A place to discuss the news and latest developments on the open-source browser Firefox
I generally have a "home" Firefox window with my most used tabs pinned. Sometimes I close it before another window, so I was frustrated to "lose" it and having to redo my pins. But recently I discovered this feature. Joy!
I also like that its PDF viewer opens exactly at where I left it at.
Saved my butt a few times already.
It works until Firefox applies updates and the next time you open it it automatically loads a "what's new in Firefox" tab erasing your previous session. Then you're SOL unless there's some way around that.
@OP When you have continue session on, closing Firefox using burger menu->Quit restores all windows. I assume this will also keep the pins even without continue session.
I use this several times per day when I close the wrong tab (or window). :)
