@nameofthename This happens also with other chromium based browsers, so i think this is Windows issue. Hopefully it will be fixed soon.

So after updating, I havent encountered the bug again. However, since last update I have upgraded my pc and so reinstalled windows. Which has me thinking it could be a file that might get corrupted or deleted after every up date? Not really too sure, I just know that for me reinstalling windows hopefully has fixed it

I can reproduce it easily. Just need to bookmark https://mxtoolbox.com/SuperTool.aspx and it does it.

@burnout426 I dont know what sites use high ram. I dont use operas ad blocker but I use an external one. I usually only have 3 tabs open at a time though.

Thanks! I'll see if it's enabled right now to make sure.

Fixed it by changing the value of ScanWithAntivirus to 1, just like the post said.

@george0822 Okay.

I'm having trouble reproducing the issue with Opera GX 92.0.4561.55 64-bit on Windows 11 Version 22H2 (Build 22621.819).

Goto the URL opera://extensions. Do you have any extensions in there that are not supposed to be there or any extensions that are not from https://chrome.google.com/webstore/category/extensions or https://addons.opera.com/. If you do find something odd there, turn developer mode on the opera://extensions page and click details for the malicious extension. Then, post the ID and name of the extension here.

Quite a few users are getting infected with some malware that force-installs an extension in Opera that hijacks your searches etc. and sometimes it causes Opera to close and restart. I'd scan your system with the free version of Malwarebytes to make sure snuck on your computer.

If anyone still has this problem, open new window after open the Opera GX, use that new window and close the first opening window, this way url appear correctly, at least for me.
