Operating System: Windows 11 64-bit<br />
Tried Fixes: Set Nvidia as default processor for opera.exe in the Nvidia control panel... Set opera.exe to "High Performance" in windows graphic settings... Disabled battery saver<br />
Built-in Adblocker Status: ON<br />
Built-in VPN Status: OFF<br />
GX Limiter Statuses: All OFF<br />
Additional Information (if any): When checked in the task manager... Only the CPU seems to be in use and GPU usage is 0%.... Hardware acceleration is enabled.<img src="/assets/uploads/files/1699546284247-52508e9c-cabc-4817-a8eb-676823dcd75b-image.png" alt="52508e9c-cabc-4817-a8eb-676823dcd75b-image.png" class=" img-responsive img-markdown" /></p>
