Comment (by rollback-question):

 just for clarity, in the preferences the box "Remember logins and
 passwords for websites" is still checked, but the Saved Logins window is
 now empty after the upgrade. saved logins have survived all tor browser
 upgrades for many many years, ever since it exists. also tabs got always
 recovered after a crash (or if the browser got killed) while now they are
 not, even if the settings are the same. something has changed, maybe on
 purpose to make it more secure, but if these settings are forced on me
 i'll have to quit using the browser or just use a vanilla firefox
 connecting to a tor deamon. i understand this is a lot less secure but
 usability is also very important to me
