      No, pure default installation. I didn't found any flag regarding titlebar or buttons.

            Hi guys, @sencor90, @pindos, perhaps a little late reply, but as they say "better late than never" ;-)

            You can make it visible again, just follow the steps: go to Settings -> Window Manager Tweaks > Accessibility, and uncheck the checkbox on the left of "Hide frame of windows when maximized".

            Window Manager Tweaks - Accessibility

              I had the issue of a maximized Opera "fighting" not do be un-maximized or resized using latest LinuxMint (Cinnamon) – min | max/rest | close window decorations were visible, though. Using a swift mouse move it was possible to move the maximized Opera from one Screen to an adjacent, different sized monitor where it instantly maximized itself again. All those mouse interactions leading to flickering, by the way.

              I checked any of Cinnamon's "snap to *" settings but what did get me Opera restored was to save the session with V7 Session sidebar extension, closing Opera, deleting "Current Session" from the profile, and ultimately restoring the session from V7 Sessions.

              I guess, there is a bug – and perhaps it is the same the OP was suffering from.

                @l33t4opera Ok, thank you. It's solution. But I have a small display (Asus EeePC). When I uncheck this checkbox, another titlebar appears. The visible area of browser decreases. 😞

                      The windows buttons are also gone in the default install of Ubuntu 18.04. Surely there is a fix for this...?

                            @emoxam , I use Linux Mint 19.1 Cinnamon. Opera works normal. I have four buttons at upper right corner - Tab menu, Minimize, Restore, Close. It looks like Windows 10.

                              @pindos Are you sure you are talking about maximized opera window ? Because i have these buttons too, until the window is maximized!
