--- Comment #45 from Rafael Linux User <rafael.linux.u...@gmail.com> ---
I’m sorry for sending another message here, but this is really the solution for
all those who, like me, don’t have a backup of the contents of the ~/.config/
folder.

As I mentioned in my previous email, I found it really strange that the size of
my file "dolphin_dolphin_dolphin" was much larger than the other copies, and it
was very frustrating to have lost the more than 8 tabs with dual panels that I
usually keep open (I manage servers). Well, determined to find out what was in
that file, I discovered the simplest solution using a text editor to recover
your "lost" tabs without needing backups:
1 - Close Dolphin
2 - Run "kate ~/.config/session/dolphin_dolphin_dolphin"
3 - Search (Ctrl + F) for the text "Tab Data" and go to the last line where
that text appears. For example, for me, the last line containing that string
was "Tab Data 9=". Take note of the number and add 1 to it. In my case, 10.
4 - Go to the beginning of the file, find the line "Tab Count=", and change the
number there to the one you calculated. For me, it became "Tab Count=10".
5 - Save the file
6 - Open Dolphin and magically, all your tabs will reappear.

And now, I’ll stay quiet.
