      I got the same issue on my laptop Win 10 x64 several days ago. Seems like it happened after the recent update. So, I don't have Tabs on Sidebar menu, and only can access it via the command opera://activity

          I use this: chrome://startpage/activity when that happens. That should bring back the tabs icon. Just keep in mind that android tabs may not show up right away due to sync's horrendous track record, but they will show up.

                Have you tried this? link text That should bring up the Tab Page. I was able to access my Android Tabs there. Though sync does tend to take a bit for android tabs to show up.

                  @slytheringirl opera://activity (and opera://startpage/activity) open right windows with tabs, but still icon don't re-appear.
                  It's funny, because I totally forgot about this topic because for a while there was not a single response. Yesterday I've got notification about new post here and it looks like there was some feedback. Nice 🙂

                  Unfortunately this issue is still present, even after over 1 year and I don't know what triggers it. Sometimes Opera opens up and icons is right from the start. Sometimes (more often) Opera opens and icons is missing and later it appears.

                    I don't see sync tabs icon and I don't see PC connected as device in Opera account sync. Opera Android and PC is connected to this same account.

                      @MESIAH Sync has been buggy for a long time. It does work but it takes a loooong time for anything to show up with me most of the time. Try logging out and back in or resetting sync. Resetting sync did help for me a few times when sync was acting up.

                              I had the same problem as @szczepanson it started working for me after following steps:

                              • changing the display language to english
                              • restarting Opera
                              • sigining out and signing in again in the synchronization menu

                              Without following steps the opera://activity were working fine but he icon on the task bar was missing and not available for selection.

                              I am using Opera in version is 60.0.3255.165

                                @jbjb Did this procedure fixed problem permanently?
                                In my case it's totally random if this icon shows up after opening Opera.

                                      I'm facing the problem too. I'm on Opera version 62.0.3331.18. I can't see the Tabs icon in the sidebar. However,
                                      opera://activity shows the synced tabs. Also, the Synchronization icon in the top right is hidden when you open the browser. It shows again after you navigate to opera://activity.

                                          @vic2pal I guess the idea is to use the tabs menu.

                                            The problem is that "Tabs" button is missing
