      Hello, good morning.
      Bit of a weird one this, but after the latest release, when searching for images - gifs, in Google - they don't animate anymore? In FF, Edge, Chrome everything is fine.
      For example, if you check here and then click the first cat, the gif plays fine in all browsers aside from Chrome;

      I hope you can help. Have cleared everything and also reinstalled Opera but still no joy.
      Many thanks in advance.

        @hot-potato I meant aside from Opera sorry, not Chrome.

            @leocg Good morning. Yeah it's odd, I've since found that it's working on a laptop fine. Any ideas or suggestions what it may be?

              @hot-potato Try reseting Opera's settings. Also make sure that hardware acceleration is enabled and being used.

                  @leocg aha. Did that again, uninstalled, reinstalled after using Ccleaner to clean up the registry etc and now all is back to normal! Thank you so very much. Have a great weekend 👍🏻

                    Topic closed as solved. If in up until to a month the author needs the thread to be reopened, just report it. briefly explaining the reason.

                        Hi, thank you for reopening. This seems to have lasted for a day or so then reverted back to it's original state. It's quite weird as it was a fresh install again and a reset.
                        If push comes to shove, I will do it again and see what happens. It's not a life threatening situation after all, but an annoyance more than anything. 🙂
