Session Restore Broken
I just upgraded to the tor-browser-2.3.25-4_en-US
In Tor Button 1.4.x, when you set to Security->History, and unchecked the "Block History options", then Session restore would work as expected.
In the new Tor Button 1.5 interface, there is:
- Don't record browsing history or website data (enables Private Browsing Mode)
If you unchecked "Don't record browsing history", you think this would enable the history AND the session restore. It does not.
So in the new tor bundle, when I now set Options->General->"Show my windows and tabs from last time". Nothing Happens. All modern browsers have a session restore. Eliminating this feature makes the tor bundle unusable for me as a daily browser.
Please fix this, so the tor bundle can be used as a functional daily browser again. I'm sure there are many users like me in Iran and China that use tor daily to get around repressive government firewalls. Many of us are not paranoid about possible privacy issues that enabling the session restore may create.
