PC crashed, no more tabs or history

My PC crashed, rebooted unexpectedly, now when I start opera there are no more tabs open nor is there any history, is there any way I can recover the tabs that were open or see my history? I'm using opera 11.51

In your Opera profile directory global_history.dat (recent visited history) and in the Sessions subdirectory autosave.win or autosave.win.bak (including open tab info) are normally preserved but could be overwritten when restarting Opera after a severe crash, so you may be SOL. In Win 7 you can try to recover previous file versions (right click in windows explorer) if you're familiar with that process. If so, replace the recovered files for the current versions with Opera closed.
