@burnout426 yeah, thanks. I already did roll back to an older version. Will wait for updates from Opera.

@burnout426 after going back to previous version, after every launch, I'm getting "Splash screen".

I disabled it in settings, tried editing Preferences file with JSON editor in the profile directory, I set root/gx/splash_screen to False. Saved the file. Tried removing that node and then setting to False again after browser restart and changing the setting to OFF inside browser settings.

This happens with autoupdating disabled and enabled. Tried reinstalling and removing browser installation folder when doing so. Also tried 93.0.4585.78 and let it autoupdate to 93.0.4585.84, this doesn't fix it.
Only resetting the profile to default fixes it, but I unfortunately cannot afford to reset the browser to a default state, I have too many things to revert if I do so.

@burnout426 the problematic corrupted file was "Local State" inside profile folder, removing it (make sure you make a backup or you will lose login sessions and other data like passwords), fixed the Splash screen bug, now I'm trying to see if I can compare the corrupted and a new file to find the issue

Confirm. 'Imagus' and 'Enhancer for YouTube' stopped working.

@burnout426 I identified the faulty node inside "Local State" file
node "root\last_version" was set to:
[0]: 94
[ 1:] 0
[2]: 4606
[3]: 64
[4]: 0

so I edited values to be in line with an installed version, which are:
[0]: 93
[ 1]: 0
[2]: 4585
[3]: 84
[4]: 0

after saving, launching the browser caused to display the tab saying, that browser is updated, another restart and now the Splash screen bug is completely gone

94.0.4606.69 should fix the issue. Available for Windows now and Mac later.

Can confirm that almost all extensions work except Google Translate.
Hope it will be fixed soon too

@albert-off There are a few different Google Translate extensions. Link to specific one?

@albert-off Seems to be working fine for me in 94.0.4606.69. Try uninstalling and reinstalling the extension.

@burnout426 Strange, I deleted the browser and reinstalled it but it still doesn't work for me(
found an alternative extension

@albert-off What wasn't working exactly? When selecting text, the translate icon from the extension was showing fine for me and clicking it would translate the text. And, clicking the extension's icon on the address bar and clicking "translate this page" worked fine.

@schmidt-98 Make sure you have the latest version of GX - there was a bug in last week's version but they released an update to fix it.

Extensions are working except for search engine sites like Bing, Google, DuckDuckGo etc...

I am updated to the latest version.

@popd Did you allow extensions to work on search engines pages?

@leocg As it just so happens (as it Always does), about 5 minutes after my post, I figured out that option exists. Lol. Thank you for the reply though.
