@Xss75 Since clearing the cache didn't help, try turning hardware acceleration off, restarting Opera, and testing the pointer again. Sometimes GPU drivers cause stuttering rather than fix it. If there's no difference, test with extensions disabled and check Task Manager to see whether Opera is using unusually high CPU or memory.

RE: Opera sometimes loses keyboard focus while browsingOpera for computers
@jamessmith1 I'd test with extensions disabled first and see if it still happens. If it does, try a clean Opera profile. Since it's happening across multiple sites, I'd suspect an extension or Opera bug rather than the websites themselves.

RE: Browser automatically changes the default searchOpera for Windows
@anonimus1337 Check opera://extensions and disable anything you don't recognize, then set Google again at opera://settings/searchEngines. If it keeps switching back after restarting, I'd check for unwanted software or a regional configuration issue before reinstalling Opera.

RE: website fogot me after the new upd (update)Opera for Windows
@NatureWithGreenWorld said in website fogot me after the new upd (update):
opera fogot website data but not opera data
This sounds like Opera is clearing your cookies or site data after the update. Go to Settings → Privacy & security → Delete browsing data → On exit and make sure cookies and other site data aren't selected for deletion. Also check opera://settings/content/siteData and make sure sites are allowed to save data on your device. If it keeps happening with YouTube, check whether any extensions or privacy tools are clearing Google's cookies.

RE: No connection in OperaOpera for Windows
I'd check whether Opera's VPN or proxy is enabled first, then try opening a private window to see if the connection works there. If it still doesn't work, disable your extensions temporarily and check whether Opera is allowed through Windows Firewall. Since other browsers connect fine, the problem is probably specific to Opera rather than your internet connection.

RE: Mouse sometimes glitch only when Opera is openedOpera for Windows
@ali91 That sounds like an Opera GPU or hardware acceleration issue, especially since it only happens while Opera is open. I’d try turning off hardware acceleration in Opera and restarting it to see if the mouse stops glitching. If that fixes it, it’s probably worth checking the GPU driver too.

RE: Opera extension page takes me to chrome web storeOpera add-ons
@ghassanopera You may want to check the Cold Turkey installation page directly rather than searching the Opera add-ons store. Cold Turkey uses a specific Opera extension, and it may not appear in the normal Opera add-ons search because it is an unlisted extension.
Try this:
Go to the official Cold Turkey Opera extension page.
Install the Opera version from there, not the Chrome Web Store version.
After installing, open Opera and go to:
opera://extensions
Make sure Cold Turkey is enabled and has the required permissions (especially site access).Opera can run many Chrome Web Store extensions with the proper add-on installed, but some extensions have separate Opera versions because they depend on browser-specific behavior.
If it still doesn't detect the extension, I'd reinstall the Cold Turkey desktop app as well, since the browser extension and the app need to communicate with each other.

RE: Lost access to 2FA authenticator and backup codesOpera account
If you no longer have access to the authenticator app and don't have the backup codes, the usual 2FA recovery options are limited. Having access to the email and Google account helps prove ownership, but it may not bypass the 2FA requirement.
I'd first check if the old authenticator account can be restored from a backup (some authenticator apps support cloud sync). Also check if you are still logged in to Opera on any other device, since you may be able to access account settings from there and update your security options.
If neither option works, your best bet is to contact Opera support through the official channels and explain the situation. Avoid posting your email or account details publicly on the forum. Only provide account information through a verified support request.

RE: inconsistent tab placement in vertical tabs since the relocation of the new tab buttonTab Islands, Tabs and Workspaces
Yeah, I can see why that’d be confusing. If the new-tab button puts tabs at the top, I’d expect tabs opened from links to follow the same rule. Having them open in different directions depending on how they were created feels unnecessarily inconsistent.

RE: GX Mod Store: "Mod type restricted" with splash_screenOpera GX
Looks like a Store-side restriction rather than a problem with the MP4. Someone else has reported the same error with splash screens and other mod features under Schema v2. I'd ask the GX team whether those features need approval before publishing. If it works unpacked and uploads once you remove splash_screen, I'd wait for confirmation before spending more time rewriting the manifest
