Well, that is sometimes why I turn auto update off on some add ons. |
11 |
Sometimes, since I am on a older version of Firefox, newer add ons don't |
12 |
work. I might add, some older add ons won't work with newer Firefox at |
13 |
all. Firefox disables them and works just not with the add on. Tab |
14 |
utilities is one of them. |

I use session manager on most profiles and even if it does crash, I can |
22 |
go back right away. I don't recall losing anything. On some profiles, |
23 |
I have dozens of tabs open, sometimes close to and even over 100. |

I been using profiles for a few years with no issues. My biggest cause |
38 |
of problems is incompatibility of add ons when either Firefox or the add |
39 |
on gets updated. It may be worth checking into again. Could be that |
40 |
all the new coding fixed issues you had before. One thing about it, you |
41 |
can always remove the newer profiles and go back to the old way. |
