EMOLLER, thanks for the reply. I now have Opera 27.0.1698.88647 on my Galaxy pro 8.4. It, however, did not fix the issue. I am afraid I will have to un-install and re-install. I am mildy tech savvy but do not delve into the deep end of the pool so to say and know just enough to get my self into trouble. The only thing I can think of that may have triggered, perhaps, an unstable sistuation, is that I had quite a few tabs open...perhaps 20-25. Perhaps that caused a stability problem and a hang issue that freezes everything solid? I tried completely stopping the app from the setting menu, hard reboots etc and nothing I can do fixes it.
