      Good afternoon. There is a problem. When you start the browser in full screen mode and then minimize it by the button to windowed mode, then this button seems to become inactive and it is not possible to expand it. If using the standard operating system tools to expand the window to full screen, then the button can again minimize it to the window. And in the same way, if you start the browser initially in the window, you can expand it, but it doesn’t let you collapse it. And the second wish - can the close button be made again to the very corner? Previously, it was customary - drove the mouse pointer to the upper right corner and closed the browser window, but now you have to hit the button (in other browsers, the close button reaches the very corner of the screen). THX

        @krliman1981 Exactly the same thing happens to me with the maximize button and the close button, which they removed from the corner completely. I hope they solve this problem and also the opera intro problem

          Thanks for the answer. Well, if the moderator raised and resolved the topic, then let's hope that one of the developers will look here. Because earlier, mechanically, the hand itself with the mouse led the cursor to the upper right corner, a click - and the window closed. And now you are trying to point and hit the button. And you need to expand-collapse very often, for example, when laying out websites for adaptive design.

            By the way, I recorded a short video of how it happens. First click on the minimize/expand button, nothing happens, then click on the button to close the window, the balloon pops up, that the tabs are open, you want to close them all. And then, by the outline of the button, you can see that there are borders, on top and on the right, nothing by clicking on them. There is a second window open from below, if there were no borders, I would click on the second window and make it active ..

              @krliman1981 Well, I want to add more .. such a good feedback turned out .. all this does not work only in Windows 11. In Windows 10 everything works fine. I found an article on the net that you can try to play around with system borders - I changed the PaddedBorderWidth key from "-60" to "0" - it did not help. I returned it and am waiting for a solution. THX

                This also started for me on the last update (102.0.4880.29), That's also the version that obliterated all of my info. bookmarks, open tabs, history, everything. I just started over. But now I have to deal with the inability to maximize the window. I'm using Windows 10.

                  I suspect it's probably environment / OS related issue.

                  Running Opera One 102.0.4880.33 on openSuse Tumbleweed and have not experienced this issue.

                    Good day. As far as I can see and understand - this is a topic for the problems of the Opera browser under Windows. Maybe under all Linux systems everything will be fine, but I would like it to be fine under Windows systems as well.

                      Yea, that was my point, and a sort of confirmation ...

                      It's obviously broken on the Windows side 👍

                        @krliman1981 the first issue is happening for me as well on version 102.0.4880.33.
                        I've seen a couple of posts on this now, and still don't know how to solve it. I'm on Windows 11. I even tried going on the Opera One Beta and it still had the same issue.

                          My apologies, I just checked both the Beta and the Developer streams and they both have the issue fixed.
                          For reference, here are the versions of each stream (for me at least):
                          Opera One: 102.0.4880.33
                          Opera One Beta: 102.0.4880.10
                          Opera One Developer: 103.0.4906.0

                            @viridisrex They didn't fix anything. I may not know about the Beta version, but in the Developer version everything is the same - the borders are too big, the button does not reach the corner. Especially here I put the 103 version next to it. Well, let's wait - the last 103 came out earlier than the final 102 ..

                              @krliman1981 Opera should look into this and hope they fix it with the next update.

                                    @hari24 Well, if one of the developers looks at it and gives a comment, then we can hope.

                                      @emeterio35 I'm sorry, but what problem are you talking about now that it's been fixed? For the buttons to increase / decrease the size of the window, or for the fact that there are borders behind the button for closing the window (this problem was described by me under number two) ..
