Have you tried closing the unwanted tabs before restarting Thunderbird?

Wayne, would deleting session.json from the profile help?

session.json is the only place open tabs information is kept, afaik

Flags: needinfo?(vseerror)

Have tried closing them but they return. Where do I find session.json? and how do I get rid of it?

Found session.json - deleted it - comes back and 'thunderbird privacy notice' returns - sometimes up to 5 times in a session. I need further expert advice.

Of course it comes back, because every startup will create it. Perhaps change the file to readonly? Ask in the support site?

Regardless, any workaround you devise wont' be officially supported.
