      @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.

          @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.

                                      @davidgould: I can confirm. I had to close my browser at least 20 time in last three days for the same issue.

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

                                            I've seen this reported already, but the "Open in workspace" menu is still shown in speed dial entries even if the workspaces feature is disabled. Not the end of the world but it would be more polished if the option was hidden.
