      Hi,

      This could not be any worse UI design.
      I pressed the three dot button on the tab bar in the top-right corner and instead of pressing Last closed tabs I accidentally pressed the option next to it (one down on the list) - Close all tabs in effect CLOSING ALL OF MY 100+ tabs.
      I cannot image how could someone put such extremely destructive option next to an option to retrieve some content...

      I have only one question and hope there is a positive answer to it - can these 100+ tabs be retrieved ANYhow? This can include hacks to ANY extent really, I really need to retrieve them.

      Thak you for help!

        If they were opened in a regular window, you should be able to find them in history.

          They were in a regular window, but they are not in History, since I have not activated them recently (on browser start tabs are loaded as inactive/frozen and have to be activated to be loaded and stored in history).

          I'm afraid information about all those closed tabs has been wiped out of Opera Mobile memory in the moment of closing them... 😞

          BTW, only about 10 tabs are on the list of Last closed tabs, so looks like the others are lost for good...
