User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:73.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/73.0
Steps to reproduce:
- Have an existing session.
- Restart the browser.
- Accidentally select "Start New Session" instead of "Restore Session."
Actual results:
The old session was destroyed without a current backup in sessionstore-backups. previous.jsonlz4 and the most recent upgrade.jsonlz4-[DATE] were 8 days old.
Expected results:
The most current existing session should be stored in sessionstore-backups when a user clicks "Start New Session."

Hi, I know this is an old bug but is this still a problem? Because I'm looking at the code and I'm not seeing that we deliberately delete the previous.jsonlz4 in this scenerio.

hrm, I just had this happen to me and you're right. Click "Start new session" and there isn't a way that I can see to restore the previous session.
