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

              @vic2pal The tabs menu is at the top right, near the close button. It's a icon with three lines forming a arrow down.

                  @panosv Have you tried signing out and signing back in, because the sync icon now disappears if you're already signed in when you start Opera. Signing out and signing back in makes it come back and stay for as long as you keep Opera up, then it'll disappear again when you close Opera. In my opinion, sync has been broken for a long time now and the devs have no real intenion of ever fixing it. I had to reset my data for the umpteenth time recently because it mysteriously removed my tablet (and no, I did not do it myself). As I keep telling ppl here, sync does whatever it wants when it wants. It's a miracle if ANYTHING gets synced at all.

                      thanks for clarifying, is what you are saying, but why they changed it after we close the browser? if you know

                        @panosv I wish I knew myself what's going on with sync. It's been such a hassle trying to get anything sync at all these days. I don't think it was an intentional change on the devs' part, but a bug within the system that no one seems to care enough about to fix.

                          I have to agree. On the SAME machine I have Opera as well as the new gaming Opera GX.
                          Sync took quite a while to happen. I can only see the current browser tabs even so I have over 8 Operas linked to this 1 account (since I have mostly 2 Opera browser per machine).
                          As for the tabs selection visible:
                          This screenshots is from the same machine, different Opera Version. One shows the tabs selection, the other one does not (but on both it was switched on before...)

                              @jbjb so, you mean that the synchronization, works perfectly? all history, bookmarks and tabs?
