[Solved]You tube "Skip" button no showing

I have recently moved to Opera and loving the experience up until I started to watch YouTube videos. On all other browsers, you can see a "Skip" "button" available which enables the user to skip over advertisements after a few seconds. Unfortunatley I don't see this on Opera. Do I have a setting wrong or is this s bug in Opera?

@harrisonpf It used to show up in Opera too. Need to check if it's still the case.

@leocg This is from Safari.

@harrisonpf And what about the links, so people can check it?

I cannot send a link as this happens on EVERY video I watch in YouTube. I commercials come up in YouTube then I am forced to watching the entire commercial and have no way to Skip it. The previous screenshots just show that the Skip button comes in Safari but not in Opera

@harrisonpf It's working here. Did you check with extensions disabled? Did you try resetting your settings? What about a clean profile?

@leocg I have found the problem!! I have Avira Browsersecurity enabled. When this is enabled the skip is not there, if I disable the plugin, then I see the skip button as it should be there. Not sure who the problem should be assigned to now!!

@harrisonpf Avira is causing it, so they need to fix it.
