    Under options, main, start up- I've set it to show my windows and tabs from last time when Firefox starts. Yet it always reverts back to my home page, even if I click OK and open options again.

    Anyone else having this problem?

    Use that to backup the extensions, bookmarks and passwords. I have it installed but not used it for ages (using chrome) but just had a look and the options listed are, extensions, bookmarks, passwords plus other things.

    Taken from link.

    FEBE backs up your extensions, themes, and (optionally) your bookmarks, preferences, passwords, cookies and just about everything else Firefox offers (it can even backup/restore your entire profile).
