[Solved] Bug: Frozen content while website requests for permissions from another tab

When a site requests for (desktop notifications, microphone, camera, etc) permissions from another tab, the content in all tabs remains frozen until user locates the culprit and responds to the pop-up. It may seem small but quickly becomes an annoyance when you tend to browse with dozens of tabs open. This problem will also grow as more and more websites implement desktop notifications these days.

What version of Opera and OS? I can't confirm it on Windows 10.

I am confident to have seen it on Windows 10 too, although I mostly work with Windows 7.

Version: 44.0.2510.857 (PGO) - Opera is up to date
Update stream: Stable
System: Windows 7 64-bit (WoW64)

Try with latest stable version, that is. 1159.

I could not replicate the issue on two test machines (Windows 7 and 10) running build 1159.

My personal machine would not detect any updates. Any idea why?
I have updated manually now.

There can be many reasons but it's subject for another topic.
