Thanks! I knew it would be something obvious

I just set up sync on my PC so I could sync with Mini on my phone. I don't see a way to set up sync in Mini. Am I just not seeing it or is is not an option. (I have a way of not seeing things that are right in front of me )

@sgunhouse
Thanks... would not have thought of that one

Great idea for saving login info when changing the password or alias
Now, if only we could add a pw that didn't get saved when the option banner disappeared... Maybe there's a security issue I haven't thought about.

The offer to save a password sometimes disappears before there's a chance to click the button. Is there a way to add a pw after the 1st chance has passed? It's probably something obvious.
In Settings, there's no option for adding pw in Manage passwords.

Examples (optional) :
Sometimes when I don't visit a site very often, I can't remember the right alias or password that wasn't saved. I make a guess & the offer to remember password pops up. Since I was guessing, I don't want to save until I see whether it works or not. When I get the info straightened out, the offer to save pw doesn't come up again.

The Save pw banner is subtle & appears at top of page, It doesn't catch my attention when I'm focused login boxes lower down on the page. Sometimes just I space out when the offer comes up & it disappears before I get a chance to click Yes. (I wish it stayed up a few seconds longer.)

Anyway, I'm hoping there's a way to add the missing passowrds

I used to but cut down to around 3-4 to see if it made a difference. It takes longer for %Disk to go up, but it eventually does. I used to have around 4 tabs pinned plus others open, but unpinned all except gmail.

I just saw that Opera TM shows gmail using a lot of memory, but hi memory use in Win TM doesn't necessarily correlate with hi %Disk. Anyway, am about to unpin gmail to see if it helps.

So I start Opera with around 4 tabs open (+/-) and while using it often have 10-15 open. Sometimes I do a lot of opening & closing. Am not sure how many tabs are too many.

I don't see it making a difference if the "Delay opening background tabs" is activated,,, had hoped it would

I don't use many other programs while using Opera-- generally Word, music, games, IrfanView...

Thanks for the info on Opera Task Manager "Shift+Esc"
My PC bogs down pretty often & Windows Task Manager sometimes shows that Opera memory is high on the list, but I didn't know how to find the offending page.

More important (for me), my entire PC starts creeping along, eventually just above a freeze. Win Task Manager shows Opera using 100% Disk. It usually starts after Opera has been up for 2 hours or more.
I tried:

• Clearing Opera cache
• Uninstalling all extensions (only had one)
• Exiting/Restarting Opera
• Doing uninstall/reinstall
• Added USB thumb drive set up with ReadyBoost

The behavior started sometime last fall (2016). The only way I can free it up is to reboot the PC.

I think Windows TM %Disk field is the same as virtual memory, but haven't been able to find much info & am not sure. Haven't found a particular Opera page causing the problem. Just now looked at the Opera Task Manager. There are several fields that can be added. Which one would indicate the %Disk shown in Windows Task Manager? Any other suggestions?

Oh yeah, forgot to say: DOH!
(smacks self on head)

IT WORKED!!!
I tried 2 of the rec's on the page for reporting problems:

• turn off all extensions
• reset flags to default

After 3 hr, my computer and Opera are both back to normal, running smoothly. The Disk usage has been less than 5% except a couple of times when it should have gone up (loading big pg, etc). It immediately went back down.

There are some other trouble-shooting recommendations on report probs page, so even if your situation is different, it's worth checking into. I think resetting flags fixed mine. Am going to re-activate my only extension & see what happens.

Thanks leocg!!!
