A couple days ago the SaveFrom.net extension was blocked by Opera with a message that it was malicious. I removed it from Opera but recently noticed it's still in the Opera Addons. I've reinstalled it and Opera hasn't complained about it since. So is it bad or not?
You can add a background picture to your seep dial page. Opera keeps removing my background pictures. I set up a picture for the background (on opera speed dial) and eventually it will be gone. And it doesn't even show up in the Recent Wallpapers list as they normally do. It's not a serious problem but is annoying having to reset the background pic. Anybody else having this problem and is it something that can be fixed? This is on Windows 10 with the latest version of Opera and only started with this update.
It happened to the last two pictures I used. Both where my own picture's not the ones built into Opera. It's not important enough an issue to create a new profile. Thanks anyway for the reply. I'm beginning to suspect it might have something to do with me moving the picture from it's original place on my hard drive.
It's usually only effects local images not the ones built in Opera, it doesn't matter which picture. It's usually gone within a day in my case. I'm beginning to think it's just a bug that Opera has to work on. Again thanks for all the replies.
In my case I have my personal pictures on my hard drive. I drag a picture to Opera and then right click on it and click on Use image as wallpaper. Sometimes it holds sometimes it doesn't.
I tried a little experiment, that so far seems to be holding, only time will tell. I went to the themes folder where Opera saves the wallpapers in zip format and deleted everyone there.
The path in my case was: C:\Users\Terry\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable\themes
So far I've been able to keep a background picture for two days with no problems. I'll keep your updated. As I said originally it's not a serious problem but it is annoying.
Are you referring to the settings "Show Continue Shopping section" and
"Show Continue on Booking.com section". I now have them turned off. Thanks for the replies.
Got the same problem. Just updated to Version:72.0.3815.207, the problem is still there. What I do is to hilite the web address I typed in then copy and then right-click and Paste and search and it goes through.
OK, I seemed to have solved this problem. It was an extension. Two, in this case, the Honey one and the WOT. I disable the Honey one and Facebook automatically became a little more responsive, then I disabled WOT and Facebook seems to be normal again.
This only started a few days ago. I cleared out the cache thinking it might help but didn't. After a few minutes on Facebook, the page becomes more and more unusable. Response times are greatly slowed down. When I check the task manager Opera is using over a GB of memory. This is just with Facebook open. No other tabs. Twitter also jumps to over a GB when open but it still works properly. Any suggestions? Anybody else having this problem?
Just wanted you to know I opened the details report from Avast and it was coming from an extension called "Video Downloader For Facebook". So, as long as I know what's causing it.
leocg, Thanks again for the suggestion.
Yes, it might be an extension. Thanks for the info.
A number of times I've opened Opera and Avast pops up a warning blocking laqur.check-stat.com because it was infected with URL:Blacklist. I did a search for this site and couldn't find anything. Why is Opera trying to go to this site when I open the browser?

I did that. But can other companies do this? Is it a feature that I can disable?
I went to Amazon, viewed a few products and when I closed out the web page, on my speed dials, there where three showing the products I checked out on Amazon. No thanks, Opera. I don't want my shopping history displayed on my speed dials. What feature is this and how do I disable it?
