<![CDATA[no way to disable AliExpress notification on speed dial]]>every time i open new tab a speed dial page opens and AliExpress notification appears

0_1541673978444_56a4da5f-1df0-4561-9fa4-2c762f9199f8-image.png
i checked everywhere i could - speed dial suggestions are off, promoted speed dials are off, notifications are off, i don't even have AE anywhere in my bookmarks, and using very occasionally... and i still get this popup.
how to get rid of it? is that new Opera policy, to push unwanted adds with no option to disable? O_o chose that browser for contrary reasons...

thx!

Guess it's time to go back to Firefox.

Till the next AliExpess promotion.
I live in Belarus - one of the countries from the list above (in ..buszmen..'s message). So it seems that Opera has some special ad policy for our countries. Sad news.

Try deleting all cookies that have "aliexpress" in them. Or even "ali-" anything, if you're careful. And completely clear the cache back to forever. Also search your C drive, including hidden and system folders, for anything related to AliExpress and uninstall or delete it.

I clicked and in my case it leads to "https://alitems.com/g/1e8d114494a47a83735c16525dc3e8/?ulp=https%3A%2F%2Fsale.aliexpress.com%2Fpl%2F__pc%2F20181111_main.htm&subid=11.11.2018_TB_PL"

The link (or its ending) may be different depends on what country are you in.
I found the link in opera_browser.dll among many others. From what I see the link should appear only in:

  • Poland
  • Russia
  • Ukraine
  • Belarus
  • Kazakhstan
  • Czech Republic
  • Brazil

The link can be found in 56.0.3051.99 but not in 56.0.3051.52, so it's brand new.

And closing it using "x" seems to only disabling it for 24h or so. I can see it for 3 days in a row now.

EDIT: New lead. I clicked "x" on mine today, so I can't check it, but ... I noticed a new file in Opera resources folder (mine is: c:\Program Files (x86)\Opera\56.0.3051.99\resources) called partner_speeddials.json. It contains urls to Aliexpress icon and site and many other partners (sic!). Can someone try to remove it and check if the Aliexpress bar is gone? I can only confirm that Opera starts without this file just fine.
