How to recover a deleted window ?

[stargate]

Hi everybody !

The title says it all. I know a deleted tab can be recovered with CTRL-T but... a deleted window ?

Many thanks in advance for your answer !

Hi, if I understand correctly you cant.
If you have two Windows and close one all tabs are moved to the other Window and it depends on how you close it.
There is a difference between the X icon and Exit from the Vivaldi menu.
You maybe find lost tabs from a Window in the Window panel trash bin.

Cheers, mib

@mib2soprano Hi MIB

I endeed "X"ed the window and no... the tabs it contained does NOT add up the one in the remaining open window. This would ensue a mess. I know I could check the opened tab history but this is not convenient if the closed tabs were not opened in a sequential order so... NOT like Firefox where you have a windows history to restore easily !

Yep, if you use the X it wipe the window completely.
No it is not like Firefox.
I am not a big window user maybe another user can help better here.

Cheers, mib

@stargate If I close a tab with two windows using the X button, I see this on the Closed Tabs list.

If the Window had only one tab, reopening that tab reopens the Window.

@Pesala Thank you for telling us where is this... "Closed Tab list" ! In the menu ? The side bar ?

@stargate In Window Panel.

@DoctorG Got it ! Thanks...

also you may want to check out the new sessions panel and auto save your sessions to prevent losing anything https://help.vivaldi.com/desktop/panels/sessions-panel/

@stargate Also on the Trash Can on the Tab Bar.

Good alternatives BUT, if we haven't done WildEnte's trick, Pesala's suggestion is full of sense !

press { Ctrl+Shift+T} all together

@fazeel47 What ? Does this restore the newly deleted window ?

@stargate no, it only opens closed tabs from the "closed tabs" or trashcan, one at the time
Anyway I just tried opening 2 new windows, in window 2 I had 2 tabs, on window 3 I opened 5 tabs.
Then I proceeded to close window 3 then window 2 by clicking the X on the upper right.
Well, only the winow with 2 tabs appears in the closed tabs "Windows with 2 tabs", no trace whatsoever of the window with 5 tabs.
I just retried, now opened a window with 6 tabs and then restored the window with 2 tabs. Then Closed them
Now I only have 2 times (!) the winow with 6 tabs, and no trace of the window with 2 tabs. W T F

Bugged and unreliable. Save your session OFTEN. And report the bug if you can replicate. I'll stay away from creating new windows, and luckily I'm not a tab hoarder.
