@red: I found that the Download now button at the top right of the page downloads 102, not beta.

Hi. When closing a group of tabs, the browser crashes.

@opera-comments-bot I downloaded 102.0.4880.16 myself and installed it previously.
When I realized all the errors in this update, I managed to uninstall it and installed 101.0.4843.58 again which brought back my speed dials, extensions, settings etc.

Can I install 102.0.4880.29 now, being 1000 % sure that Opera will "take over" everything mentioned?

Upgrading to this version deletes all your tabs from secondary workspaces

Couldn't you add this to your unit tests? It's not the first time it happens that upgrading loses the open tabs from a previous version.

I confirm this. Windows 10.

@mathias87: I find them helpful because I can have one workspace for work, one for home, one for another project I'm working on, etc. It makes it easier when trying to find a specific tab when you have a lot open.

@multiwebinc Okay.
But please answer my question if you can.

@mathias87: What question? What are workspaces? In the sidebar at the top are the workspaces. See https://www.opera.com/features/workspaces

@multiwebinc Wow... This question: Can I install 102.0.4880.29 now, being 1000 % sure that Opera will "take over" everything mentioned?

@multiwebinc: Ok, it turns out the other tabs were "there"... just the actual workspaces themselves got reset to defaults, so the tabs were inaccessible since they were registered to a nonexistent workspace. Clicking the search tabs icon and entering in one of the tabs from an unavailable workspace could find them and when I selected it, the browser crashed. When it restored, all of the tabs were moved to the main workspace. So at least now I can set up my workspaces again and move the tabs back.

@mathias87: Back up your profile directory and give it a try. If it fails, downgrade Opera and restore your old profile directory.

@multiwebinc I'm not that fond of doing things like this.
I will just wait for other comments.

But I think I'm in this group: "3. Users who updated to 102.0 but had issue and returned to 101.0 will use old profile from 101.0. Their clean/reset Default will be moved to Default.old. Profile will be migrated later."

@multiwebinc If you save the tabs in each workspace as a speed dial folder, it's very easy to restore if something happens. It's a bit of work but there's no mental exertion.

@sergiykos: Also moving tab groups between workspaces crashes the browser.

@spike666: I use the addon Session Buddy. It automatically saves all of your tabs and it's definitely saved me quite a few times. The only thing it doesn't support are workspaces, so if you restore your lost tabs, you have to manually move them to the other workspaces.
