Can I disable the restore previous session that appears every time I start Firefox?

I want to disable the Restore previous session button that appears every time I start Firefox

Consider using a separate password protected Operating System account, if possible, that may help.
You may use [[Private Browsing]] to prevent some of these problems occurring.

  • How can I add the Restore Previous Session button to a custom home page?

    Just lost my full post, so, sorry for the abruptness.
    Here's what I have:
    <pre><nowiki><?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <!DOCTYPE html [
    <!ENTITY % htmlDTD

    <HTML>
    <button class="launchButton" id="restorePreviousSession">&historyRestoreLastSession.label;</button>
    </HTML></nowiki></pre>
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    If someone can tell me this forum's tags for posting code, I'll gladly correct my original post so you can correctly see the code that I'm using. >.<

  • I don't want to see the Create, etc window when opening PS CC2014. How do I stop it from appearing EVERY time I start PS?

    Overall, I like PS CC 2014. However, the most annoying thing is the popup window that appears EVERY time I start the program. It's the one with "Create", etc at the top and links to a bunch of videos. How do I make it so I no longer have to see it any more?

    Scroll to the bottom of the Welcome screen. There you can tick 'Don't show ...'

  • The restore previous session button is not working on Firefox on any of my three machines. How can I fix this?

    I have a desktop at work, and a desktop and laptop at home and just recently the "restore previous session" button that comes up when I use the desktop icon to start a Firefox Web browser session does not work. It is there and I click it but nothing happens. I have Windows 7 on the two computers at home and thought that is what I had on this computer at work, but it may be Vista. It's not XP.

    Had this trouble myself, just did some research and solved it!
    Go to the '''Help''' menu, go to "'''Troubleshooting Information'''"
    On the new window, click "'''Open Containing folder'''" next to ''Profile Directory'' (This opens the folder on your PC where Mozilla stores some settings, like a tab history)
    In the new Windows Explorer window, Find the file "'''chromeappsstore.sqlite'''"
    You'll want to close Firefox and then '''delete''' that file (don't worry, Firefox will create a new one, and you won't even lose the open tabs)
    Start Firefox again and the button should work!
    (For completeness's sake, the profile folder for windows7 is: C:\Users\Tiberion\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\c6xu23fh.default\
    where you replace Tiberion with your own username, and the random characters in the final folder will be different.)

  • Can I avoid having "Restore Previous Session" box when launching?

    After opening Firefox and then closing it normally (with the red X or using File | Exit), then the next time I open Firefox there is a blue window in the lower middle of the screen to "Restore Previous Session." What if I don't want that window there? There was no fault, no crash of any kind. I've disabled the "restore session after crash" but that didn't help.
    I do want the browser to remember my browsing history to help fill in the address bar.

    Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.<br />
    Use "File > Exit" or "Firefox > Exit" if you want to restore multiple windows.<br />
    You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time.<br />
    There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default <b>about:home</b> Home page.<br />
    Firefox 4 uses a new build-in home page called about:home
    That about:home page only shows some snippets and has a button to restore the previous session if applicable.
    If you want a home page without the Restore Previous Session then set another page as the home page like www.google.com or www.google.com/firefox used in Firefox 3 versions.

  • Is it possible to NOT have 'Restore Previous Session' option come up automatically every time you start Firefox?

    A large envelope pops up mid-screen every time I start Firefox, asking if I want to restore previous session. I don't want all users after me to have this option, but don't want to keep an empty history either. Can I deselect this option somewhere? Looked around, but found nothing.

    Unfortunately changing the options found under "Completely disable session restore" does not make any difference to this problem.

  • When I open firefox it is returning to the last viewed page instead of my homepage even though I have the settings set to clear history every time I close Firefox. I check and all of the previous history is still there and not deleted..

    Make sure that Firefox closes properly and that that there are no longer Firefox or plugin-container processes left on the Processes tab in the Task Manager. Otherwise session restore will reopen the page(s) from the previous session.

  • How can I stop the download dialog from appearing every time I open Firefox 5.o latest version?

    Ever since I downloaded Firefox 5.0 the other day I get the download dialog every time I start Firefox 5.0.1. I told the download dialog to save Firefox 5.0.1 when I downloaded it. If I now say yes to the dialog it will download and save a new copy of the program like 5.0.1 (1). If I say cancel on the dialog I keep getting the dialog every time I start Firefox 5.0.1.

    I have heard that Norton released an update patch for Firefox 5.0 on Tuesday 06-21 when Firefox 5.0 was released. ''(versus taking their normal six to eight weeks)'' Some Norton users have reported that the toolbar may not work if the Norton patch was installed before Firefox 5.0, instead if after Firefox 5.0 was already installed.
