<![CDATA[Adware.Swagbucks!GSRE notice when using Opera browser]]>Hello guys, anyone facing alt text this Adware.Swagbucks!GSRE notification? I have reported and download latest version released on 6 Aug 2026, but still have this pop up.

When I use Chrome, this notification didn't pop up.

It could be coming from one of your extensions at the URL opera://extensions. You can remove one, restart Opera, remove another, restart Opera etc. to see if it stops happening.

Do you get the notice if you run a test standalone installation of Opera?

Only when I open the opera browser, this warning pops up but not for Chrome and Microsoft Edge browser.

Confirm it's from Opera browser.

So, it's something that you downloaded or Opera downloaded automatically (due to some type of drive-by download or some extension you have installed). Something to investigate.

What was the filename for the file in the scoped_dir folder?
