@karen-arzumanyan Small update. This is being analyzed and worked on. Turns out the bug is caused by this change in Chromium. Opera will have to adjust things because of it. No guarantee on when, but at least it's being looked at.

@xb70 On macOS, I think there's an issue with cookies not being migrated properly. On Windows, things seems to be good so far. Of course, no guarantees.

@healingcross Opera Just tries to follow Chromium development pace, and since they seem to be little bit behind, they may need to speed things up

@leocg I think, that may be a problem for every browser maker that relies on Chromium and isn't Google. AFAIK even Microsoft is still one step behind. Especially when they modify the UI like Opera and Vivaldi do.

@healingcross Yes, Opera has always been a few builds behind but usually on the same version. However, now it seems to be a couple of versions behind.

@burnout426 So the issue is related to this one https://forums.opera.com/post/330740?
Because no cursor for Ctrl+F depends on scale factor in Windows.

That mentions other input fields besides the ctrl + f one, so not sure if it's related to that case, but might be.
Because no cursor for Ctrl+F depends on scale factor in Windows.
Details here https://forums.opera.com/post/327812Yes, it's noted in the bug that the cursor issue is at 100% scaling and that at 120% it's fine, but input field borders are cut off.

I installed 104.0.4944.33 on one of two Windows 10/64 machines, and it worked, albeit, with a hiccup. At first it seemed to have bombed out--with a loss of personalization, but upon closure and reopening, it was okay. I downloaded and installed manually, rather than using the auto-updated instance--which was showing, the little dot on the O, and a notice of an impending update, upon closure and reopening, if that even would have worked--usually on my machines updating from Update & Recovery doesn't work.
I do have a question about auto updates or updating using Update & Recovery in settings: In doing the manual version, one has to click past first the download permission, allowing or not, cookies, then after the download upon installation, there is another place to disallowed cookies with an additional four check boxes to uncheck. What happens with all that if one uses the auto-update loaded instance? I do not believe that one is prompted for any of that. Does the process simply (1) allow all cookies by default, or (2) does it know one's previous choices, and assume those, or (3) does it by default disallow cookies (the way that it should be, but is not now)? -

@leocg Is that a reply to my question? Or a previous post in the thread? If it is to my question, I was not intending to ask about cookie treatment except to find out, if auto install takes place of if the installation is Update & Recovery in settings, what happens to all those cookie setting which one must click through, five of them, in doing a manual install? There seemed to be three possibilities: Does the process simply (1) allow all cookies by default, or (2) does it know one's previous choices, and assume those, or (3) does it by default disallow cookies (the way that it should be, but is not now)?

@xb70 If you're talking about the consent settings in the installer, they are also available in Opera at the URL
opera://settings/privacy/consentFlowafter you install Opera. An auto update should keep whatever settings you have there. -

@burnout426 Yes, that is part of the answer which I was seeking, pertaining to if or where the four things which one must tick off, that is uncheck, when installing a manually downloaded update. Thank you, Burnout426. But what about the cookie setting which one much get past when downloading the update? Can one check if that is in effect too? One must either accept (the apparent default) or not cookies (click it off, if desired), to download. There is opera://settings/cookies but I do not see anything in that which seems to correspond to one's acceptance of them or rejection as accepted in order to download.

@burnout426 I cannot upload either a PDF or a pic, sorry. Basically, when one attempts to download from this page: https://www.opera.com/download the first thing which one must do is get past the cookies acceptance pop-up:
Cookies We use cookies to improve your experience on our website. By clicking Accept cookies, you agree to the use of cookies for marketing and analytics purposes. Further information can be found in our Privacy Statement and Cookies Policy. Accept cookies Manage cookies You either click Accept cookies (the default in blue) or Manage cookies (wherein one can not accept them): Our Use Of Cookies Necessary cookies These cookies are used for website functionality, such as storing your settings and preferences. You can disable these in your browser settings, but it may affect website functionality. Marketing & Analytics cookies [You toggle a slider here to off if you don't want them--it is on by default, to accept them.] We recommend accepting these cookies, which include third-party cookies, for the improvement of our products and everyone’s experience.

Accept selection [Then you accept your selection.]So my question is what happens to these choices--where can one check up on them, in Opera similar to the place in opera://settings/privacy/consentFlow which shows the four checkbox choices made to install the download.
I am not allowed to upload a Pic/PDF image, apparently.
, that doesn’t sound good for user security.
