Can't close about:blank tab

I have one pinned tab that has about:blank url. Opening a page there switches to the blank again. I am certain this was a pnned tab with some web page opened originally - I noticed some tabs have changed to blank on occasion in the past but never with this problem.
It shows reload icon sporadically, about every 5 seconds on average. When i close the tab, nothing happens. If I unpin it, move the tab, and then close it, it just pins itself again. Help.
Also it seems like because of it I can't switch between workspaces - it switches me back to the workspace with the blank tab (maybe because of the reloading?)

@iwua Sounds like Opera's session data may be stuck on that tab. I'd try fully exiting Opera through the menu, making sure it's closed in Task Manager, then reopening it. If it still keeps pinning itself, try Opera's Update & Recovery > Recover > Keep my data and only reset Opera settings. That option removes pinned tabs, so back up anything important first. What version of Opera are you running?
