Where is the "Recently closed tabs/Tab menu" button on the top right?

I found this article and took out an account because i followed the step of going to opera://flags/#search-in-open-tabs but did not find any entry for search in open tabs. is there something else that can be done. the search function is not something i would use.

It seems there may be no way to get it back ? i am running 70.0.3728.106

@arqhugo vivaldi is made by the old guys that made Opera, Opera was sold some time ago to a chinesse group and since opera guys didn't like some changes the new group made, they started Vivaldi, its nice browser too, has some tinny problems that need to improve, but yeah, they have the old dropdown of closed tabs we all want,

@zaapa1 Vivaldi started years before Opera have been sold to the Chinese consortium, as a result of a business opportunity that someone who made money with Opera saw when some users showed some dislike with the change to Chromium.

@zaapa1 Who moved to Chromium? Vivaldi has always been a Chromium based browser.

@leocg If my english level dont fail me, You said Vivaldi did born to help those users who where not happy with Opera moving into chromium.
So how those users get happier with vivaldi if they are moving into a chromium browser anyway?

@zaapa1 My bad, I should have said that they were unhappy to the consequences of that change in Opera.

If a Opera developer can read this: please, bring back the "Recently closed tabs" button!

@zaapa1 Vivaldi was made on chromium, but it was made to look and work as close to Presto ( the old opera engine) as possible, and adding additional settings and things along the way.

@medusanyc you can revert to an old version, try and use opera without the recently closed feature, but getting updates, or switch to another browser (the heavily mentioned here Vivaldi, or perhaps others).
Using versions higher that 70 of opera one can't bring it back no matter what.

@123ms long story short - they won't bring it back. You can read a bit through this thread for some other possible options.

@burnout426 After v70 update is not working anymore. The flag is removed.

I don't understand why the Opera stuff ignore the users, using the force to implement something useless and to remove a very useful option "Recently closed tabs/Tab menu". Opera loose a lot in front of other browsers. The users make a software useful, not the programmers. This is very strange behaviour...

There's some info at https://windowsreport.com/is-windows-firewall-blocking-port-program/ on how to enable logging for the Window firewall program. Maybe the log will reveal something.

a partial solution to the problem is "ctrl+spacebar" that has the 3 last recently closed items. seems like to go further than that u need to enter history (ctrl+H).

Let me join the "movement" and ask for the "Recently closed tabs" button back.
The "Search in tabs" functionality has absolutely no use for me.
How hard it must be to give users the option to choose between two buttons or even use both of them, when the functionality was already built. Just add a flag and everyone will be happy.

Such a shame this is happening.
Time to move to Vivaldi.

What about the submenu "Other devices", I also need this to migrate my opened tabs from my smartphone to the PC.... and it is much faster to use this little button to operate.
