      Title says it all, basically. I tried installing Opera 52 and Opera 57 - both had the same problem: the (unpinned) sidebar is completely blank/empty. I can still hover over it, and tooltips appear, showing where the buttons are, and the invisible buttons work, but it's annoying. Pinned, the sidebar works as expected, but uses a lot of screen real-estate.

      I've previously used both those versions of Opera on Win7 without this problem, and have no idea what could be causing it. Any suggestions/help? (other than "update Opera" - the UI in newer versions of Opera is cr*p)

                Apologies, leocg; my bad. Will post screenshots asap; currently trying to reinstall windows 7. Pretty sure it was with a clean profile; no previous installations of Opera on that PC.

                  @darthagnon Any difference if you disable hardware acceleration?
