Thanks for finally notice and inform us, but is it really 100% solved? I don't see the big drop down main extension update message, but the small red dot in the sidebar is still there. Does not help try use the update option in the developer mode in extensions. Restart the browser or also try manually update the browser does not help.

I got this message once. I clicked the link to Extensions, and looked around. I couldn't find anything to update, so I just ignored it. It hasn't come back. Though I think I'm missing one - the Avira antivirus extension.

@pkudla "A fix has already been released" - How? There is no update for Opera.

@fdauti Actually there are. By my count here it is Opera 15, Vivaldi 6, Brave 3. Pick your poison.

Actually I see 5 on Vivaldi and they look pretty normal,

Chrome Media Router
Chromium PDF Viewer
CryptoTokenExtension
Google Hangouts
Vivaldi Picture-In-Picture

But I'm not surprised Brave uses even less

@merijn2 im right there with you, /i dont know what this means i...I click the big red O and Opera opens. why doesnt OPERA just fix it themselves, I shouldnt have to "work around " anything. I say a post that said they did fix it ...well no they have not fixed it.
