<![CDATA[Recently closed is only tabs, not windows.]]>The recently closed function only works for closed tabs. If I close Opera (thereby closing say four tabs), those tabs are not included on the list.

Let's not turn this a generic discussion about a bunch of subjects.

Opera fails to do so. Ads drive me MAD!!!

Do mention if you need any help with doing so.

I usually also close all tabs before closing the browser, but sometimes I may left a couple of them opened.

I don't want them open! I can't understand anyone wanting to accumulate 150 tabs. Going through and closing them is tedious. When I'm finished with a browser I'm finished with it, why would I continue the same websites again?

On this one we discuss Opera One for desktops.

My phone browser is Adblocker Free. It has no option so I have to have it remmeber the tabs. But on a phone it's worse, there is no bar of tabs. So without realising, it's loading 150 tabs when I start it!

Many people seem to like to have several tabs opened and that feature is useful to get those tabs back when starting Opera.

And those who don't want to have the tabs from previous session being opened on startup can simply close those tabs.

@hucker That's expected, I guess, since the last closed window is recovered by default when you start Opera.

Surely that's the first idiotic option to be turned off by everyone? Yes, lets look at the same web pages I did yesterday. What?!?
