      2 is already there in latest developer build more or less. You will be able to reopen tabs from previous session(s).

        Thanks, I already had a quick look at the various builds and it seems 2 has been implemented thus:

        DNA-62990 ‘Recently closed tabs’ in O-menu on win & lin implemented.
        DNA-62782 Save recently closed tabs & windows across sessions implemented.

        The blog entry also mentions:

        • List of recently closed tabs and windows is stored between sessions.
        • [Windows, Linux] List of recently closed tabs and windows added to History section in O-Menu.

        Not tried the developer or beta builds so am wondering if it has been implemented as a one-shot restore all closed tabs or if you have to go into the list of closed tabs and click each one individually. The latter case is not necessarily less efficient since if a user has 30+ tabs open in the last session, they might only want to restore 20 of those tabs and so could re-open them selectively.

          It's the last one, unless you have 'continue from where I was' enabled.

                  I like both suggestions, but the first one is disabled by default.

                      1. Confirm close on exit

                      Yes, please. I miss this feature a lot.

                        agree we do need both features along with a built in session manager and a built in feature to ask if you want to restore your last session if opera crashes.

                          @cbmvic20 said in 2 suggestions for desktop Opera browser; 1. Confirm close on exit; 2. Restore closed tabs on startup:

                          Confirm Close On Exit

                          I agree, no Confirm Close On Exit option is a deal-breaker for me. Frankly, it's silly not to include a warning when closing an application when valuable work could be lost - and no, reopening to where left off is not the same! (Otherwise, Opera is a fast, memory efficient browser)
