Computer trivia

This is a useful tip for Firefox.

We know that it is possible to save a window with multiple tabs (session), so that all the tabs get reopened the next time you use Firefox. Pretty cool feature.

But it is quite common that you might be using two different windows, say one for personal stuff and one for office work each with many tabs. Now how do you save both the windows? Firefox will only save the session of the last closed window.

So, when you want to save the sessions of multiple windows, open windows task manager and end the ‘firefox’ process (I mean it). This way when you restart Firefox all the windows that were open, before the process was ended will be opened.

There is also a simpler way around. When you want to save multiple window sessions, use File->Exit instead of the close(X) button and this will have the same effect.

Hope this tip is useful.
