      When I open Opera it is always so that the size of the Opera startwindow is very big and its shape is that of the monitor. So I think it comes up with a specific ratio of the monitor size.
      I want Opera to remember my wanted size. On Windows 11 that works very well; but on Linux it always comes up with this bothering size.

      Who knows how to make Opera to remember its last size or a its adjusted size?

        As a workaround, you can use the --window-size and --window-position command-line options to always start Opera at a certain size and position. You can create a separate shortcut for it or modify Opera's existing shortcut.

            I tested with the deb package of Opera 121.0.5600.38 on Linux Mint Cinnamon 22.1 and Opera saves and restores both the window size and position no problem, for what it's worth.
