@bbildman The same happens on a private window?
Hi Leo, with the advent of Opera One(version: 115.0.5322.77), the slow Google searches seems to have been corrected. Now all seems to be as it should be, thanks to you and burnout for y'all's help.

@bbildman said in Need Info About Opera Stable Folder:
What are the SSDFP files?
Not really sure. I don't think I see any in my profile folders. Looking it up, I guess it stands for site-specific digital fingerprinting data, but couldn't really find more info than that.
Because we can find a LOT of those in both Opera Stable and Default folders. Just askin'
@burnout426 What are the SSDFP files? (By the way, I appreciate all the help you and leo give me, sure helps)
@leocg So...in that profile directory there are some other files and folders besides the "Default" folder. The "Default" named folder is quite huge (some 1.4 GB or so) and contains replica named folders and files that also reside in its parent directory, Opera Stable.
Am I to assume ALL the files and folders in the Opera Stable directory except "Default" are also necessary (besides "Default") for Opera One to operate?
Am I making myself clear??
@leocg Talking about the profile directory; I already knew about the old version number folders in the install directory
I am on a Windows 10 laptop; the Opera Stable folder has in total some 1.41 GB of files. The default folder has about 1.21 GB of files. The Opera Stable directory minus the default folder, has about 226 MB in it. So...my question is this::
I have auto update disabled, and when a new version of Opera becomes available, I always copy the Opera and the Opera Stable folders to another location before I install the newest Opera over the current one. Are ALL of the files and folders (besides the default folder) needed when a new install is performed??
Thanks (sorry for being so long winded.
@leocg said in Slow Google Search:
@bbildman Did a search here and the results page loaded almost instantly.
Of interest, I have discovered something interesting in regards to slow searches. If I use my text cursor to mark a word phrase to search for, and the little dark "Search/Copy/Snapshot" thingee pops up, and do the search from THAT "Search," the search takes a while, and while THAT is transpiring I go back to the search term page and right click it and do the search from the right click menu, the search happens instantaneously, even as the first search is trying to finish ITS search!!!
Any ideas, besides to always do the search from the Opera right click menu?
Is it just me or is this the new default for Opera_114.0.5282.222:: Icon background color is now light grey instead of black??
Thanks

@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.
@bbildman Back to Duck, Google on some searches take up to 15 seconds to complete
@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.

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.
