      Don't post the same thing more than once.

      https://forums.opera.com/rules

      I guess everyone already got your steps to reproduce the problem, so stop repeating the same thing several times because it will not make the issue to be reproducible for all other users.
      Instead, try answering the questions and following the instructions/tips given by others in order to try to solve the problem.

        @leocg I only posted it again to make it clearer how it happens as it seemed to fall on deaf ears. I have just tried the same procedure on a second pc (i have 6) and the issue doesnt happen. This is very odd
        same os same opera version same profile settings etc.
        as to answering questions i didnt see any aimed at me but will try to answer all i see.

        i cant see any obvious difference between the 2 pcs one does it one doesnt. gotta love pc's

        I am only trying to help here as i get same thing as OP

        not sure where to go from here though
        diff pc's
        same cpu
        same windows
        same opera version
        same software installed
        baffling
        maybe i try on pc number 4 and 5 etc
        will post back

                I mean to rename Opera's profile folder so a new one will be created.

                  That's kinda weird but it's great that you've found the solution.

                            That is the installation folder. Except for portable installations, your data is stored somewhere else, like in any Windows program by the way.

                              I tempted fate it started again
                              unwilling to mess with profile folders etc as dont want to lose
                              bookmarks or passes etc on which i rely
                              will just look for a replacement for opera
                              such a shame
                              such a silly issue

                              xtra: it is now doing it when i save a html file
                              it saves the file ok but the next time i open the html file debug.log appears giving the usual pointless info.

                                The errors in the debug logs mentioned here point to the following in the Chromium source:

                                Also, search Google, I see lots of programs can produce this log: https://www.google.com/search?q=registration_protocol_win.cc&oq=registration_protocol_win.cc

                                  I'd delete Opera's program files direction, download the Opera installer, and reinstall. Then, I'd go into Windows Defualt Programs/Apps settings nd reset Opera as the default browser. I'd do that by protocol/app and file type to make sure Opera has all its associations correct. Also, since Opera doesn't support swf files, I'd associate swf files with something else in windows (or clear it so it's not associated with anything).

                                  I'd also check Opera's launch.exe commands in the registry to make sure nothing has been added to them by malware. But, a resinstall of Opera might fix that.

                                  In Opera, I'd look in opera://settings/handlers to make sure the list is clear. Maybe disable extensions for a bit and test.

                                  registration_protocol_win.cc might not have anything to do with file associations and protocol associations, but I figured those are things to try since the debug logs get created when opening a file associated with Opera or via "open with". Just a guess.

                                    swf files are not assoc with opera
                                    just html and pdf

                                      It seems it is doing it with all files
                                      I right clicked to open a txt file and got a debug.log as well

                                      put chrome portable on to test it
                                      no debug.log

                                        What about Opera portable? If it doesn't do it there, that might mean the cause is in the Local State or Preferences file.

                                          Something to try:

                                          In Opera, press ctrl + shift + i to open the developer tools. Then, press F1 to goto the settings for the developer tools. Then, under "preferences", restore defaults.

                                            I noticed that on my computers Opera generates these files starting from version 57. I wrote about it some time ago. I even set up a new profile. Unfortunately these files are still being created.
