Hi, I guess all my cookies/info deleted is part of it..?
and why is opera://flags/#enable-surfaces-for-videos removed..?

I like the "workspaces" idea but it is kinda useless as it is only good for one session at a time. If you close the browser and reopen it all work spaces are gone. I am not sure how others use their browser but I do not keep mine open 24/7.
Thanks

Hi @freelanceartist,
Regarding "cookies", do you use synchronization, perhaps an issue in it is the culprit, or there's other problem in your case that causing it?
Can you elaborate more on that, what's lost exactly?On removing of the flag: I was told, that Opera switched to use the Chromium's video pop-out, and is in the process of implementing/backporting some of its features.

@l33t4opera No, I haven't changed anything in my settings, I got signed out of everything, and all the the reminder alerts came back, not sure why, my cookies still seem to be there, but everything just reset, I suppose.
And well that's great! maybe my suggestion thread was made for nothing (https://forums.opera.com/topic/38673/suggestions-for-the-new-pip-or-video-pop-out?_=1582933976302), but I guess it'll serve as a reminder of how great the old PiP was.
I hope they also return the motion animations for the play/pause, next and mute buttons from the old PiP, they were great!

@freelanceartist Flags are experiments and have a limited life time. Once the experiment ends, the flag is removed.

@freelanceartist I asked if you use Opera's sync service, because you wrote above "all my cookies/info deleted", and it looked like an issue with sync could cause that.
Which alerts do you mean? What exactly has been reset? Do you need any help with that?Regarding the PiP feature, it's as I wrote above, it has nothing to do with removing any flags or not.

@l33t4opera If you mean by "synchronizing service" Flow, no I don't use that, I do save cookies and all the tabs when I close my browser.
Everything was working fine until I updated to 67.
- YouTube went back to the new layout
- had to sign back in, in ever website
- as well as a bunch of policy update statements that I've accepted in the past.
I even downgraded to 66 and seems like whatever caused it, it seems to be permanent.

@freelanceartist Nope, I mean the sync service, which you can find under Settings > Synchronization > Synchronize browsing data with Opera account.
It's strange, but it looks like you lost some stored settings in your Opera's profile (including this cookies and session data).
Are you sure, that you updated correct (currently used) Opera's installation?
It seems, that you rather performed a clean installation in another folder, unless the current profile has been really reset for some unknown reasons. -

@freelanceartist Probably your profile directory or part of it was recreated.

@l33t4opera I just restarted my browser as I always do, nothing different.
What's odd is the cookies are still there, it also kept the cookies I blocked.The synchronization is untouched.

@freelanceartist One more idea on that, what would happen in your case: maybe it crashed during the update, which caused partial resetting (corruption) of your profile, and it didn't write all changes on time before it happened.
But such issues seems to be rare (I experience it myself during updating not so many times so far).It might be already too late for that, but you can check if replacing the "Current Session" and "Current Tabs" with accordingly "Last Session" and Last Tabs" changes something.
Also, you can try to overwrite the "Preferences" file with "Preferences.backup", and see if that restores some of your custom settings. -

@l33t4opera I've already adapted to it, I'll just go by it being too late, thanks for the help though!
and thanks for the info on the PiP getting worked on still.
