      so I've just typed "y" and pressed enter in order to go to youtube, but ever since I accidentally typed y/ ONCE and hit enter, the browser ignored the 2 quadrillion years of me pressing y to go to youtube and instead autofills it to y/ which redirects to nowhere. It's driving me crazy. Also, there's no (X) at the right side of the autofill to remove it.

        @tempuserc As said, you can try using Shift + Del.

          I'm having an issue with Opera GX where I can't seem to make a custom search engine the default. I've added the search engine (You.com) to the list of available options, but when I try to set it as the default by clicking the "make default" button, it's blocked and won't let me do so. I'm not sure what the issue is or how to fix it, so I was wondering if anyone else has encountered this problem and knows of a solution.

          Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!

            @ggaroto As a simple search would have told you, only the pre-defined search engines can be set as default.

                  @titoxwww As said several times, those are processes and not opened pages. Use Shift + Esc or menu > developer> task manager to see the processes running in Opera.

                    My Opera GX version is 93. In the picture, one of the games I play, Cookie Clicker, the images to the right side and the top writing is so white to the point were I cannot see them, I have tried to reinstall Opera GX and even remove my extensions but nothing is working. Any help would be appreciated, Thank you.

                      @skajort Did you try disabling Force Dark Pages for the site as said? You can also try setting opera://flags/#enable-force-dark to Selective inversion of non-image elements if Force Dark Pages is enabled.

                        I used to use google search as a default search engine. At the "Search engines" tile there are only Yandex, Wikipedia and yandex translator. I added google at the bottom. But still can't set it as default. Screenshot 2023-02-11 170826.png and Screenshot 2023-02-11 170850.png

                          @aaqasmzad As known, only pre-defined search engines can be set as default one.

                                @aaqasmzad If it's not on the list of pre-defined search engines, it can't be used as the default one.

                                    @aaqasmzad Did you try uninstalling and reinstalling Opera? You may need to create a new profile directory.

                                        @aaqasmzad The list of pre-defined search engines depends on the region you are. Maybe Opera was installed when you were in a different place?

                                          @leocg I saw a post about this topic. The mod said change the country and country_from_server to US at the Local state file. I did it. But nothing happened

                                            @leocg It's fixed.
                                            Every time I install opera I was ticking "make opera gx default browser". But last time I didn't. When it installed google was deafult by itself. And the past search engines are not even in the list like in my pc. Thank you for your help mod. I appreciate it ❤
