User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:56.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/56.0 Build ID: 20171024165158 Actual results: When Firefox starts, after a half minute it requests the Master Password. (It's ok to request it) I dont open any webpages. So it can't be the problem that i am not on a page where Master Password has to save my password. Expected results: It should request it immediately after start. I dont want anybody to access my firefox datas, documents, anything in firefox.

Master password only secures your passwords in Firefox, nothing else. It's not meant to prevent session restore or any other use of Firefox. Secure your OS user account instead if you're worried about people accessing other portions of your Firefox data.
