Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: Session Restore, enhancement, P5)

Description

[lolipopplus]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:58.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/58.0
Build ID: 20171115114231

Steps to reproduce:

1. In about:preferences#general, set start up action to any one other than 'Show your windows and tabs from last time'.
2. Restart


Actual results:

You have to access hamburger button for session restore


Expected results:

 CTRL+SHIFT+T is now used to undo closed tabs. But at initial start up, it should be used to restore session instead.

This might relate to some bugs which are discussing the restore button on the beginning page.

It'd be great for having UX member to consider the overall restoring process.

[Ben Kelly [:bkelly, not reviewing]]

Please don't change the definition of ctrl-shift-t.  This shortcut works fine at browser restart to restore closed tabs if you have enabled "Show your windows and tabs from last time" in options.

I have no opinion on adding a new keyboard shortcut for session restore.

Ctrl + Shift + T has been restoring the previous session after startup since at least Firefox 136 or so. I'm sure it's been in place longer than that, but I'm not sure when that might have been implemented. In any case, closing this because it was apparently implemented.
