      It is a MUST HAVE feature. Not only with multiple tabs, but woth a single tab too.
      Of course, it has to have a switch in the settings.

      It is a simple feature to implement, so everyone +1 this thread please!

        Yes, this was in the old Opera browser too before they went to Chromium. I need this since I get click stupid sometimes and miss the minimize button.

          Please Add this feature. Like so many others I lose everything when I accidentally hit the close button. Seems like it shouldn't be so hard to add this and make many users happy. Thank you!

            Why would people ask NOT to add such an important feature. Put it in the options so people can choose. The lack of this feature is why I will not move to Opera as my main browser,the rest of it I love. But I use tabs all the time and when I go to close the window I can accidentally close 10 tabs and then it is too late. OPERA PLEASE add this as an option, to warn before closing multiple tabs. I have been reading many forums and this is a big complaint. I will make Opera my default browser when this is added but not until.

              Just did it to me, if the developer were in front of me I would give him a bitch slap!

              Seriously, which bright spark thought this would be a good idea when every other windows prgram since 1983 asks you to confirm you want to exit.

              I am trialling Opera at the moment, this is a show stopper

              A friend of mine in LA says "F'ing useless piece of Sh1t" when he gets frustrated with software, it applies here.

                It's not a bug so there is nothing to be fixed. Even if it was, you couldn't come here and shout demanding a fix for it.

                This forum is to politely ask for features, options, etc. No demands are allowed here.

                  Of course it's a bug, it's a missing obvious feature every other browser has.

                    It's not a bug. Missing features are not bugs.

                        This is absolutely missing. Just lost ~30 tabs because I had 2 windows and accidentally closed the wrong one first. This or a session manager.
                        Really, I need a session manager. Bookmarks just aren't dynamic enough for active projects!

                          I would like to see a confirmation dialogue when exiting Opera as well.

                          Pressing the × by accident does occur from time to time which messes up my workflow. I am sure that everyone who heavily relies on their web browser would agree.

                          It is never fun having to log in again, having to wait for the browser and apps to reinitialise as you are on the phone with a client on hold, or more importantly, losing your work altogether.

                          A confirmation dialogue is a simple solution to a real problem which even Microsoft had kept in mind with the introduction of tabs in Internet Explorer 7.

                            @leocg A missing feature is not a bug... well at least you're acknowleding that it is MISSING. Users have been asking for this feature for years. Other browsers have it, there is no reason for opera to not have it as well, and NO reason they can't add it to newer versions.
