Hi all.
I just encountered a problem with my Opera browser, in summary: the browser crashed, and when I reopened it, it did not restore my 50 open tabs; normally in the windows appdata folder and the opera subfolder, there are 4 files, 2 sessions and 2 tabs which correspond to the current session, but the problem is that I only have the tab file which dates from before the crash, without the correct session file that normally goes with it... so I'm really pissed off because the session file was replaced by a blank one when I restarted,
could a developer, for example, try to help me to try to use the pre-crash tab file to find my pre-crash session, please ?
Thank you.

@operette75 The tab file is for recently-closed tabs. The session file is for your opened tabs. So, if the session is gone/blanked out, and you don't have a backup of it, you're out of luck.

@burnout426 Ah, ok... And do you know how to look in detail the content of a session_xxx file, please ?

@operette75 You can open it in a text editor like Notepad++. It's a binary file though so you will just see a bunch of junk. But, you should be able to see URLs for tabs in plain view.
If you want to actually parse and properly view the file, see https://www.google.com/search?q=snss+file+format. It's not exactly simple.

@burnout426 Thank you so much.
For those that it could help, I will do a Windows system restore, the last backup of which dates back to 3 days, which will allow me to recover my Opera session from that moment.
