      @silverdesertrain Yes, I'm sure. I have about double that many tabs open across four windows currently and 96.0.4693.50 isn't doing the annoying random moving of tabs any more. My previous 'fix' to the problem was the suggestion by another on this thread of copying the contents of a previous working build into the folder of the broken build and that worked fine. A lot less painful than the reset and restore you went through.

        @silverdesertrain 50 fixed it. 124 is nothing. Not counting all these tabs, but 124 doesn't cover two workspaces for me (I have 6 workspaces total). .50 fixed it. Haven't had one tab jump since I posted about that update.

          Ok, thanks for your kind replies. I will check it out. Although I am still a bit suspicious...

            Not even half my current and daily tab load. Go for it.

                @silverdesertrain current version 96.0.4693.50 released on 8th of march have fixed tabs bug.

                I can confirm that it is fixed now. Tried to Google the issue 1-2 times over the last 2 weeks but it was just yet i found the way in here to read that it was a Opera bug. That one was driving me crazy xD

                  120 tabs, after the March 8 patch, I didn’t seem to notice this bug again, it’s good!

                    My tabs still keep jumping even though I have the latest update and Opera's check for updates function says that my browser is up to date (not using English language settings though). Please fix this issue for every computer. I have Windows 10 Pro 21H2 19044.2604 Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.4190.0, 64-bit operating system x64-based processor. Tried reinstalling the software, didn't help. Please don't drop the repair procedure yet, keep trying to fix this for everyone. I really like this browser but this tab jumping makes it very laborious, annoying and time-consuming to use. I would like to continue using this browser, but if this tab jumping keeps occuring constantly I simply can't continue using it in the long run. Please send this notice somewhere and keep up your efforts.

                            did you mean .59 or .50 instead? And, if so, which one?

                              No, it says 96.0.4693.58 and that's a fact what's on my screen when going to opera://about/

                                @heksa Strange. I don't see that build number on the download ftp servers anywhere, and the https://www.opera.com/download page is not serving me that build number. And, Opera isn't showing that build for an update.

                                I would download the Opera installer, goto the URL opera://about, take note of the "install" path, close Opera, uninstall Opera (don't choose to delete your data when uninstalling), delete the install folder, launch the new Opera installer, click "options", uncheck "import data from default browser", adjust the other options as you like, and install.

                                Then, I would make sure you have 96.0.4693.59 for Opera GX or 96.0.4693.50 for regular Opera.

                                  I will do that. But the one that I have now, saying it is 96.0.4693.58, was definitely downloaded from your servers.

                                    I reinstalled the software as you instructed, now it says it is 96.0.4693.50.
                                    Preliminary, no tab jumping in this. I will continue using and testing this.

                                      @heksa Okay. Sounds good. Maybe Opera put a build up and pulled it down where you got it before it was pulled. Not sure.

                                        One strange thing that happened at least twice, was that when I opened the opera://update/ page when I wanted to download and install the latest version via that fucntion, some separate autonomic background update fetching software that probably is started at the same time when I open my computer, intervened, and it seemed to hijack the process when opera://update/ page said that it finished downloading the new version, just before I got to the restart the browser message and button in that opera://update/ screen, this other process ran by that separate autonomic background software did the update before that and overrode the process in the opera://update/ page, or so it seemed. It didn't look normal, when remembering how the process normally looks when using the opera://update/ page.

                                          But I must add to this, that I have Norton 360 (full version) and IObit Malware Fighter, AdwCleaner and SUPERAntiSpyware (free versions) on my computer, and I have updated and used those constantly, so it's unlikely that I would have viruses, trojans or something like that on my computer. And when I downloaded the OperaSetup from here: https://www.opera.com/download
                                          some days ago and reinstalled it then, it likewise said that I had Opera 96.0.4693.58. But when I uninstalled the software couple of hours ago, downloaded the OperaSetup again and reinstalled it as instructed, it now says it is 96.0.4693.50 and seems to work normally now.

                                            If it has a software updater feature that can check and update programs for you, I would turn it off or at least exclude Opera from it if possible. Things can sometimes go wrong when something else updates Opera for you.
