User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:7.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/7.0.1 Build ID: 20110928134238 Steps to reproduce: Installed version 8 while I had A LOT of tabs open in Firefox of which I can't remember the website addresses. I then restarted Firefox and all my pinned and open tabs are now gone. Actual results: All pinned and open tabs/websites are not shown anymore. Expected results: Firefox should have kept all the tabs in the tab bar.
Severity: normal → major
...now I just used the Filehippo Update Checker and it told me that I still have version 7 of Firefox installed... So I clicked on the update button again in the about window of FF and the window closed right away, as if it crashed. Instead it installed version 8 AGAIN. This didn't bring back my pinned and open tabs though.
