It happens on portable too.
It does show the latest tabs (the normal opera install, not just portable) if I before exiting close the previously lastest tabs.
What i mean is:
Lets say I install opera, open ebay.com, surf on that one tab and exit opera.
I start opera again - tab is ebay.com , I surf on that tab to facebook.com and exit opera.
I start opera again - tab is still ebay.com, not facebook.com .
But if in addition to ebay.com tab I open another tab and surf to facebook.com, close the ebay.com tab , when I reopen it will show the facebook.com tab.

@burnout426 said in Opera doesn't open the previous tab when starts:

What happens if you goto the URL opera://flags/#new-session-manager, disable the flag,

yes that got it working properly.
Isn't fixed on 85.0.4341.60

@burnout426
it sounds to me like it's Opera. What else could it be ?
It happens even in Safe Mode.
Win7

@leocg
yes, opening the old page is the only problem.
The other stuff I wrote is just me explaining what to do so it doesnt open the old page -> close the tab that the old page was on before exiting, meaning you shouldn't even surf on that tab because if you leave it open it will always show that page it opened with and not the page you left it at before exiting.

Try in a test standalone installation.

doesnt work in that either

this has not been working corectly for a couple of updates now. Deleting Sessions folder makes it work once and then keeps showing that same tab on every new opening.
