Open tabs are not automatically refreshing after the start up

@leocg I would say 10 or more and you should see them loading as visible on picture above. Meanwhile I tested also the latest portable version of Opera 85.xx and again it doesn't work so it really is fail of latest Opera because Opera 81.xx and older works perfectly.

@vaclavv I've tried with 15 tabs, more or less, opened and still couldn't reproduce the issue.

@leocg Thank you however I truly believe we don't understand each other because today I tested Opera on complety different computer with Windows 10 and with Opera 32bit 85.xx (I have Windows 11, Opera 64bit, 86.xx) and exactly the same issue appears - if I start Opera, all tabs are delayed and they only refresh once I click on them.

@vaclavv Maybe, so what are the steps to try to reproduce the problem?

By delayedyou mean that you see nothing on the tab and need to wait for page content to load?

@leocg In previous versions, all tabs were refreshing right after the start of Opera automatically and then when you click on any of these tabs, they were already up-to-date. See below how it looked 0,5s after the start (this shot is from version 81.xx):

This was happening because I had unchecked the following option "Delay loading of background tabs":

Unfortunately this option disappeared and tabs stopped loading automatically after the start. They only refresh once I click on them - one by one.

And second issue is that after a while (day or two), tabs start to appear as seen below which means that I cannot even recognize what was there and I need to again refresh one by one:

Otherwise all tabs work perfectly without delays or any other problems whatsoever.

The points is - give us back the option "Delay loading of background tabs" and all is solved

@vaclavv If I remember correctly, that option was removed because it was no longer working.

By the way, what is the behavior in other Chromium based browsers?

@leocg If something is not working, it can be fixed, right? I am sure I am not the only one to complain so hopefully you will change it.

Regarding other browsers, I don't know it (and I am not even interested to know) because I've been loyal to Opera for over a decade.

@vaclavv Probably there was no way to fix it or a fix would break other things to the point of it not be worth fixing.

@vaclavv I asked about other browsers because it could be related to a Chromium change or bug.

It's probably related with the new session manager, which is Chromium's one. So I guess we will need to get used to that new behavior.

@leocg Thank you however I still believe it will be fixed (or maybe some addon). I cannot imagine to refresh manually some 67 tabs on a daily basis
