      @tamikonatsu Exactly, I've done the same and still have this issue. It's really annoying, I was using sync.opera a lot previously but now it's useless.

        I've the same issue. Looks like device ID in synced tabs changes every times you restart your browser, generating a new device entry in opera://activity.
        Posted a video here to show you the issue: https://forums.opera.com/post/286761
        I ended up disabling tab sync until they fixed it.

          @peuuuurnoel Saw that when I first went looking a few weeks ago. Got frustrated at the many "oh you need to do this" replies when you and others had clearly stated, you'd already done everything suggested.
          Mine was doing it on a brand new PC, shiny and fresh, no previous installs of opera, that shows its a bug.

            @peuuuurnoel Thank you! I think the video clearly shows that this is a bug. Hopefully one of the moderators will notice this and report. Thanks again for your help.

                    Re: How to remove all the tabs from "Open tabs" which are not anymore open on any devices (checked manually) and are multiplied unnecessarily.

                    I have logged off and on again, and re-synced all my devices and opera for windows. Flow, bookmarks, speed dials etc. are all correctly synced, but Opera for windows show other devices tabs has not cleaned up, It shows two entries for each of my other devices (one is correct, one is old) as well as an old device. Is there a way to clean up these entries?

                      @handyguy Please just introduce a way to remove/delete the known bad entries in the tab sync table.

                            I thought that the problem was caused by leaving pinned tabs in the browser, now I see that it is not 😕

                              @hvalenti I know I loved being able to work on something on my laptop and then hopping on my desktop to continue the work, now it's impossible unless you want to sift through hundreds of tabs that have already been closed and are not open on any device. Yet opera still has them open. If they could just let us manually clean out the opened tabs we would be fine but there is no way to correct this as of right now

                                  @leeellis47 Totally agree. I used it all the time before and it was SO useful. I've now switched to Firefox. I loved Opera but after installing some add-ons and changing some settings I'm very happy with Firefox too, it just needed some configuring.

                                    Is there still no fix?

                                        Hi, OperaGX LVL 5 (core: 100.0.4815.44) here...

                                        Same problem.
                                        I have 2 devices with almost 200 open tabs per device,
                                        in "Open Tabs" I see multiplicated 11 times device1 and 5 times device2
                                        I hope in an early fix.
                                        "Open tabs feature" is useless now...!

                                            @vegelund I doubt this will ever be fixed. It'll be a year ago on Sunday this was first reported, and October a year since a mod mentioned it was known about and a fix was incoming.
