        @EbonCandle Wrong image? That one has nothing to do with lots of tabs opened.

        If you don't know what are those tabs or from where they came, disable all extensions and check your system for malware.

              @leocg most of the pages were: https://help.opera.com/en/latest/
              and some of them were micosoft support page. i have disabled some of mine extensions. here's the screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/ZOaGG0h.png
              there's no problem now. i can use opera. but i cannot say certainly.

                @EbonCandle said in opera opens thousands of tabs:

                most of the pages were: https://help.opera.com/en/latest/

                That is the page that Opers shows after an update to a new version. Maybe something went wrong during the update?

                  @leocg my opera version: 68.0.3618.125
                  it says it is up-to-date.
                  as i said, i have 'reinstalled" opera before when i got the same problem.
                  i didnt get any error at that moment.

                    @leocg i have got the same problem again just now. here's the screenshot https://i.imgur.com/8NyyXfJ.png

                    typing this on firefox.
                    i dont think it has to do anything with extensions.
                    i think i have to do the recovery option (reset to default state)
                    this will be my last attempt.

                      @EbonCandle Try with a clean profile directory.

                            @EbonCandle You do it outside of Opera and with it closed. Just rename the current profile directory.

                                  It remembers me when in speeddials you have a bundle of links packed into one folder.
                                  If you happen to do right button and accidentally select 'Open all in new tabs', it will trigger all the links as you cant't but stare the fireworks.
