      @daria19 Most of the crashes in my case doesn't have an ID (Discarded=1). Only few have - this is one of those:
      CrashID=bp-662a4fc8-ecd1-499c-911b-936da0250105

        @Netergo Same here. I don't have a single crash with an ID.

          Problem persists in version Version: 116.0.5366.21.
          On my machine it crashes exactly every second time I inspect an element.

          This is a deal breaker, since I am a web developer and need this function all the time.

            Same issue here. When I inspect element it opens DevTools, but with DevTools opened when I click inspect again it crashes every time.
            When I close DevTools I can inspect again no problem.

              Have the same problem. 115.0.5322.119 and 116.0.5366.21 (after an update that didn't help). I am a web developer and have been using Opera for over 15 years. I'm used to it. But now it is completely unusable. I can't work. It's horrible.

                Same problem, I get it when:
                a. DevTools is already open
                b. I click the F12 key

                Browser closes and then reopens.

                    This bug is now making Opera unusable for development purposes.

                    I've now given up waiting for a patch and have reinstalled a December 2024 version of Opera instead, over the current version.

                    I went to this version: https://get.opera.com/ftp/pub/opera_gx/115.0.5322.113/win/

                    DevTools is now working OK.

                        @tomaustin Alas if I downgrade Opera, autoupdate kicks in and restores the latest version.
                        Frankly I don't understand why Opera cannot solve this problem, obviously it is a regression, the version where it started is well known, just have to look at version control.

                          @rumgezuzzl sadly, you're right. It worked for about 20-30 minutes, and then autoupdate (which one can't switch off) came along and ruined things.

                          Opera Devs -- is anyone there? Is anyone looking at this?

                                  @leocg still crashing on Today's stable 116 build. Time to move to some other browser... Recent versions are sooo buggy and UI-unbaked...

                                            Just updated form 115.0.5322.119 to 116.0.5366.35
                                            I have the same issue in both versions: Right click on any page to 'inspect' in an external DevTools window. 1st 'inspect' is ok. If I do a second 'inspect' while external DevTools window is open, Opera closes an reopens with blank page.

                                            If DevTools is not in an external window this bug doesn't appear.
