I had changed the wallpaper to that of a picture on my pc. I went to change the picture today and can no longer find the step to do so. I went to the Help page and found a section on Themes which seem to be the answer - except, there is no Themes option on the main menu as stated. Has this feature been discontinued?

Wallpaper is displayed as a background in speed dial and some other internal pages.
For posterity:
I just discovered the Dark Theme makes the caption buttons more readable. -

Since downloading Opera on Windows 10 I've noticed a persistently weird behaviour - when it crashes the MOZILLA FIREFOX crash reporter opens up, instead, though both Opera and the Opera crash reporter show up in the Task Manager as still open (just not on screen).
Firefox was not running at the time, not even as a program listed in the Task Manager but not on-screen, either.
Any idea what's causing this?
It's not affecting my use of either browser. It's just really strange.

I have developed a problem over the past 2 or 3 weeks regarding Opera Mail (sorry, I cannot find a forum specific to mail). When I attempt to open Opera Mail, I get the following error and the program then asks about sending an error log to technical people (I have), then the program asks if I want to restart or close. I pick restart, and the error repeats itself. I cannot access the program at all anymore. Any ideas?:

Running Opera 47 with Windows 7. While browsing, I have tabs popping up for dating, sex and brides and other offers. I immediately ran a full virus scan with ZoneAlarm (with the latest updates) and it keeps happening. I don't know if this is an Opera or Windows thing. Anyone have advice on what I can do to stop this short of reinstalling windows and Opera?

It is not something built-in to Opera, as I haven't seen it. Whether there might be some bad extensions available I couldn't say. I only have two extensions installed - Bookmarks by the side (no longer very useful though) and Gismeteo weather for speed dial.
Opera's pop-up blocker should mean they are not coming from web pages - if you haven't disabled the pop-up blocker. Which leaves adware on your system as the most likely cause. An antivirus program may not identify adware, you should download some anti-adware program like Ad-Aware and see what it finds.

When I close Opera all my extensions are removed.
I remember seeing a thread about such a problem not too long ago.
If you can't find it with the search or otherwise, it'd be better if you start a specific thread about your problem: it seems we might need to know your system configuration etc. It's not common to lose such data that way, so... -

I have been using You tube for years downloading from opera. For the last several weeks (maybe since last update - now on 47) there are NO BUTTONS in You Tube for downloading. I restarted Opera and ire-installed Opera with no luck. I have extensions loaded and enabled. What do do about this?

Why when I try to Delete a bookmark that does not fit on the bookmarks toolbar, it fails, Opera goes in the Express panel?! (((

What is the remedy?The obvious answer is that you have Opera Mail set to leave the messages on the server and it's re-downloading them every time. Set it to delete them from the server when you download them.

Or the server is not configured to allow deleting from a client (we used to have that issue with Gmail all the time).
