Hey, well ..

1° - you can try see if your opera version is updated.

2° - see if opera://flags/#enable-aura-tooltips-on-windows is enabled.

3° - you can try a fresh start opera. opera://update/
(this will delete some configs, history, bookmarks....)

OR you can download latest version on site https://blogs.opera.com/desktop/
and install.

You can simply right click on target link and select Copy link address. Paste the address in new tab so you can read the URL easily.

Thanks, but...

• I've installed Opera from its official source a few days ago, so this can't possibly be a version issue

• aura tooltips were already enabled

Interesting... How did your idea come about that this could be related to hardware acceleration? Doesn't sound like the most obvious connection.

hmmm it's works?

it would be nice to know if it worked because so we would be prepared to answer that kind of question in the future.
When this happened to me, the fix came out in the Opera next build, but it's been a long time.

Sometimes feels that link/url popup is not displayed, when some of tabs is loading or stuck into some missing javascript fetch or similar. Unfortunately I cannot reproduce such behavor at will, thereby no bugs reported and no recommendations here to avoid this.

@nvmjustagirl I cannot understand why, but this actually worked for me. I reset, with a relaunch after selection to off and again after setting to on, and it just worked.
I am actually amazed that it worked...
