To have it disappear (a workaround): right click on the window and "reload frame".

@leocg Evidently I broke a rule - sorry about that. I will read the instructions and repost appropriately. Thank you for your patience.

For this to happen, both Opera and Ecosia need to want it, and it has to be profitable for both. So did you already contacted Ecosia? What they say about it? Di dthey already try an agreement with Opera?

@bamh1d Well, I can now report that the problem somehow seems to be resolved. That is to say, I can once again open links in Opera without having to close/re-open it. I don't understand any of this - how having an active Google tab seemingly blocked opening of other links, and how the problem apparently was fixed without any intervention from me. Anyone care to comment?

Opera supports search shortcuts, and unfortunately Z is the shortcut for Amazon. you either need to type a G before the whole thing (to force Google) or put it in quotes to force it to be considered a single search term.

@wosi, could you please try again with updated version of Opera Touch (1.5)?

@m-n-g I think it is only work in address bar not in Speed Dial bar. So, type in address bar Edit : Sorry, I didn't read this forum is for Linux. I use Windows 10 v.1709 (RS3)
