      @timhoj Weird. Definitely sounds like something outside Opera is interfering.

        it sounds to me like it's Opera. What else could it be ?
        It happens even in Safe Mode.
        Win7

          I can confirm that he isn't a one man case, i got this problem too after update 85.0.4341.47 on both my PC and laptop. I even reinstalled opera on my laptop, without any luck in fixing the problem.

            @timhoj I'm just assuming it's not Opera since things work fine for me and you even tried with a fresh standalone installation (which has a fresh profile).

            How are you closing Opera? With the X or Menu -> exit? Or, are you killing Opera or shutting Windows down without closing Opera first?

            What happens if you goto the URL opera://flags/#new-session-manager, disable the flag, restart Opera, open some tabs, close Opera and reopen Opera. Does that do the trick?

                @proshor Goto the URL opera://about. What version of Opera are you using?

                  85.0.4341.60 after update.

                    @proshor Okay. For now, each time Opera updates, you can turn the new session manager flag back to default (enabled) and see if things start working properly. If not, turn the flag back off.

                    Ideally, you'd want to turn the flag on, goto the URL opera://about, take note of the "profile" path, close Opera, delete everything in the "sessions" folder, start Opera back up, open a few tabs, close Opera, and start Opera back up to see if your sessions are being restored properly with the new session manager. You can keep a standalone installation updated and just test things out there if you don't want to mess with your regular Opera.

                      yes that got it working properly.
                      Isn't fixed on 85.0.4341.60

                        Can someone persuade Opera developers to set the flag to "disabled" by default?

                            @proshor reported this issue internally. Hopefully should be grabbed for fixing soon. Will inform when it's fixed.

                                In the new version of Opera there's no item "session manager" on the page "flags". How can it be explained?

                                  @proshor That's normal and expected, since the change/feature is already in stable channel and, therefore, the flag is no longer needed.
