      for fast use of private window i created myself a link file
      D:\Progs\Opera\launcher.exe --private

      • if you run normal Opera with tabs list you use and then private with this link file - everything is ok.
      • if normal is closed and you run private, then close private and run normal - everything is fine too.
      • if normal is closed and you run private, then while private is still open run normal - all your tabs in normal are gone! whatever run/close patterns you do next, tabs are already gone.

      hope this helps to fix. lost my tabs already twice to figure this out.

        Confirmed. Worth filing a bug report.

        I see that if you launch Opera normally, open a private window, close the normal window so that only the private window is open and launch Opera normally, a non-private window opens with the tabs from last time with no problems. So, it's just with the command-line setting it seems.

          Are you running the launcher or directly to the exe?

          Have you fscked your local propeller head today?

            @mryanmarkryan2 I was running launcher.exe and from OP's post, it looks like launcher also. If launcher.exe is forwarding the --private correctly, I would assume it wouldn't matter.

              Just curious if you got the same result running the app directly.

                  Yes. Same result.
