Warn before closing all tabs

Tabbed browsing has been around for ages, but I still can't get the hang of an X closing more then one thing. And I forget I had something else open. I could be looking at a page in a browser, go off and read an email, open a browser tab to look at a link, then close it, then immediately realise I was previously browsing something else and have closed that too. Every other browser warns of closing multiple tabs, it's odd Opera doesn't.

After a period of ongoing problems with Firefox I decided to try Opera and so far I am enjoying using it.

Being of a certain age, change can be challenging but largely Opera seems intuitive and practical. However, one thing I do miss is a warning when closing multiple tabs - if this was optional surely no-one could object?

I have yet to see how responsive Opera developers are to suggestions but Googling around indicates that lots of folk would appreciate this change.

+1. This is an extremely important & basic feature. Without a confirmation there is no workaround to get the closed windows with its tabs back as the history will not even show the tabs if delayed loading is turned on as set by almost everybody...

I absolutely love Opera, but the reason I will not convert it to my main browser is that there is no option to warn me before closing all tabs. I continue to lose many tabs by forgetting that it shuts them all down. Opera, you are almost perfect but this needs to be an addition very fast, it's a basic function to help everyone. Why haven't you added this?

How much I agree with you mntwister. This is being sent from IE11 as my default browser only because of the lack of confirmation for closing multiple tabs. I have not seen anything supporting the lack of this facility.

Just opened a window I did not want, I closed it and the whole F'ing program closed with all my work.
