      Steps to reproduce:

      • Open 2 workspaces (say, workspace 1, workspace 2)
      • Have some tabs in both workspaces.
      • Go to some tab in workspace 2 (without closing any tab in workspace 1)
      • Keep closing tabs in workspace 2 using Ctrl+W

      Ctrl+W on the last tab in workspace2 (after closing all other tabs in that workspace) closes the entire window instead of taking me to workspace 1.

      I am using Opera One(version: 100.0.4815.76) on WIndows 10 22H2 (OS Build 19045.2965).

          I am having the same issue. Though, the new update to Opera does it no matter how you close the last tab in a workspace. Even clicking the little 'x' in one workspace ends up closing the entire window instead of taking me to another workspace with an active tab. It is extremely annoying. Supposedly, it is a workspace setting, but I have not been able to figure out where to find those settings.

            Yep, I am having the same issue. This wasn't happening until I decided to restart the browser, and I'm guessing it applied an update when I did that and this update contained the bug.
