Now on a clean windows ( i have copied directory with opera to new hdd ) opera does not see any of my old data

Weird. That should have worked fine for you. I assume something went wrong with Sync and it messed things up. Is all your data at https://sync.opera.com/?

Can you test in Chrome, Chrome Canary, Chromium, Vivaldi, the latest snapshot of Vivaldi, and the latest Opera Developer?

Opera's change in behavior could be due to a change/bug in the underlying Chromium that's in the version of Chromium that Opera's currently using.

Also, if that's the case, searching the net for solutions for this issue in Chrome should help with Opera also.

In Opera, goto the URL opera://about to see where Opera is installed. Then, close down Opera and delete the install directory.

Then, download the Opera installer, launch it, click "options", set "install path" to "C:\Program Files\Opera", set "install for" to "All users", adjust the other checkboxes and install.

If you do it that way, Opera should then be available in Default Programs in Windows.

Syncronized into my account

Wonder if it's caused by some setting that's getting synced back to the new Opera profile.

https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/user-agent-switcher-5/ is a good extension for doing this.

There's also this extension for masking as Chrome on all sites with no config. Good for testing.

@pingu01 said in Opera horribly lagging and constantly freezing after new Graphicscard.:

@burnout426 could you disclose what the issue was?

Sorry, I don't know any details except that it was an issue with a setting (not sure if that was meant as a simple preference issue or if it meant a setting with one of Opera's internal extensions).

I would guess that it had something to do with the extension blocking on search pages feature though.

@sgz001 said in Opera 9.21 spontaneously closes.:

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but it still does it.

Did you also delete your profile to start with a new one? If not, the issue could be in the profile folder. You could rename operaprefs.ini (not operaprefs_default.ini) to see if that fixes anything. You could delete autosave.win in the sessions folder. Mail is definitely a possibility.

@sknoop said in Cannot Play Videos in Website:

It is Win10 Enterprise edition

There's a recently thread on this same issue. Windows Enterprise edition again. https://forums.opera.com/topic/29920/opera-not-loading-videos

Not sure why you're getting at folder in the downloads folder. That shouldn't happen. Do you have your download folder set to a non-default spot?

@louay-madanat said in 'opera autoupdate' folder keeps showing up in Downloads folder:

Should I disable autoupdate to get rid of it? I get RSS updates on any new public releases/updates anyway so I could just manually update.

You could if you want. Rename opera_autoupdate.exe in the latest version folder in Opera's program files folder.

Instead though, you could delete Opera's program files folder, clear your user temp folder, and clear the c:\Windows\temp folder of Opera stuff. Then reinstall Opera. That might fix it.

I'm guess that somehow your downloads folder is being treated as a temp folder by Opera or at least the auto updater.

What OS?
