Everyday I get emails from google saying that it has detected a suspicious app on my windows device and it logs me out, it's really annoying and it started doing so for a full week now. Any ideas? Does it happen to anyone else? I've uninstalled the browser and reinstalled it with clean registry and everything, still happening. This never happened with normal Opera.

@t3u7zu94 When exactly Google does that? What exactly the message says?

@leocg The email I get is the exact same and it says the following:
Critical security alert (in the subject of the email)
Suspicious activiti in your account.
Someone might have accessed your Google Account using harmful malware on one of your devices. You’ve been signed out on that device for your protection.

After which I get logged out of all my devices.
It hasn't happened yet since yesterday when I posted the thread but it happened everyday since last tuesday.

@t3u7zu94 Did you access your Google account in Opera just before getting that message?

Are you using VPN?

@leocg Yes, before and after. I don't use VPNs I have no need for them (so far).

@t3u7zu94 I guess you need to report the issue to Google, so that they can fix it by removing Opera from the list of suspicious softwares.

@leocg Thanks, I was thinking about reporting this to them but first I had to talk here to see if anyone else had this happen.
