      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.

          Uhhhh...... Opera. I have no idea what those mean. Why are there now three browsers?

          Help about says Opera One, but I never selected "one", I just went to opera.com and downloaded the browser.

              @hucker I opened a new window, opened a few tabs on it, closed the window and could see it listed under recently closed here.

                  @leocg Well it doesn't do it here on the latest version. I just closed the only open Opera window, which included this very page in the forum. I reopened Opera and it's not in recently closed.

                    @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?!?

                        @hucker I would guess that 8 out of 10 don't disable that feature.

                        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.

                          @leocg The thing is, they build up. 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!

                            @hucker That's a discussion for a different area of the forum. On this one we discuss Opera One for desktops.

                              @leocg And? This applies to all browsers on all platforms. Tab buildup.

                                @hucker And what I said, if you want to discuss about Opera for Android, just do it in the proper section of the forum.

                                  @leocg Are you serious? I'm not talking about android! I'm talking about tabs remaining open!

                                    @hucker Just don't close them, as already said.

                                      @leocg No..... 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?

                                        @hucker If you don't want them opened, then close the tabs.

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

                                          @leocg I have it close everything when I close the browser, because it's the only logical way.

                                            @hucker if you want to open opera on your desktop with no previous tabs from your session, just enable the start with a fresh tab setting in the startup section if I'm not mistaken, and if it's for mobile, enable clearing open tabs through exit option and exit opera mobile using the exit button through the toolbar settings. Do mention if you need any help with doing so.
