Details

(Whiteboard: [proton-hamburger-menu])

Tested with:

Release 88
Beta 89.0b8
Nightly 90.0a1 (2021-05-05)

Tested on:

Windows 10
Ubuntu 20

Preconditions:

Have a previous session to be restored.

Steps:

  1. Launch firefox and open a new private window.
  2. In the new private windows opened, open the hamburger menu and go to the History submenu.

Actual result:

The "Restore Previous Session" is displayed and greyed out.

Expected result:

Given the fact that the Restore Previous Session option is now displayed only if there is a session to be restored and it is not displayed all the time like before Proton, the Restore Previous Session in private browsing should be hidden based on the fact that it is always disabled and the user cannot restore a previous session in private browsing.

Ni? @Tyler for prioritize this.
