User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:127.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/127.0
Steps to reproduce:
Accept Firefox update to 127.0 after restarting system (Windows 11). Decline entering main password when prompted by Firefox. (I don't recall having seen that prompt before.)
Actual results:
When the Firefox window appeared, it contained only a tab about the new version. The "History/Recently Closed Tabs" and "History/Recently Closed Windows" were greyed out and did not contain any items. I had a carefully curated collection of many open tabs in two separate windows and that collection has now disappeared. I checked "about:profiles" in case Firefox had somehow created and started using a new profile and my collection was still available in an older profile, but that wasn't the case.
Expected results:
I expected Firefox to restore the tabs and windows that were open when I last closed Firefox, as has nearly always worked before. And if Firefox did not restore the tabs and windows automatically, then I expected them to be available via the "History/Recently Closed Tabs" and "History/Recently Closed Windows" functionality, as has always been the case before.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::Session Restore' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.
