Well I have Last Session from back-up but when I add it to AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable (alongside to Last Tabs fir good measure), opera start with 0 tabs and the files get overwritten afterwards.

is there a trick something to be done? Thank fot your answers so far.

@iuliug Maybe it's detecting that there is a new computer or OS installation.

Btw, did you check under history when you started Opera?

@leocg It imported the backup history indeed. Still no tabs? Thanks and any more ideas?

@iuliug Previous tabs should be under the history menu.

@leocg Should they be organized differently than normal History tabs? I can only see normal history (which means it is hard to get a grasps of the tabs that were in the session).

@iuliug I don't think so, they are under 'recently closed'. By the way, you can try checking in tabs menu.

@iuliug Okay, so I guess you can't restore session from another Opera instance.

@leocg So I did it. I renamed my old Last Session and Last Tabs in Current and move to current respective ones in the new install and it worked.

Thank you, Sir for your kind assistance. Much appreciated.
