        @marleycat Seems to be working now. I ran AVG tune up, then deleted opera, then downloaded opera all appears to be well at this time.

          I had the same(ish) issue too. But in my case it seems to be related to n external monitor that wasn't connected anymore. Yesterday I worked with an external monitor and just put the laptop in standby.
          Today I was away and initially everything was working fine. The windows I had open, were all on the laptop screen. However, when opening a new Opera window, I could not see it. Only the thumbnail on the taskbar was there.
          After restarting opera and restarting the laptop, things were still the same.
          Changing display settings to pc-only didn't help either.

          Finally back at home I connected the monitor again and there was my Opera window.

          Unfortunately this won't help the people in this thread who don't use / never used a second screen.

                      @flash5099 Did you try exiting full screen?

                        @leocg No emoji has the mouth widely enough open to display my amazement at the simplicity of the solution you just provided. Just a reminder of the keys to press for entering/exiting full screen:

                        1. Alt+space bar
                        2. X

                              @flash5099 And if you press F11 and go full screen, you can see it?

                              Can you also see the content when you hover the mouse in the Taskbar?

                                  @leocg so my issue was different. Mine was that I could see the Opera button in the start bar, and the thumbnail when I pointed at it, but I clicked on it and it would not pull up. I was able to see every window but Opera. So I re-enlarged the window with the keyboard, as I thought you were suggesting, and it came back on.

                                        I have been using this browser for a long time and this is the first time I have encountered such a problem.

                                        the application opens and I can write, but nothing is visible on the screen.

                                        The problem persists even though I turn the computer off and on and delete and install the browser.

                                        suggested deleting data in previous forums but I can't do it.

                                        sorry for my english I would be very happy if you help^^

                                            from doing all these it's much easier to just delete everything(also there is a box in opera uninstaller to delete everything) and install the opera again 🙂
