Hi. In the process of restoring a fried hard drive. Had many V7 imprortant sessions, so very keen to recover them. Can anyone advise where on the hard drive they would be stored? Many thanks

Its auto-save session feature saved my life today.
I ran out of free space on my C: drive. After OS freed some megabytes on that drive I closed Opera. That was a mistake. Next time I opened Opera I discovered all my 1300+ tabs gone!
Stupid Opera not only haven't even warned me about the problem with session saving (it could provide some solution like demanding to free some space on disk and retry saving session before close) it also screwed up "Last Session" file! So my session would gone forever if V7 Sessions were not installed.
V7 sessions restored almost the latest state of my session excluding empty tabs (I use these as separator). Could we get an option in settings to save empty tabs in autosaved sessions as it is in manually saved sessions?
Anyway, my life saved. Many thanks to the author! Great tool!

mrsomewhere last edited byUnfortunately, hasn't been updated in over 3 years. Updates to Opera seem to have broken this extension. 9 times out of 10 the "Save current window" button does nothing. This has been a problem for several months now. Recently the appearance of the menu for restoring sessions has changed; this menu sometimes becomes unresponsive. In particular, it is difficult to access Auto-Sessions. Clicking on the clock icon will open auto-sessions, but then the menu switches back to regular sessions with the "back" button in the top bar, unresponsive. When using Opera's dark theme, the second half of the websites on the Auto-Sessions list appear in dark gray text on a black background (unreadable).

version 3.3.3 is on the store with the fix for dark theme
you can force update:- by enabling developer mode on opera://extensions/ (top right corner)
- and then click on update button (also top right corner when dev mode enabled)
...or you can wait for auto-update
pleas export your sessions first, just in case (from extension options page)
and do that regularly... it's a smart thing to do -

it is ...but that takes much more work (to implement dark theme like in bookmarks)
I hope it will be in one of the next updates, currently I don't have a time for it -

Is it possible to reverse sorting, i.e. show most recent sessions at top?

no, you can only reorder them with drag and drop
drop session on the green line under target session node, not the whole green session...or they will merge -

My Opera crashed and I had to do a new installation, but all my V7 sessions saved sessions are gone. Fortunately, before the new installation I saved the old folder of "opera stable". is there a way to recover my old sessions? In which folder are V7 Sessions sessions saved?

I hope you saved profile folder of Opera
\profile\data\Local Extension Settings\khmbgihnlknbjgjhmekjeoidpfimabpp
there will be some files like log, current...
copy those files and place them into your new Opera installation profile in the same path (same folder)
you sessions should be restored in new Opera installationps. you need to, of course, install V7 Sessions inside new Opera installation

thanks for your quick reply.
Yes I saved the old folder but inside the old Local Extension Settings folder there are 4 folders. In 3 of these folders (including the one with the name you indicated: khmbgih ....) there are only 4 files with these names: 000003.log - CURRENT - LOCK - LOG - MANIFEST-000001). I opened the 000003.log file but inside there are only two lines with no data.
Instead, in the fourth folder (it is called: flaibmngbecjljogddbgojfenfcneanb) there are many more files including 4 files with the extension .ldb. I opened the log file (which is called 000551.log) and inside there is a lot of data including the links to the web pages that were inside my old Sessions.
I tried to follow your procedure (copy the old 4 folder in the new profile Local Extension Settings folder and then install V7, but the list of Sessions is empty. I also tried to replace the files in the "flaibmngbecjljogddbgojfenfcneanb" folder in the one you indicated "khmbgih .... "but the result was the same: no sessions -

First, you need to install V7 Sessions inside new Opera
and then copy files from one folder to another (from old saved profile folder to new Opera installation).... folder name is khmbgihnlknbjgjhmekjeoidpfimabpp
this is also extension ID
you can go to opera://extensions/ and enable developer mode (top right corner)if you then go to any extension details, you'll see ID section in it
So...the ID of V7 Sessions extension is khmbgihnlknbjgjhmekjeoidpfimabpp and that is also a folder name where extension is saving data
other cryptic folders names are from other extensions (you can find which one by checking ID on extensions page)when you copied folder into new Opera, and THEN installed V7 sessions, that installation rewritten your copied folder, and in new extension there are no saved sessions ofc
...and when you copied files for other folder "flaib....." that was no V7 Sessions data...

@wasdwasd said in V7 Sessions:
Is it possible to add such feature? I use sessions often and have a few tens of them. I'd like t see most recent on top, because I open recent sessions more often than old session.
- for (var c = 0, e = sessX.length; c < e; c++) { + for (var c = sessX.length - 1; c >= 0; c--) {Thank you, wasdwasd! Now it's much better!

A bug and an observation:
The bug: whenever I drag a session to reorder the list, it opens in the current browser window, as if I'd clicked the appropriate button (I didn't). This is actually a long-standing but and I don't remember if I ever reported it.
The observation: both this extension and V7 Tabs are (obviously, since it's a new feature) unaware of workspaces. All the tabs in all workspaces are treated as if they were a long list in the same window. This is disorienting because they seem to be sorted more or less in the order they were opened instead of Workspace 1 first, Workspace 2 second, etc. Again, it's just an observation, not a bug, and not your fault; I'm not even saying that the extension should be workspace-aware at this point since it's likely the workspace feature will change and evolve. But just a heads up.

about the bug:
Weird. I can't recreate that behavior. Reordering sessions, tabs, tabs between sessions, windows...
on my side it never triggers session open
tested on windows 10, stable and developerabout spaces:
as you already wrote, extensions are not aware of Opera spaces.
