        Actually is just to break/reset the lock size.

              No, it doesnt works.

              open opera drag the window all the way to top of screen.. it will maximize automatically.. or (maximize the window by clicking the square icon in the upper-right corner) Then, press and hold the Ctrl key and close the Browser. Re-open Browser.. Tadaa lol

                @Operes Your Opera installation may be broken, try reinstalling with a new Opera profile.

                          You can try to choose it from the Operating System settings.

                            @Operes i know, opera when maximized then close should remember but it doesn't lol

                            even if ya Open Opera's Preferences file with a text editor and find the following segment -

                            "browser": {
                            "maximized": true,

                            "maximized": true, a lot of times "maximized" is set to false.

                            my way works and easy lol

                            if ya can;t set it in opera's setting then do like zalex108 says to set browser to default in windows settings

                            if ya have windows 10 - check this page out..

                                its fail proof lol unless you you closed browser at a different size from Maximize..

                                if so you would need to do this again

                                open opera drag the window all the way to top of screen.. it will maximize automatically.. or (maximize the window by clicking the square icon in the upper-right corner) Then, press and hold the Ctrl key and close the Browser using the X button upper right corner while its maximized..

                                n e ways i give up..
