@leocg I couldn't find it, but I did figure something out!

It's kinda embarrassing and was also a huge pain, but I found the Tabs page for sessions and the tab info was still saved. It almost looks like it classified itself as a new computer, instead of the original?
Either way, for anyone else that finds this, sidebar option towards the bottom.

I had to click through and sort all 146 tabs 😑 but I have them back at least now.
and yes, I should really close some tabs....

@dddddddddddx Do you have graphics acceleration enabled?

@namenlos1488 They are synchronized but not automatically populated.

@Farligtt happened to me too, i still didn't find a way to fix it

@jonfleming Click on other Speed Dials icon in start page

I have just stopped opera, loaded the file from my original laptop SSD drive, as the adaptor has just arrived (rather than the backup I used, made the day the laptop expired), restarted and checked the bookmarks again. Now, under 'other bookmarks' is a folder with my old laptop id which has the speed dial entries in. Must be a problem with the backup, as the one on the drive seems to work. Thanks for your help.
