I found the two files you mentioned plus 'sessionstore-1.json' through
'sessionstore-.json'.

Only the file listed as 'sessionstore.json' had a value - about 800, and
all of the numbered 'sessionstore-x.json' files (x = 1 through )
listed a value of '0'.  Out of desperation, I moved 'sessionstore.json'
and all  of the numbered 'sessionstore-x.json' to the recycle bin.

Restarting SeaMonkey, the problem had disappeared and I don't find
anything else has gone wrong.  Could this mean that v.2.46 has a 
limit on the number of sessionstore files that can be stored?

My inclination is to dump all of the files in the Recycle Bin.  Yes?
No?  Do something else?


You can toss them.  You'll find SM has created a new sessionstore.json
file based on your current browser tabs.

Thanks for your advice.  I take it, then, that there does, in fact, 
exist a  file limit.

 The 'blank page' button has the black dot.

Consider:
*  Most state mandate that drivers have liability insurance.
*  Employers are mandated to have worker's compensation insurance.
*  If you live in a flood zone, flood insurance is mandatory.
*  If your home has a mortgage, fire insurance is mandatory.

Why then is mandatory health insurance so bad??

May not be the "correct" method, but have you tried answering "Yes" to
restore, then close that Browser Window and re-open your Browser to
get
a "current" set of Tabs??


Interesting idea and something I hadn't thought to try after the first
time the problem arose.

Unfortunately, the problem won't go away.


How many "sessionstore.*" files are in your profile directory?

The value is set to 'only when I need them' (or something similar) but 
it didn't fix the problem.


Does anybody have any further ideas?  The problem is driving me crazy.

If there is a user interface for changing a preference, I always
recommend that in place of manually changing preference variables.  This
is because the user interface might involve more preference variables
than merely the obvious one.  In this case, there is indeed a user
interface.

1.  On the SeaMonkey menu bar, select [Edit > Preferences].

2.  On the left side of the Preferences window, select Browser.

3.  On the Broser pane, select one of the radio buttons under "When
restoring sessions and windows".  If the middle radio button is select,
select the number of tabs.

4.  Select the OK button.

Fine. I always recommend that in place of critiquing peoples' responses 
to others who are looking for help, you post a non-critique actual 
response to the OP.
