Do more on the web, with a fast and secure browser!
Download Opera browser with:
I miskeyed a URL. Now, any time I want to go to that URL, Opera always & only suggests the miskeyed URL.
It used to be that I could click on the X next to a URL on the search bar to remove a suggestion.
But I guess the feature was working too well, because now it's not there anymore.
Y'all keep finding the weirdest things to eff around with instead of just leaving them alone.
As of this evening, when I try to make a call on Google Hangouts using Opera, I get this, no matter what device I use:
This only happens in Opera on multiple devices. Hangouts calling works just fine on Edge & Chrome, so this is an Opera-only issue, and it happens on Opera for all devices.
I have had Opera installed for months with no recent re-installs and no known updates. Everything was fine earlier today and nothing changed to my knowledge.
@leocg I've noticed a very sudden and dramatic decline in performance since Opera's latest update. Just today, my computer was at 100% CPU usage with most of that going to Opera, when I had one single tab open: my Gmail inbox.
This is an extreme example, but in general, since the latest update, I've noticed Opera generally takes up much more memory than before, and causes an overall lag on the system that goes away immediately as soon as I close Opera.
As it is, the default split screen feature makes the new, updated Opera almost unusable until changing the flag to disable split screen. There's a number of situations where I just want to separate tabs into two separate windows - and split screen takes that option away from me.
The split screen option would be so much more practical, and far less disruptive, if you could split screen by right-click dragging - while typical tab moving/dragging etc would remain on left-click.
Of course, it doesn't even matter if it's left click/right click. What matters is, split screen needs to have some distinct trigger - a hot key? a key combination? etc. - something to distinguish from when I just want to drag a tab.
That way, I'm not forced to split screen when I don't want to use it, but I have the option available to me when I do want to use it.
Like every other version after 119.0.5497.56, this version still crashes when streaming video. When will Opera finally address (or at least explain) this bug?
Here's the crash I got when I had 1 tab open, streaming a video, and then I clicked the button to open another tab. The new tab didn't even open before the browser crashed:

@leocg said in Google Hangouts calls stopped working on Opera, work on all other browsers:
@annoyed-at-updates To get old versions, see www.opera.com/download.
To stop automatic updates, check the FAQ
hey, thanks for the pointers.
i tried a variety of older versions and now none of them are able to complete a Google Hangouts call.
i'm not having this issue with any other browser, and this is a core of my internet usage so i guess i have to jump ship. 
@burnout426 Developer's fine in this one particular respect. I can open new tabs without crashing.
@kshitizreturns complained, yes; solution, no. I'm using different browsers, and keeping an eye out for if/when these recent issues with Opera get resolved.
@DerSchlingel said in Opera 120.0.5543.161 Stable update:
We're on Opera 120 (Chromium 135!!!!!, Chrome already is 139, even Vivaldi 138) for nearly eight weeks already). That's a total joke securitywise. Come to terms with updates, please! Even 121 is still on Chromium 137, while official Chromium is approaching 140 in a handful of weeks.
I'm very disappointed, actually.
Part of me secretly likes how our preferences are polar opposites. There is balance in the universe after all.
@Opera-QA-Team said in Opera 120.0.5543.161 Stable update:
@annoyed-at-updates: Thanks for the detailed report. You mentioned it happens 100% of the time while streaming video - could you let us know where you’re streaming from (e.g., YouTube, Twitch, a specific site/service)? Also, when you open the new tab, are you clicking the “+” button in the tab bar, or using a keyboard shortcut?
re: "+" button or keyboard shortcut - it crashes either way.
re: where streaming - mostly YouTube, but I have the same problem with Google Meet calls, FB Messenger video calls.
Twitch is okay - I just never thought to check there because I never go there.
@burnout426 Developer's fine in this one particular respect. I can open new tabs without crashing.
This version still crashes if I'm streaming video, and attempt to open up a new tab.

@leocg My meaning was perfectly clear.
I provided further documentation for the problem I've been outlining for this entire thread (Opera One browser crashing when streaming video - whether on video call or elsewhere), followed with two questions. You addressed the question about the crash ID.
I was following up to see if you had any comment on the entire rest of what I'd written, regarding the browser crashing when streaming video. If you do not, that's okay.
@leocg Thank you.
Any thoughts on the other issues that I raised?
Hello Opera Support Team,
I continue to experience crashes with the latest Opera versions, an issue that has persisted across multiple updates for over two months - including the most recent update, 120.0.5543.128.
I want to be clear: the lack of meaningful engagement so far leads me to believe my concerns are not reaching the right people. I have made multiple reports and repeatedly requested support, both on this forum and via the "Report a Bug" feature on the website, but have not received a substantive response.
I have gone above and beyond in providing detailed documentation across multiple versions. In line with that, I am including details from the most recent crash reports below:

I have two specific questions:
#1: Why do I keep seeing the message: "Uploaded Crash Report ID: Discarded=1"?
I need to understand if this means my reports are not being reviewed.
#2: When can I expect feedback on the change between versions 119.0.5497.56 and 119.0.5497.70, which seems to be causing instability in every subsequent release?
