      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:

        • https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/third_party/crashpad/crashpad/util/win/registration_protocol_win.cc?rcl=8abe57876a86cf492b1db84b07fe7e5544be42bb&l=84

        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

            debug.log contents

            [1227/221254.004:ERROR:registration_protocol_win.cc(84)] TransactNamedPipe: The pipe has been ended. (0x6D)

              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.

                      my regular installed opera is now not making debug.log as well, as if somehow running the portable fixed it ?

                          Did you try a complete uninstall and a reinstall of Opera?

                            I know it can happen with more than just pdf files, but under opera://settings/content/pdfDocuments, is "Download PDF files instead of automatically opening them in Opera" enabled or disabled?

                              @Ceedee Are you still only experiencing the issue when Chromecast support is enabled?

                                Goto the URL opera://settings/userInterface. Do you have "Enable Chromecast support" listed there? If so and it's enabled, does disabling it help at all for you?

                                  It would appear that was a red-herring
                                  just a coincidence it happens it seems if i associate files to open with opera

                                  i repeated what i did before

                                  associated html, pdf etc with portable opera
                                  ran portable
                                  and now once again installed opera doesnt make debug.logs

                                  makes no sense but will see how it goes

                                  I am reluctant to delete profiles or uninstall etc
                                  as it works ok unless i open it from a saved html or pdf or swf file etc

                                    Disabling "Enable Chromecast support" definitely does not help. The problem with "debug.log" continues. Even in the latest version (57.0.3098.110).

                                        As is says in the title. It says something like this in it:

                                        [0108/201123.061:ERROR:registration_protocol_win.cc(84)] TransactNamedPipe: The pipe has been ended. (0x6D)

                                        [Mod note: Merged with this topic because the issue is basically the same]
