Whatever is in the newest Opera Update has cased the browser to become unresponsive and freeze for a good 30-45 seconds. It does thee same thing on the other 2 PCs in the house.
What happened, Opera?
Not cheers.

DDG sold out is now blocking access to politically incorrect material (AKA very biased to the Left). It also allows advertising from M$ in a sweetheart deal DDG struck with M$. It is time to find another search engine.

Does anyone have any trouble-shooting recommendations to try and fix this? This has been happening over the last several weeks.
Thanks,
Jeff

That worked. Thank you very much! I must have disabled it at some point for some reason.

The blue shield (Privacy Protection) is displayed on every other website but not on Facebook. Why is this?! Is it disabled on Facebook?

I have a new laptop and would like to copy my speed dial from the old laptop to the new one. Is there a particular files(s) that I can copy from the old pc and replace in the new one?
Thanks.

That cured it-thank you very much!
Best regards.

What is going on? My other PC does not do this.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated,
Jeff

Is it possible to have the same speed dial and bookmarks display on all my PCs?

This has been happening with more frequency lately. Is there a cause that I can troubleshoot?
It is so frustrating I am ready to switch browsers.....

The font for the Speed Dial tiles is now huge-there is no way to change it back to the normal size. Please investigate.

Using on a Dell XPS 15, 4k screen, i76700HQ.

Same problem here; but at least you are aware of the issue.

Thank you!!!

Issue closed.

I had to reinstall Win 7 and lost my current speed dial. But it is listed under:
bookmarks/other speed dials/"my pc model name".

How can I make this my opening page speed dial? Can it be done? I hope I do not have to remake my empty speed dial tab by tab.

Thank in advance,
jeff

Many thanks for the replies; I was able to find the "favorites.db", on my older PC, copy/paste/replace the empty one db on the new installation and voila! Speed Dial updated.

Thank you.

My HDD crashed and I had to re-install the OS/all programs. My Opera installation is a big blank slate of nothing.

Thanks in advance

That is great to hear. Is there some way to sticky that on the OP so folks don't get PO'd and abandon Opera. I know I was about to until I saw this post.

Thanks but the link does not offer an answer. In my case when I open Opera, the page/tab just stays on the loading dialogue. Anyone else have have a suggestion?
Jeff

Opera has been crashing too often and then started to not respond unless I rebooted the PC. I uninstalled the current version, re-installed and Opera opens but stays on the "loading" tab forever unless I quit the browser. I have allowed it through the firewall, I have turned off the firewall, turned off my AV and none of this has worked. Anyone have any experience with this problem and have a possible solution? Firefox and IE work fine but I prefer to use Opera. Thanks in advance, Jeff

Using the newest version of Opera. Was using Ghostery but disabled it when this started. Ever since the new update, all my PCs no longer have access to website comments features. Don't have a clue as to what happened. An\y thoughts?
Thanks,
Jeff
