Opera creating strange paths to files on the computer

I open a .png file from a sub-directory in Home. When I open it in Firefox, it shows the correct path:
file:///home/eric/Public/Bleak%20Midwinter/Cover/Cover%208%20christmas%20trees%20gold%20with%20seal.png
But when I open it in Opera, it shows this path:
file:///run/user/1000/doc/aMYybcqiqijkJvRuZfSoxg/Cover%208%20christmas%20trees%20gold%20with%20seal.png.
Where does that path come from? Why does Opera do that?

And when I restart my computer and re-open Opera, it says it can't open the file.

I'm using FF 158.0(64 bit) and Opera One(version: 136.0.6008.80) on Fedora 44 workstation edition.

@E-opera What about other Chromium browsers?

@leocg Same result as with Opera.
How is this relevant?

Are you using the RPM package or the snap package or the flatpak package of Opera?

@E-opera It means that it's something from Chromium and not from Opera. So, if it needs to be fixed, Chromium needs to do that.
