So if I accidentally close a Page or a Window it's all gone - wow, that's dreadful...
Thanks.
I guess I'll stay with 12... I wish their last "proper" version (feature-wise, I'm not that fussed about the page rendering engine) wasn't a bit more solid. -

Nothing is gone, session can be reopend.
And if openopera://flags/#restore-contenteditables-state
in address bar and activating, you save you posts if xclosing Opera

Nah, they are still stored, you just can't see them anywhere. Thats a much requested feature so will probably see it someday again. Ctrl+Shirt+T will reopen tabs you've closed. Thats the standard shortcut for it on most browsers. Its the bookend to Ctrl+T for opening a new tab. Keep hitting it and it will keep reopening them. I don't know how many it stores but I just tested it and its at least a dozen.

No ctrl-z
Ctrl Z is there and like in the major softwares, is the default for "undo (last action)".
no trash bin for recently closed pages
Although i'm not against such option, i don't think it's something people use so often to worth the efforts to implement it.
search engine in speed dial page cannot be removed?
Yes, it can, but you need to enable (advanced) power user settings.

Thanks again for all the comments, although I'm not sure where it got me, I suspect 12 is the way to go for now and I'll wait and see...

You can only automatically sort bookmarks A>Z, or by manually dragging their tiles around in the bookmarks manager.
But if you have hundreds of bookmarks in X folders und subfolders, you go crazy when you have to click on every single folder. Opera 26 is still missing an autosort like opera 12.x (from A to Z, with folders and links sorted separately) or as an alternative an one-click-sort-erverything-including-subfolders-option.

From O-12 we badly miss earlier "Send Link by Mail" on a mouse right press menu, from a web page, for rapid transmission of its URL to the open "New Message" of my default e-mail program. All it required was adding the sender's address. As someone who frequently sends links, or other selected web material from web sites, O-26 seems to require 4 steps now: Copy URL, bring up E-mail program, select "New Message" and then Paste. Does anyone have a better answer for 26? Thomas

Thanks for your response - could you be a bit more specific please as I've not found an extension for this?

Try this Chrome extension: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/share-link-via-email/ejdbkikfbnnhmachnnomjfgjbgkcnjkb?hl=en-GB
First you'll need to install the "Download Chrome Extension" to be able to install the extension above from the Chrome store.

Thanks again - I tried your 2nd site which worked fine, but then, the 1st.site produced this reponse:
No search results for 'https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/share-link-via-email/ejdbkikfbnnhmachnnomjfgjbgkcnjkb?hl=en-GB'
Really appreciate your attempt to help and I wonder what went wrong when I attempted to follow your recommendations?

So it seems you need an extension to add this extension to Opera 26, right??

Yes, but that (download chrome extension) allows any Chrome extension to be installed from the Chrome store into Opera (Blink) and functions just like a native Opera extension. Plus it only has to be installed once, and not for every Chrome extension one wished to install.
