      I think this issue started either today or yesterday. Every time I try to quit Opera, it reopens and displays the message 'Opera has recovered from a crash.' I need to quit Opera once more to finally get it to shut down.

      I'm not sure what the reason for this behavior is. I don't have any extensions installed other than uBlock Origin. I've tried removing and reinstalling the app, but it hasn't resolved the issue.

            I'm having the same issue. Opera keeps reopening. This needs to be fixed right away.

            Reinstalling does not fix the issue.

              Also seeing the restart issue, but it started right after I updated to the new MacOS 14.

                It's happening here for the past week on MacOs High Sierra. Impossible to quit Opera without it immediately auto-relaunching. I get far too many Opera updates but this bug goes unfixed.

                If it's not fixed by next week I obviously can't use Opera again.

                    @pillsbur Same. Happened immediately after updating to 14.0 Sonoma.

                        @schroder Bloody annoying. This should not happen.We need to get this fixed.They are trying to be too smart with new options.I have never had a problem with Opera before .I'll have to default to Firefox unless it's settled. Wait until next upgrade.

                            @serola Opera repeatedly reopening with a crash message might be due to a corrupted profile or extensions. To resolve it, clear the cache, disable extensions like uBlock Origin temporarily, or create a new user profile in Opera. If the issue persists, seek help from Opera's support or community forums.

                              @lily11 Thx for suggestions. After following your advice I get this marketing message-
                              Opera has recovered from a crash
                              We've just recovered from a crash, but to do it we had to disable your extensions. You can try to enable them again in the extensions manager. Sorry!

                                  I'm also getting the same problem on macOS 14 Sonoma. Going to use back Firefox unless it is settled. Too annoying to use the Opera One now.

                                    @pootytang Annoying because it is an excellent browser. First problem in 4 yrs and it's as basic as not quitting.

                                      Having the same re-opening issue. Just updated again thinking an update would fix, nope, same issue persists.

                                          Can anyone tell me the most recent version of Mac Opera which doesn't have this bug - and how to then stop Opera auto-updates?

                                            @chappie12345 And all the kind people who have written about this.
                                            I downloaded the Developer Version and it kept freezing and a force quit required.That's it for me.at least until it is fixed.I am using Firefox and it works well.
                                            Please report on this issue, I will check to see what has happened,Safari and Firefox in the locker.Opera taken off for now.
