@jasonjosephnyc Vote for Save Selected Tabs as a Session A workaround for what you want is to right-click on the tab bar and move the tab stack to a new window, then save the tabs in that window as a session.

@pareo said in Combine sessions and history: Create a history event on Tabgroup / Window close: This could have advantages / different use cases than an auto-saved session, because it not only stores the state, but also the date of the event The OP wants to save the state of the tabs too, plus the date. However, saving a session already save the date that the session was saved. The linked Autosave feature request auto-saves the current session, and the Sessions Panel offers options for editing sessions. I don't see anything new in the current feature request.

According to the task manager, it seems that all the tabs are closing appropriately. I shall do more investigation looking at disabling extensions to see if this solves the issue. UPDATE: I can confirm this isn't because of any mods, and so is probably being caused by an extension. I will now need to do the whole one-by-one thing to figure out which. UPDATE 2: I can confirm it still happens with extensions disabled as well. Perhaps it is profile related?

@dude99 Admins could do that but there are only 20 Session-related feature requests.

This should be a default behavior, same with open a bunch of bookmarks from a folder.

@valiowk On v2 RC2 it still works. :P You mean on v2 stable, do you? (I don't have the mod there).

@pesala There is no valid solution to the problem. This is a must needed feature, without extensions.

@haphiz Vivaldi already saves sessions as a file. They have a *.bin extension and are saved in: \Vivaldi\User Data\Default\Sessions I suggest voting for the existing request for a Sessions Panel, which would make it easier to edit sessions.

@digitrance If the Sessions Panel were implemented, that would probably do what you need. Meanwhile: Save all windows as a session Close the unwanted windows Save the remain windows as another session Close all but one Window Reopen the full saved session, and repeat

I discovered that QupZilla (soon to be Falcon) with QtWebEngine backend does this already. Would be interesting if the Chomium framework leaves enough inception points to do this. Maybe upstream could benefit from needed changes or support this feature themselves.

@ondrej-ulman Vivaldi already does save the current session on closing. Set the startup setting to "Last Session." If Vivaldi crashes, or if some processes are running in the background, the session won't be saved. If you encounter this problem, use Task Manager to end all Vivaldi tasks, then the session should again save OK.

@ka24deracer I won't pretend to understand this feature request, but if it works for Chrome and not in Vivaldi, shouldn't it be submitted as a Bug Report?

workaround so long: save all pages in a folder (e.g. with contextmenu in tabbar) assign a nickname to this folder open the folder with nickname

@diehydrated In external PDF readers such as Okular, this is referred to as a bookmark.

@pesala Where did you save your bookmarks when you last exported them? In a directory where I save backup info. I use Ubuntu: ~/Backups/Vivaldi

@overflow It's a missing feature. A feature many users might be interested in. I'd like to see this implemented as an item in the sync data settings.

As this is the most requested panel feature, I would suggest to start it with simple steps. Just copy the old opera 12 style session handling, and will see where to evolve later.
