<![CDATA[Opera Crashed, How do I recover my tabs?]]>I'm using Opera Version:62.0.3331.116. Long story short a very memory intensive program caused the computer to freeze indefinitely and I turned the computer off. Now I want Opera to restore the tabs from my previous session. I don't want to go through my history for each individual site, and they're not all showing there anyway.

There's a "Last session" file that you might be able to copy to a safe place if you haven't closed Opera yet and if it's not also corrupted. Then, you could replace the Current Session file with it while Opera is closed. Don't know if it'll work.

But, you can look at the Last Session file with a text editor to see if it even has the list of open tabs in there.

Can you please come my new thread and try help burnout https://forums.opera.com/topic/45115/current-session-and-previous-session-name-have-changed
cause your fix is not valid any longer, cause "last session files" files are replaced by new session files

Yes, it restarted while I was not using computer. Computer was in sleep mode. I'm using Insider Preview Windows. I've seen somewhere that in case of windows updates opera's session crashes.

One of the development principles is "user data are safe". Hope opera will take this into consideration

Again I face this shit. Fuc..g Microsoft with their unavoidable updates and opera which session crashes during these updates. Just several MB cost to people hours to restore tabs by hands and to restore only part of it sometimes. Opera developers, please make more restore points. Save current tabs to speed dial folder is quite compute intensive and one doesn't want to do it often.

One thing you can do every once in a while is to right-click on the tab bar or tab and choose "save all tabs to a speed dial folder". Then, if something like this happens, you can right-click on the folder and choose "open all in new tabs".

You can also goto opera://bookmarks and export your bookmarks every once in a while so that that speed dial folder is backed up.

It's manual, but it might help.

On another note, I post a link to one of the session extensions that might help as soon as a find the old thread on here.

I followed your directions and it looked like it could have worked. Unfortunately the last session data was blank after crashing and then having restarting issues. At least in theory if someone else has this problem and searches the web for a solution I think your advice has a chance of helping them.

If not, try one of the other files, but that's where mine are at.

That's where it's at. Try copying it to a safe place before you close Opera. Then, you'd rename it "Current Session" and use a copy of it to paste and replace the current "Current Session" file (once you close Opera). Untested though.

Open tabs are very delicate when it comes to crashes. You might want to look at some session management extensions to see if you can find one that keeps better track of them and allows you to restore them.
