Opera stops responding very frequently

I’m having to post this from my phone because my opera is doing this weird thing where about every 10 seconds it switching to saying the program is not responding or to saying it is but it’s still just frozen. My opera has been slowly getting worse as in recently I’ve been having a problem where if I left a tab open for long enough it would start taking minutes for a action to get through but the moment I refreshed the page it would work normally again. And before that opera suddenly become really slow but after closing a lot of tabs that fixed that but I think something in my opera broke then and is just getting worse. At this point I’m going to have to reinstall opera just to see if that works but I don’t know how that’ll work with my workspaces.

My opera is physically unable to do anything, including that right now. I’d have to use task manager to even close it.

@mike2931 Try with a new clean profile directory.

Go to %appdata%, access the Opera Software folder and rename the Opera Stable directory to Opera Stable Old

Then reopen Opera.
