      I recently realized that there was a new option called "enable mouse gestures" and although I have it disabled it still works and it's very stressful, every time I make a miss click or just move the mouse the page goes back and I don't know what to do to stop this from happening, it's horrible and it even takes away the desire to continue using Opera
      How do I disable that?

        Disabling mouse gestures works fine for me. Holding down the right mouse button and dragging left/right no longer goes back and forward in history.

        If you're accidentally holding down the right mouse button and clicking the left, that will cause you to go back if you have the "Rocker Gestures" setting enabled. So, make sure that's off too.

        Besides that, I'd check your mouse settings to see if your mouse supports any gestures itself.
