Two windows open, one with many tabs. Accidentally closed it. How to avoid losing that session?
-
Two windows open, one with many tabs which I want Vivaldi to restore when it next starts. I accidentally closed it and am currently in the other window with just 2 tabs open.
Windows says "permission denied" when I try to copy, open or view the Current Session file in Vivaldi\User Data\Default.
I have to reboot the machine very shortly. I assume when I close the Vivaldi window I'm currently in, it will overwrite the big session with the 2 tabs open in this window. What can I do to preserve the big session?

@rf10 I had to go ahead and close the second window. Bizarrely, Vivaldi restored the big session when it next started. I don't follow the logic of that all, but am happy that it did so.

Next time click the trash can in the top left of the vivaldi window that is still open. You'll find your closed window there with an option to restore it. Or open the window panel and check the trash there.

@Komposten Hi and thanks. I tried that and the trash icon in the second window was greyed out and not clickable. But that's an awesome feature - will try it if it happens again.
-
the way you describe it sounds like your second window was a private window
-
@MaxKarlErnst Ah, it was - that saved the day in that case! It's probably why the trash can was greyed out as well.
