      Hello,

      I am using 65.0.3467.48 version of Opera. My OS is Windows 10 pro 64Bit. There are no updates that I can apply. All is up to date.

      When I select text using mouse, there is a popup displayed for search,copy,etc. From time to time I do a selection that popup appears and CPU usage spikes up. Opera goes to unresponsive on all open tabs. I can only end process using task manager.

      I am not able to figure how and where that happens (re-production) but it seems to happen mostly on online sales web sites. Selection is not necessarily to be an URL. It can be a simple text.

      That problem exists for a while now.

      There are several plug-ins like Internet Download Manager, Ad Blocker, RoboForm, DarkReader.

      I wonder if there are others facing the issue.
      I wonder what can I do get a log for filing a bug report or something.

      Any help is appreciated.

      Thanks & regards,
      Ertan

          After disabling one plugin that I suspected. I did not have any lock at all.
          I already reported that to developer. Will let them know again.

          Thanks.

              That was IDM (Internet Download Manager) for me.
