@Franz5157 All bookmarks are stored in C:\Users\<your_user>\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable\Default\Bookmarks (extensionless file), and the Speed Dial ones (I guess that's what you meant) is under the speedDial section in that file (JSON format). If you deleted it and don't have a backup or never synchronized it... I'd say your last hope if finding a Bookmarks.bak file in that Default folder.

RE: Video Pop Up goneOpera GX
@cchcyx463 I did some tests but I couldn't find a way to change the popup positions besides dragging it with the mouse. The position is stored somewhere but I couldn't find it.
I tried disabling and re-enabling it but the position wasn't reset.
opera://settings/videoPopout
Changing the browser window size didn't help. Did you at some point change the screen resolution or the font size in Windows to something like 125% or 150%? Or maybe did you use dual monitors?If you open a private window, the popup should appear at the bottom right corner. If that works, it's just a matter of finding the window in some screen border or deleting the saved coordinates.

RE: problem uploading pictures to x and facebookGeneral
@frank-hol said in problem uploading pictures to x and facebook:
I go to upload a picture, but when I select the picture to upload, instead of it going directly to X or Facebook, it opens in File Explorer or my default picture viewer.
When I try to upload a picture, I get the ribbon at the bottom with recent images. If I open the full file browser, clicking on the file works just fine. The only way to make it do what you explain, is if I right click on the file and instead of the default Select I go to Open.
Does it happen on any other site? Or maybe are you dropping the file on the browser's tab?

RE: Decrypting Login Data/Restoring PasswordsOpera for Windows
@rttzizuhk said in Decrypting Login Data/Restoring Passwords:
Hi,
opera saved my passwords into their Login Data and yet it doesnt show under the "manage passwords" settings.Which site exactly? Sometimes sites use another domain for authentication so it might appear under a different url.
Is it autocompleting the login textboxes? -

Here 'today' shows correctly in both Dev and Stable.
Sorry to revive this thread, but as it's still failing here, is by chance your timezone UTC or UTC+? Because the date bug in the classic History happened only with negative timezones, as I discovered here:

RE: Find an address in history from one year agoOpera for Windows
@madwey said in Find an address in history from one year ago:
What can be done?
You can try checking your Google/Youtube history, in case you searched for something related to that site back then.
https://myactivity.google.com/myactivity
Another option I often use: do a search in WhatsApp, maybe you sent the link to someone.
BTW, I "chat" with my own number to temporarily store some important stuff, or to easily pass info between the computer and the phone. -
RE: [Duplicated]yes, again I lost all my tabsTab Islands, Tabs and Workspaces
@zauberfritz said in [Duplicated]yes, again I lost all my tabs:
The core of the matter seems to me not the remedy but the cause. Sometimes (or regularly) a new window is opened in Opera without the user knowing. In that case one window, the open and known one, contains x tabs ( x being some to a lot) and the other, invisible and unknown, contains only one tab. When the user closes the window he knows (no warning), the until then unknown and invisible new window appears. Now you have to be alert, prepared and aware you have lost your work and closing this new window maybe makes it worse, you have to know how to proceed. This went well until last week. I don't know exactly what went wrong. There is some (short)key on the right of the keyboard that by touching by accident made this happen.
Sorry to reopen this old post, but this happened to me last night. I had like 8 tabs, and when I closed it for tomorrow, I had a forgotten popup window from a Hotmail email. And like zauberfritz explained, as this was the last window, Opera used it as the "last session", so today I thought I had lost all those tabs.
Fortunately, while checking opera://history, under "Recently closed", I found my window with the 8 tabs and was able to get them back. I just wanted to comment this in case someone in the future finds themselves in the same situation.
Another possible fix would be that Opera keeps track of "child" windows, that is, popups generated from another window. So either the popup is closed when the parent window is closed, or simply the popup is never saved.

RE: Opera Browser Not Loading Web Pages Properly on WindowsOpera for Windows
@idakooz said in Opera Browser Not Loading Web Pages Properly on Windows:
Same thing has been happening to me recently. Not exactly sure what's casusing it but feels like a cookies problem. Tried to enable 3rd-party cookies to see if it resolves this issue but Opera never saves the setting I choose for it. Keeps reverting back to disable 3rd-party cookies.
Do you also have Kaspersky?
I stopped having this issue for some months now, luckily.I don't think a cookies issue would stop a page from loading. Does a private window have the same issue?

RE: Opera Browser Not Loading Web Pages Properly on WindowsOpera for Windows
@burnout426 said in Opera Browser Not Loading Web Pages Properly on Windows:
@aleksr2 Kaspersky is known to cause issues like that. If you have it, to test if it's the cause, you have to temporarily uninstall it (disabling it isn't enough). Some system-wide VPNs can cause the issue too. In those cases, you also have to uninstall them and not just disable them to test if they're the cause or not. All of those can sometimes affect just Opera and not Chrome.
That's interesting. I also have Kaspersky and of course I tried disabling it, which didn't help, but I also tried a standalone portable Opera instance, and it worked just fine! So I assumed it was something related to my installation or profile.
Anyway, I think it's been several days since the last time I had this issue, so maybe either Opera or Kaspersky got updated and this "duo" now works fine? I'll keep my fingers crossed...

@TycheSD said in Opera Browser Not Loading Web Pages Properly on Windows:
@aleksr2 Hi, I ended up uninstalling Opera and then reinstalled it. The version I had apparently couldn't be updated normally. I haven't had any problems since then.
But did you lose all your profile data, like history, cookies, etc.? Because I think the issue is there somewhere. Trying a separate portable Opera version seems to work just fine.

RE: Opera Browser Not Loading Web Pages Properly on WindowsOpera for Windows
@kimkorton Were you able to solve it?
My Opera started having this ugly behavior a few weeks ago. A few times every couple of hours, when clicking something in a web page, it just keeps loading forever, or perhaps the home page itself never finishes loading at all.
Sometimes stopping and reloading the page works, sometimes a new tab does, and sometimes an incognito window does.
At first I thought it was my ISP, but then I tried other browsers and they work just fine.
Unfortunately it's not easy to replicate: it's like if at some point Opera just gets tired and doesn't want to load anything for several seconds.
I disabled the very few extensions I have but the problem remains.Is anyone else experiencing this?

RE: The High CPU/RAM/GPU Usage Topic - Opera for DesktopsOpera for computers
@n4i75irhc1371 said in The High CPU/RAM/GPU Usage Topic - Opera for Desktops:


Some heavy pages sometimes start eating a lot of RAM and CPU here, mostly Facebook pages with videos. With Shift-ESC you can quickly see which page is the culprit. Closing that page alone solves the issue. And often reloading the same page in a new tab doesn't produce the problem again.
And regarding the RAM usage on your computer, you should go to the Details tab, right click on any column header, select columns and add the "Memory - Commit Size" column. In my experience that's the most realistic value, and a high number there will make your computer crawl. Order by that column and see what you find.

RE: Bizarre clipboard behavior in relation to Opera on Windows 10Opera for Windows
I'm not sure if this can be of help, but have in mind that the clipboard can have multiple types of contents. Take for example Excel. If you copy a group of cells, you can paste the text content into Notepad, but also paste a screenshot of those in Paint, having done just one Ctrl-C.
So it looks like in your case the text might have been copied to the clipboard but the image stayed, and the target app used the image content. Did you by chance try to paste afterwards in something like Notepad (where of course images can't be inserted)?
Another thought: some pages have Javascript limitation to copying stuff, I recall experiencing doing Ctrl-X and still having the previous text in the clipboard. I think the key here is exact reproduction steps, maybe related to a specific site. -
RE: DisconnectOpera add-ons
@albertop Github is clearly not updated, they might have changed the repository. The extension says:

2012 was a different "world", Disconnect would have stopped working much earlier if it hadn't been updated since.

RE: Have to type password that should be savedOpera for Windows
@didad38 What about other sites? I tried that one and I get a certificate error (only valid for remote.*), not sure if that could be related to the problem.
Your screenshot means you deleted the credentials and they were successfully saved again later? -
