[Solved][Duplicated]Tabs randomly move to the right

I noticed strange thing after update to Opera 96.0.4693.20. When I select one of opened tads by clicking on it, the tab moves some positions to the right. For example, if I choose fifth tab, it becomes sixth or seventh. I suppose that this happens when the large amount of tabs (in my case nearly 50) is opened.

@nerverean I tried to open my tabs in different window but it all the same. At this point it's just easier to use other browser until it fixed.

Unable to work with tabs.
Someone deployed on Friday? -

Hi, I have such a problem, Opera mixes tabs. This happens when you click on a given tab.
How to solve it?

This is frustrating. You had one job. Now you rendered my favorite browser inoperable.

Please fix this issue quickly. It's very annoying and laborious to use this software right now with this bug.

found a temporary solution
go to opera folder
c:\Program Files (x86)\Opera
and copy the contents of the previous stable version
in a folder with a new
For example copy from 95.0.4635 to 96.0.4693 -

@leocg I can't find the original thread for this, but I also hope this gets fixed/reverted in the next release, as it is extremely annoying.
What is happening: Clicking on an inactive tab both activates it an instantly starts dragging it, and if the previously active tab is to the left, it collapses and instantly pulls all other tabs with it. If the use has enough tabs open, this causes a shift. The volume icon also has an effect on this, as it makes those tabs fluctuate more in width.

@burnout426 Thanks for the rollback link. I chose the 'copy' method vs the uninstall / reinstall. I just killed the Opera process in Task Mgr, copied the '96.' rev to a new folder, deleted the contents of the 96 folder, copied the contents of the '95' rev into the 96, starting Opera and no more randomly sliding tab bullshit!

If window has many tabs, then not active tabs are smaller then active tab. And when you change active tab to another, old tab becomes small, and new active tab becomes wide.
Today I upgraded opera, and it became so that when I click on a tab, it looks like it instantly switches to drag and drop mode so if old tab is placed somewhere on the left from new active tab, then because of changing sizes of tabs, the active tab moves a few tabs to the right.
Steps to reproduce:- Open 200 tabs
- Select the most left tab
- Then click on the tab to the right
Expected behavior: the last clicked tab did not change position relative to other tabs
Actual behavior: the last clicked tab changed position relative to other tabs and moved several tabs to the right (depends of small tabs size)
I didn't upgrade Opera for more than 30 days, and in previous version there was no such problem. This is reproduced and with tabs scrolling enabled and with tab scrolling disabled.
Version of Opera: 96.0.4693.31
Version of Windows: Windows 10 Home 21H2 build 19044.2130

Having the same issue. Tabs jumping right if I click on them. Rarely happens when using keyboard shortcuts to move between tabs.
Can't do the rollback method though because Opera becomes painly slow and memory exhaustive when an update is pending -- no doubt intentional. Windows 10 4K video editing rig. Kill the process or apply the update and the browser is snappy again, same tabs before and after (I reload them all because I use them all).
So, need a fix for this tab-jumping BS. Kind of an embarrassing bug to introduce in 2023 to a stable browser. Especially if it was reported in dev as one poster said.

Just updated after my last reply, and the tab problem still exists.
