            @daddyvoid i just followed kopollo's instruction in resetting the browser. here's what they said:
            Reset Opera settings: Resetting Opera to its default settings can help eliminate any problematic configurations. To reset Opera, go to the menu, select "Settings," scroll down to the bottom, click on "Advanced," and select "Browser" from the left-hand side. Scroll down to find the "Reset settings" button and click on it.

                  @leocg yes I have now disabled all extentions and still figuring out which one is causing it. Definitely an extention for me. Thing is I haven't installed new extentions for months so I think one of them updated with a malware.

                    FOUND THE SOLUTION/CAUSE

                    For me its this app which triggered random linkedin pop ups which are instantly closing :

                    Find website used fonts
                    https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/find-website-used-fonts/lnebjgioddkafaldaaeooeghlcholnnp

                    I just deactivated every extension I have in opera, and reactivated extensions one by one in 2-5mins intervalls.

                    I got this extension through operas official Install Chrome Extensions

                    If you have this extension, you should delete it and after that it will not happen again. But if it's still happening, or you dont even have it installed, you should deactivate every extension and reactivate them one by one.

                    If its another extension which is causing this, please tell us which one it is.

                      find the suspect and other user confirm this extension is malware when i want uninstall and check when this extension update.
