Dear Opera Support Team,

mine is my Opera browser,
Version:94.0.4606.38
Update Stream:Stable
Operating system: Windows 10 64-bit
Chromium version: 108.0.5359.125
crashed and after restarting Opera in all my 22 workspaces the open tabs are gone, all empty.
It would be very important for me to restore them.
Can you help me with this, provide a guide on how to restore it?
Thank you very much in advance for your help.
Kind regards
Roy

If you haven't closed Opera since starting Opera after the crash, goto the URL opera://about and take note of the profile.

Then, while Opera is still open, copy the "Sessions" folder in the profile folder to your desktop. Then, close Opera and delete everything in the "Sessions" folder in the profile folder. Then, copy the older versions of the Session_ (opened tabs) and tabs_ (recently-closed tabs) files (they have timestamps to tell which ones are newer/older) from the "Sessions" folder on your desktop to the "Sessions" folder in your profile folder.

Then, when you start Opera up, you might get lucky if the older session files contain your last good session.

If you've already closed Opera, your tabs are gone unless you have backups of the session files, and you'll have to goto opera://history and open everything back up manually.

Best to keep frequent backups of the "Sessions" folder from now on just in case.
