retired the command Ctrl-Shift-Q in Chrome recently. You could set the preferences to false to do so. It is easy enough to disable warnings if you use session restore or don't need them in general. The preferences browser.warnOnQuit or browser.warnOnClose are set to false.The browser is in Private Browsing Mode.įirefox 65 or newer won't display a warning if.The preference browser.warnOnQuit is set to false.The session will be restored on startup.Please note that Mozilla aims to make the change in Firefox 65 but that development and testing is ongoing and that things may change before release. Mozilla removed the session restore case from the process. I appreciate the logic ("you're not losing anything by quitting since session restore is awesome"), but it still causes a long startup time if you do it accidentally.įirefox 65 will display the warning even if session restore is enabled by default. However, when turning on Session Restore, this "never ask again" behavior is automatically enabled, which is confusing. Turning on session restore should not disable quit warnings by default in the browser. What it boils down to is that Firefox should not ignore the "warn on quit" preference of the browser even if session restore is enabled. Mozilla's train of thought was that Firefox would restore the tabs on the next start of the browser if session restore was enabled, and that it was not necessary therefore to warn users specifically.Ī nine year old bug report on highlights the reasoning behind the change.

Firefox users may use Ctrl-Shift-Q on Windows, Ctrl-Q on Linux, and Cmd-Q on Mac OS X to quit the browser.įirefox displays a warning in this case if multiple tabs are open but only if session restore is not enabled, if the user did not modify the preference responsible for the behavior, and if the browser is not in private browsing mode. Current versions of the Firefox web browser warn users under certain conditions by default when they use a keyboard shortcut or the quit commands in the menus to exit the browser.
