@korol78: Thank you for your feedback! The VPN feature is functioning correctly on our end, so we'd like to understand the issue you're experiencing. Could you please provide more details about the problem? If possible, attach a screenshot in English to help us investigate.

My slow searches using Google has nothing to do with VPN, I am not using it. The issue happens every now and again (enough to be disconcerting). That using DuckDuckGo as my default search engine eliminates the issue tells me that this has something to do with Google and Opera/Chrome. A screenshot will do no good, it will simply show an empty screen and the search ongoing. Also using the Google home page (entering the search term in Google's search box) also works perfectly, even as the search is delayed on another tab. I have not yet tried it with extensions off, but that it happens also in Chrome tells us something (I do not have any extensions in Chrome). I have cleared the cache many times, it does not good.

Hope this helps, and the fact that others have similar issue also tells me it is just not my system, it happened all the way back to O99.

Very slow Google searches, not always but often enough. Disappears when Opera sets default Search engine to DuckDuckGo (or any others beside Google). This has been happening in many previous iterations of Opera for Windows

@bbildman Back to Duck, Google on some searches take up to 15 seconds to complete. Will wait for this to shake out.

@leocg Now, after an hour or two, Opera is back to the slow delayed search for Google, will probably go to Duck

@leocg Of interest, as of Now this morning (don't know how long it will last) Google searches working normally no matter where I do the search (this after I had changed the search engine setting to DuckDuckGo, and then back again to Google this AM, turned off the laptop overnight). I will report in a day or so to see if it resorts back to slow searches.

@buchtik said in Slow Google Search When Using The Address Bar:

for a long time the same problem - endless response, now a little better ... must repeat enter in the address bar

And what a difference if you change the Opera default search engine to DuckDuckGo (or any other than Google)...instantaneous

@leocg said in Slow Google Search When Using The Address Bar:

@bbildman You can try disabling extensions to see if it makes any difference

Leo, I now have narrowed the issue down to Google search (at least on my laptop (win 10 and Opera_114.0.5282.154). If I change my search engine to DuckDuckGo, the searches happen instantaneously, whereas the slowed search happens with Google, if the search term is entered on the address bar or outlined test in a page.

@Katsygin said in Opera One R2:

I have Opera one 114.0.5282.154 . Will it update itself to R2?

If you read the first 2 posts in this thread, R2 starts with 114.0.5282.115...so any version number past that is a R2 Opera

@burnout426 All I can say is...weird...and I spoke too soon, seems late today, United is back with problems unless the js is disabled. I have also tried "disabling" js via an extension, but that doesn't work, only the opera://browserjs/ solution does.

@burnout426 #1 The site has been like this for a long time, since at least 6 months.

#2 I disabled js using the opera://browserjs action, and it works. But lo and behold, the site works even with js enabled also, I closed Opera, reopened it and now the site works perfectly. Have no idea why this is, but maybe the site has overheard our conversations.

My next major issue is how to correct slow search times using the address bar. Using the Google home page and doing the search within Google's search box works instantaneously

@burnout426 As an aside, now Chrome, and Edge no longer is letting me login, continue getting

"Something went wrong
Sorry, something went wrong. Please try again."

when just entering either my wife's or my mileage plus#

Also, without logging in, I did a flight search, and get this::

"We're sorry, but united.com was unable to complete your request. Please try later or contact united.com Support in the U.S. and Canada at 1-800-825-2296; the U.K., phone 0800 028 5003; elsewhere use the local phone number"

@burnout426 said in united.com flight searches always fail on oper:

@bbildman Does disabling browser.js for the session help?

Disabling js completely disables the entire site, and cannot login at all, the page is blank, with a short message to enable js.

Also, when I just enter my mileage plus #, I get this

"Something went wrong
Sorry, something went wrong. Please try again."

@burnout426 Have had that problem myself with Opera 99 and also Opera 114. Works in Chrome though...also trouble logging in

I installed Opera_114.0.5282.144 over Opera_114.0.5282.115 and now an important web site does not display correctly. Can I just reinstall Opera_114.0.5282.115 or .144??

@bbildman I spoke too soon, and though the offending long searches are still there, they are somewhat quicker. It usually happen when I use my text cursor to outline some text and search for that from the Opera search popup. For instance, when I outlined the words in the previous sentence "Opera search popup" it took some 15 seconds to return the search result.

@leocg I've installed the new R2 (Opera_114.0.5282.115) and the delayed search issue seems to be gone. I say seems because it often takes many searches before it rears its ugly head. Will update you if this changes. Thanks for your assistance

@burnout426 Not sure if this is pertinent, but I have updates disabled and will leave it that way. As each new update becomes available, what I do is read about it to see if I want to update. Before doing the update, I copy both the Opera launch folder, and the Opera Stable folder into a separate folder not associated with Opera. This way, if I have issue with the new update, I just delete the Opera folder and the Opera Stable folder and copy back the folders from the previous version of Opera, not losing anything.

@burnout426 and leo, Thank you so much for your help here over the years!!
