Mozilla Firefox 3.0 RC1

[shakey_snake]

There's little need for Session Manager anymore.

Anyway to save the currently opened tabs when I exit Firefox 3.0 RC1?

With 2.0, I shut my computer down without closing FF and then was able to reopen FF with the tabs when I restart the computer.

With 3.0 Beta 5, I had to click file, exit, then save before I shut down my computer.

Trying that same procedure in 3.0 RC1 doesn't not prompt me to save, nor does it save any of my open tabs.

Does

History -> Restore from last session...

fulfill your needs?

how about:

Options -> Main -> When Firefox Starts: -> Show my windows and tabs from last time

?

Saw that but it does nothing currently in FF 3.0 RC1.

what extensions do you have installed?

Maybe its just me or FF 3.0 RC1. I just don't like the way it has been acting ever since I installed it in comparison to Beta 5 or 2.0.

It works perfectly for me.

Just upgraded from FF2. It seems to use around 30% less memory with the same tabs open. It's also a LOT more responsive than FF2 with a lot of tabs open. All in all, I'm quite satisfied with it. :)

So I wonder what could be causing the tabs not to open even if I have that basic option selected within Firefox. Complete uninstall?

^No, just make a new profile

Has anyone tried playing an embedded WMV / Windows media player content in it?

I'm sorry, but I don't understand how I would do that. Can you explain? Thanks!

Yes I saw those two when I was searching. The thing is, I just wanted personal opinions from those that use a weather extension.

I like Forecastbar enchanced 0.96: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1978

Thanks, I switched to that one after trying a couple others.

Firefox 3 RC1 is miles better for me, bigger back button and smaller forward button is nice, i like the refresh/go button is 1 now, the history drop down menu takes about 1sec to open now instead of about 10secs which was LUDICROUS, you can now pause your downloads which was badly needed, just soooo many things that are better, especially scrolling your tabs before it lagged badly.

Firefox 3 is a LEAP ahead of firefox 2. I havent experienced a single problem with RC1 either which im very happy about. Hopefully 3.5 might add full acid test 3 compatibility.

Unlikely. It won't be until Major backend changes (ie compositor) land that firefox will pass acid 3. Those aren't scheduled to land until Gecko 2.0 (probably Firefox4).

Here's the update, firstly I figured out why the basic "show windows and tabs open from the last session" wasn't working. I normally close out of FF by right clicking it on the taskbar and clicking close. When I would go to reopen FF the tabs would not appear. Simply by clicking the X in the top right to close FF, makes the tabs reappear when I open FF again.

I think I am going to continue with the new profile I made as well. For some reason, my old profile also had some other issues as well.

Thanks for all the help guys!

If it works, feel free to bump the MaxVersion entry yourself...
