Tab Session Manager by sienori

Rated 4 out of 5
by Firefox user 13880448, 8 years agoSeems to work fine..and most importantly also seems to successfully import "Session Manager" extension session files
In my installation it saves and restores tabs in their original order, no problems there.
I have 3 Questions:
---------------------
1) Where are the TSM session files saved? (their folder location)
...the "storage.js" file in the extension's folder does not include any relevant information.
2) Will "Session Manager" session file compatibility be maintained in the future?
3) Can the TSM session be converted to "Session Manager" files?
I just recently spent a week trying to salvage my sessions (several hunded tabs a piece) from another extension in FF Quantum, which were lost after a crash following an extension update.
Recently I saw a similar issue happen with TSM...
..I am terrified of this happening again because my work (researcher) depends on keeping and organizing sessions of saved tabs...
so I will be maintaining both a Quantum and a Gecko installation with SM installed, just in case...
I need a sort of "insurance policy" to maintain "mental health" and prevent professional disasters...
...of course one thing I can do is use my Cyberfox/Waterfox installation to restore a TSM session and then re-save it in Session Manager...
Since you have obviously considered the issue of SM compatibility, if there is any info you can share on this, I would be grateful

- Rated 4 out of 5by Katherine Howell, 11 days agoOne of the best extensions I've installed. Simple, effective, and doesn't bloat the browser at all.

- Rated 3 out of 5by kone, 24 days agoBetter than Firefox's built-in backup, but unnecessarily complicated!
I don't see the point of many of the features. Unfortunately, there's no help section to clarify this. - Rated 5 out of 5by Mimrix, a month ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14498287, a month agoFrom the volume of open issues and the lack of activity on Git, It looks like Sienori has either abandoned this extension or doesn't have the time to maintain it. April 26.

- Rated 1 out of 5by SweatTechnique, 3 months agoFor years, this add-on has suffered from a persistent bug: after an unknown background action, the "Open" button in the Saved Sessions Manager suddenly stops working. I’ve spent several hours troubleshooting, but the technical root cause remains elusive.
Here is what I have established so far:
Profile Corruption: Something is corrupting the user profile. Creating a fresh profile resolves the issue, but only temporarily.
No Add-on Conflicts: I have 100% ruled out conflicts with other extensions.
Clean Install: The issue is not caused by leftover data; a full, clean re-installation of Firefox did not fix it.
The most important point: While I cannot pinpoint the exact trigger in the code, I am able to reproduce the bug reliably. I am happy to assist with further questions or testing. - Rated 5 out of 5by thwei1111, 3 months ago
- Rated 2 out of 5by Sinned, 3 months agoI normally really like and enjoy this add-on, but there is a horrible bug, which from time to time deletes all sessions and lefts a blank session manager. I dont know if it has to do with updates or something like that. But just today after a long time not saving my sessions in a separate file they are gone.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Saul He, 3 months agoIt used to work fine on Firefox mac, now nothing happens when you click OPEN or OPEN IN NEW WINDOW.
Hopefully, it will get fixed soon. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13541515, 3 months agoFundamentally useless. 'Open' button for saved tabs cannot be coaxed to work, at all. F$^# this piece of s#$^%.
