Earlier quoted context omitted.

>> "by only loading tabs " and then "the only tab " So, Firefox opens tabs or tab (as in juts one tab or many/all tabs)? Because in my case it opens all the tabs and if there were 20, it opens all. Even though the last time I opened them was 3-4 hours before the browser was closed/crashed. update : I had missed the point. Thanks @thirtian for clearing up.

Firefox displays the tabs in the tab-bar, but it doesn't bother loading the page until the first time you switch to the tab. Also, pinned tabs are always loaded at startup.

Good bug to address but who allows Windows to power itself up and install updates unsupervised? Not a good idea.

Cute. One "solution" of course is to set the 'On startup' setting to anything other than 'continue where I left off.'.

I think the problem is that the user has set Chrome to run on boot. If he removed Chrome from the startup list this problem would not occur.

"This is serious. Though it never occurred on my computer because I use neither Windows nor Chrome but I support this anyway in the name of humanity." In the name of humanity, wouldn't it be nice if people were in the habit of shutting their computers down, rather than letting them burn through electricity all night long?

I hope google, facebook, hacker news and other web sites would start shutting down at least half of their servers during the night. And, when I say night, I mean night anywhere on this platnet, not just night in some particular time zone. That would help.
