      Is it really necessary that Opera asks the four privacy questions again with every update and that I have to check or uncheck them all? If I have told Opera once that I don't want these four things, then that should be accepted and kept as default for every update, unless I change it myself on the settings page.

        @andrew84: That means Opera 95 is our last usable version as my PC will still be running Windows 7 SP1 64-bit for quite some time.

          @ralf-brinkmann Here I wasn't asked about anything related to privacy.

            @papis44 I know, I meant future releases starting from 96.

              What happened to the tabstrip context menu between plus and magnifying glass?
              Is option 'close all double tabs' gone?

                Tinder web broke a while back. Works in Edge. I don't imagine it's any of my extensions. Can someone test it quickly please?

                https://tinder.com/

                If you see the "Catch us on the flip side" screen, that's broken. If you see a login screen or something like Tinder, that's working. Let me know please.

                    It is hidden. After starting the installation process and asking you for the installation folder a new window occurs "Help make opera better". You must press the "Configure in settings" button to see a new "Data collection" window.

                        @leocg, that's why I explicitly wrote it under my text.
                        Have a look in the settings page at "Privacy Consent Settings". There you can see, what you allow Opera to receive from you.

                          Disabling my extensions didn't help.

                          Neither did Ctrl-F5 and deleting cookies. I had to go into Settings and delete anything that looked like site data (only site-wide cookies via an extension for that).

                          By the way, it would be nice if Opera Developer at least had a function to easily load in a clean mode.

                          Thanks again, Leo.

                            You can do:

                            "C:\Program Files\Opera Developer\launcher.exe" --disable-extensions
                            

                            in a command prompt (or create a shortcut for the command) to start with extensions disabled for example.

                            You can do:

                            "C:\Program Files\Opera Developer\launcher.exe" "--user-data-dir=%userprofile%\Desktop\Opera Test"
                            

                            to load a fresh test profile.

                            You can mix the 2 as:

                            "C:\Program Files\Opera Developer\launcher.exe" --disable-extensions "--user-data-dir=%userprofile%\Desktop\Opera Test"

                                @aagaard, I can confirm this behaviour. I had 5 "crashes" in 2 days. "Crash" means that the screen faded, all tabs were hidden except the currently active one, and that Opera no longer responded to any action (with a corresponding error message). Ultimately, the only option was to forcefully close Opera.

                                  @aagaard we are currently investigating this issue. It seems to be caused by flag opera://flags/#ui-compositor-multithreaded you could try to disable it and see if it helps.

                                    Without extensions, I'm consistenly having a "Please wait" forever bug in low memory situations. Hitting the Back arrow is enough to cause it.

                                    Killing a whole bunch of threads is enough to bring Opera back to life (the state where every tab shows the "out of memory" screen).

                                      @davidgould if this is only for latest developer build and you are on Windows this could be related to opera://flags/#ui-compositor-multithreaded I mentioned before.

                                          @gmiazga, it seems to help here. I didn't have another crash or fade out within the last 15 hours.
