      @Swollward same! Mad! Thanks for reporting. I run 72.0.3815.207 Windows 10. Bug seems across other machines too, possible earlier version. I only noticed now, was almost a week on vacation not using Opera that much. Picture: https://imgur.com/Y8AeeXE
      Hope this gets fixed soon, KR

            @eettcc The non-responsive glitch has returned today. Also, the prediction service still won't turn off.

              Solved! Thank you Opera!!! You are the absolute tits! I wish voice search worked but you're still the best and my heart saddens to know that most humans don't use you and have such an orgasmicly true browsing experience ♥

                      Got the same problem. Just updated to Version:72.0.3815.207, the problem is still there. What I do is to hilite the web address I typed in then copy and then right-click and Paste and search and it goes through.

                                        @treego Instead of simply "it works on my side" can you point out for the stable version - we can somehow revert then.
