@lindencoll The option to disable tab snoozing seems to not be working.
For now try going to opera://discards and un-check the option for auto discardable for the tabs.

Sadly, it didn't work - everything still freezes.
I notice it says chrome://discards/, in fact the chrome:// prefix can be substituted for opera - chrome://flags etc
Looking like I'll have to enable retain tabs and remember to shut down before taking any breaks.

A logical conclusion,EspeciaIly as I just checked Chromium Ungoogled discards which has auto tab discarding enabled and doesn't freeze.
Opera is lighter and faster on my system though, hence my looking for options to rectify this freezing.

But, one last try in this vein (which could also be useful in other ways)
I decided to check up on Chrome instead of Opera.
"The new solution to current tabs freezing during idle or sleep is to change the Chrome flag for occlusion from Default to Disabled. Hopefully that helps anyone else having this issue."
Opera has the same flag.

Only solution thus far is to remember to close Opera when I take a break from the pc, or brave the garish darkness of GX.
Mouse movers don't prevent the big freeze.

@sgunhouse said in Opera completely freezes itself and a windows 7:
@lindencoll Sounds like the computer may be trying to go to sleep, but something is preventing it from doing so properly.
Finally sussed it.
I got fed up and after disabling both sleep and hibernation it doesn't freeze itself or the system.
Not too clever a solution tho'.
