Where does Firefox Tab Session Manager add on stores the sessions?

13,411

Looks like it's under

C:\Users**Username**\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles**UserProfile** \browser-extension-data\Tab-Session-Manager@sienori

in a file called storage.js

Contents can be read with a text editor.

    I have just reinstalled my firefox due to some performance issues.
    I have installed the add on "Tab session Manager"
    https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/tab-session-manager/?src=api
    before and stored my current session in order to get it back, but It didn´t work as intended after reinstall.

    What I have done:
    I saved my profile folder.
    Deinstalled firefox, runn ccleaner, run registry ccleaner, run windows defender virus scan and then run spybot search and destroy system check.

    After I deleted all mozilla folders in the my profiles.
    Then I Installed Firefox again.
    I logged into my account to get back all my add ons
    Then I imported passwords and bookmarks.

    In order to restore my previous session, I have tried the following.

    I opened
    C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxx.default
    and copied over from my profile save the following folder
    sessionstore-backups

    then I went into
    C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxx.default\browser-extension-data
    and copied over from my profile save the following folder
    Tab-Session-Manager@sienori

    Now when I open Firefox I am able to see my previously saved session from before the reinstall but when I click it, it just opens an empty firefox window.

    Question: Does any one know where else there might be any files saved from this addon?
