Firefox – How to make Firefox 13 Load All My Tabs on Startup or when Resuming Reload

firefox

Firefox 13 (Released June 5, 2012) has introduced a new default setting to Load Tabs on Demand. This causes the browser to only restore the currently selected tab when resuming a session on startup, after a crash, or on a requested reload. I really don't like how I now have to click each tab and select restore.

How can I turn this off?
