<p dir="auto">I’m using Opera on Windows and recently noticed that the keyboard focus sometimes moves away from the webpage and back to the address bar while I’m browsing.</p>
<p dir="auto">For example, when I’m typing or using keyboard shortcuts on a website, the address bar occasionally becomes active unexpectedly. It doesn’t happen every time, but it can be quite annoying when it occurs.</p>
<p dir="auto">I’ve noticed it on more than one website, so I’m wondering if anyone else has experienced something similar.</p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>OS:</strong> Windows 11</p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>Steps to reproduce:</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>Open Opera and visit a website.</li>
<li>Use the keyboard to interact with the page.</li>
<li>Continue browsing or typing for a while.</li>
<li>Check whether the address bar unexpectedly receives focus.</li>
</ol>
<p dir="auto"><strong>Expected behavior:</strong> Keyboard focus should remain where I am using it on the webpage.</p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>Actual behavior:</strong> Focus sometimes moves to the address bar without intentionally clicking it.</p>
<p dir="auto">Has anyone else noticed this issue, or found a possible cause?</p>
