@milowebastyczny I'm also having numerous issues. Using the Opera browser, some of my most frequently used sites are no longer functioning correctly. A few days ago, I began transitioning to Firefox.

@cynthiajg This issue appears to be resolved after Opera's new version was installed today. Thank you, Opera engineers.

@sgunhouse Thanks for writing back. Right. I'm only typing letters. The Opera shortcuts for zooming require a combination of keys that are not letters.

This is a bug. I've reported this issue through the Opera bug report wizard. Interestingly, while I was typing the bug report, the entire window zoomed in from 100% to 90%. That is a bug.

Reporting a bug: My Opera browser automatically zooms a page where I type. When playing a word game at Lumosity.com, the page zooms in multiple times. I have switched to a different browser until this is resolved. I never had this or any similar issues with any previous version of Opera.

Yes, I realized that any change in appearance on the speed dial page was probably unrelated to the UAC bug; I was simply pointing out that a change in appearance is a little clue that an Opera update was recently taken.

So I can find that developer build in Desktop Team Blog. I see! Mmmmm. A developer build can have several and/or serious issues. Thanks for the warning and for explaining where to find it. I'm just not that adventurous! Thanks to your explanations, I feel that the UAC bug is something I can live with for awhile. You've put my mind at ease.

Thank you leocg. Not being rude taking so long to reply, just sleeping. Thanks for your commitment to this forum.

Which version I'm using? Version 47.0.2631.39 (PGO), the same as solplassen. I did notice a change in colors on the speed dial page yesterday, so I assumed that the introduction of the UAC bug I originally pointed out happened with an update taken yesterday; I'd be more specific, but I see no indication of the date of the most recent update on the "About" page of the Opera browser.

Opera 48 developer build; I'm not sure how to find this. Usually I install whatever opera.com is currently offering, while enjoying the automatic updates.

I feel certain that this little bug will be sorted out in short order. Thank you for the discussion.

If the bug was the appearance of a UAC popup every time Opera is launched, then perhaps the bug wasn't fixed after all, as today is the first day I've ever seen it, and I use Opera every day. Hopefully the browser team gets word of this; it's a deal breaker for me.

Thank you for answering so quickly, leocg. But I'm somewhat of a dope. You're telling me that the UAC popup is normal? At least for now the popup is normal?

This started today. Each time I open the Opera browser on my Windows 7 computer, a message appears from "User Account Control", asking, "Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer?" The program indicated by user account control is Opera web browser. Answering "yes" or "no" results in the same -- Opera opens and functions normally. I've tried restarting my computer, but that had no effect. The message continues to appear.

Thanks very much, leocg. "Personal News", just underneath the Bookmarks heart. Indeed I like this better.

Greetings,
