@seriousgigi I have the exacly same problem over the past 1-2 weeks. Both in Opera GX and in classic Opera, after mistakenly pressing F6 (I didn't even know there was a shortcut like that) it crashed the browser every single time. The last time it also removed all of my pinned tabs, and I was not able to get them back (normally opening last closed tabs recovered the old window with pinned ones)
I also disabled the shortcut in settings - but that's not a fix, that's just a way to avoid pressing a button by accident. Please do something about it.
The F6 shortcut is pretty useless (I guess 1% of users might use "focus next pane" but I doubt even that) but it's conveniently located next to F5 which a lot of people use.Having a crash instead of a refresh can cause all sorts of trouble, mostly when you are on an eshop, on a payment gate and stuff like that...

@seriousgigi Just came here to say the same thing, since I thought it was an extension I was using breaking the browser when I accidentally press F6. I've used Opera for quite a few years and I never remember it crashing abruptly, and I've probably pressed F6 on accident a few times I would've thought so I'm not sure if this was a recent thing. But would definitely like a way to disable it.
