That's the way it works. If you have more than one window open, closing a window clears the window and all its tabs. Either close the other window first or click menu and then exit to exit Opera so all windows and their tabs are retained.
As for restoring the tabs, goto the URL
opera://aboutand take note of the "profile" path. Then, in the profile folder in Windows, open the "Last Tabs" and "Last Session" files in a text editor to se eif the URLs for your opened tabs are listed somewhere in there. If they are, copy the 2 files to your desktop and then close Opera. Then, rename them to "Current Tabs" and "Current Session", copy them, close Opera, paste them into the profile folder while choosing to overwrite the existing ones, and then start Opera back up.That's about your only chance. If that doesn't work, you're out of luck.

But only since one or two patches ago when they removed the "reopen tabs" menu before that we could always just open that menu and also restore entire closed windows...
Honestly, I am pretty pissed at that change especially as I used that feature quite often and I just don't understand why anyone thought it would be a good idea to remove that feature, but considering the decisions made by Opera in the last decade I am not really surprised sadly.
