Opera 85

I'm using Opera on Linux Mint Cinnamon 20.3. Starting from the latest update to O85, it ignores --start-maximized flag. Before I needn't even used it as the window was reopened at the state it was closed. Now the behavior is broken.

@leocg There's another change I didn't make: When I open Opera from a link in an email, it previously opened my designated start page too in the left tab spot. Now with 85 it doesn't open it, only the link page. Why this change? Is there a setting for that? Really annoying.

@sgrandin As far as I know, nothing has changed regarding it.

@leocg Perhaps a bug? I've been using Opera a very long time, as you have, and have never seen this. To be sure, I checked another email link and it did the same thing. Here are a couple of screenshots (the Upload Image link here gave a parse error):

A volume control would be useful here.

Chrome released an emergency version 99.0.4844.84 because a serious bug, it's available on Edge too, are you planing to do so?

volume control

I'd like to see volume control also on tab's tooltip (instead of the useless 'this tab is playing audio' text)

@sgrandin The "Ask me when Opera is started by a shortcut specifying an URL" option at the URL opera://settings/onStartup is enabled by default. It would only be off if you disabled it yourself. With that said, the setting has probably been enabled all along for you without any problems. Something with the feature might just have changed (bug or better detection).

When I open Opera from a link in an email, it previously opened my designated start page too in the left tab spot. Now with 85 it doesn't open it, only the link page. Why this change?

At the URL opera://settings/onStartup, there's a "Display the start page first" that's on by default (along with its parent "retain tabs from previous session" option) that makes the start page open when you start Opera. It shouldn't be off unless you changed it. If Opera is closed and you launch a URL that launches Opera which causes Opera to start up, the start page should show then too, unless the URL you launched happens to be already opened. Then, the start page might not show (which might have been the case if you were testing with the same email link). And, of course, in the case of Opera already being open, the start page page shouldn't show as "show start page first" is just a startup option.

@hectormaciasa1979: They are definitely planning, the only question is when? it should be already

Good thing, already chromium in the x.84 version. However, just today chromium version 100 came out, and I'm not sorry 101 after an hour :))))

@treego: Can we get some sort of official verification, like a standalone page or change log or such, that this does patch to that Chrome version (which is their 0-day vulnerability update)? It's been awful hard to find any note on this, while Chrome and Microsoft have been more forthcoming about it.

Opera 85.0.4341.28 on Linux is not saving its window geometry when closing. The application always starts the same size centred on screen so if you close the browser maximized, for example, it doesn't open maximized next time Opera is started. Not a deal breaker but a lot of users enjoy Opera opening with the same window geometry when it was last closed.

When updating from 85.0.4341.18 to 85.0.4341.28 (Win10) Opera crashes on startup with 0cx0000022 error. Any suggestions?
