Goto the URL opera://flags/#search-in-open-tabs, disable the flag, and restart Opera.

Goto URL opera://settings/startPage. You'll see a suggestions option that you can disable (among other things).

Test this solution. Remove the Opera Safe Store password from Keychain Access login item.

Steps:

Open Keychain Access application

Choose 'login' keychain on left

Choose 'Password' group

Find 'Opera Safe Storage' entry, right click it and choose Delete.

You can goto https://addons.opera.com/en/wallpapers/?tag=animated and install one of the animated wallpapers. Then, in Opera, goto the URL opera://about and take note of the "profile" path. Then, close Opera and look in the "themes" folder in the profile folder.

You'll see the folder for the wallpaper you installed. In it, you can see how to create your own. You then just zip up your persona.ini file with the webm file and thumbnail and you 'll have your custom wallpaper.

Things you can try:

Goto the URL opera://about and take note of the "profile" path. Then, close Opera and delete the WidevineCDM folder in the profile folder.

Then, start Opera, goto the URL opera://components, click "update" for Widevine, let it update, and restart Opera.

Then, start Opera and goto https://html5test.com/ and make sure it shows "yes" for h.264 support and "yes" for aac support.

Once that's good, goto https://bitmovin.com/demos/drm, make sure it says "Using Widevine" above the video and "Widevine" for EME below the video, and "video/mp4; codecs="avc1.42c00d" for MSE below the video. And, make sure the video plays and you can hear its audio.

Then, goto the URL opera://settings/siteData, type spotify.com in the search-cookies field and choose "remove all shown".

Then, goto https://open.spotify.com/ in a new tab, log in, and try to play some music.

If you still have problems, goto the URL opera://flags/#reduce-user-agent, enable the flag, restart Opera, and try again.

If you still have problems, goto the URL opera://settings/system, disable hardware acceleration, restart Opera, and try again.

If you still have problems, goto the URL opera://extensions, disable all your extensions, and restart Opera.

If you still ahve problems, make sure you're not using Opera's VPN, and try turning off Opera's Adblocking and tracking protection.

If you still have problems, try all of the above with a standalone installation.

You can also goto the URL opera://settings/content/protectedContent, and make sure "Sites can play protected content" and "Sites can use identifiers to play protected content" are set with no sites in the custom behaviors list.

In the Opera program files directory, right-click on launcher.exe to create a new shortcut and place it on your desktop. Then, on the desktop, rename it what you want. Then, right-click on the shortcut, goto properties and then the "shortcut" tab. On that tab, modify the target to add the --user-data-dir command-line switch.

For example:

"C:\Program Files (X86)\Opera\launcher.exe" "--user-data-dir=C:\Users\yourusername\Opera2"

(I personally have a "My Program Files" folder in "C:\Users\myusername", so I'd use "C:\Users\myusername\My Program Files\Opera2" for example.)

You can create as many shortcuts as you want with each using a different profile folder.

See http://peter.sh/experiments/chromium-command-line-switches/#user-data-dir for more info.

I finally got this to happen to me in Opera GX. I then went to the URL opera://settings/system and enabled "Use DNS-over-HTTPS instead of the system’s DNS settings". Then things starting working. I don't know if that's coincidence or not yet though.

Goto the URL opera://flags/#PasswordImport, enable the import flag and restart Opera. Then, goto the URL opera://settings/passwords, click the 3 vertical dots to the right of "saved passwords" and choose to import the csv file.

For the specific format of the CSV file, export passwords to a csv file from the same opera://settings/passwords 3-dot menu in any Chromium-based browser and look at the CSV file in a text editor.

Log into https://gemini.google.com/app in a tab.

Then, enable the "Custom user sites for browser sidebar" flag at the URL opera://flags/#sidebar-site-panel, restart Opera, click the 3 dots at the bottom of the sidebar, scroll down to Custom Site Panels and add https://gemini.google.com/app.

Goto the URL opera://about and take note of the "profile" path. Close down Opera and delete the WidevineCDM folder in the profile folder. Then, start Opera, goto opera://components and try updating Widevine again.

You might want to make sure opera://flags/#new-component-update-mechanism is disabled too. It should be by default, but check that URL just in case.

@burnout426 said in Allow disabling of default search engine hotkeys:

I filed DNA-119444 about those funky y/ entries

Fixed in Opera Stable 114.0.5282.144 now too.

Opera will no longer create those funky entries. However, if they're already in there from a build with the bug, you'll probably have to wipe out your history to get rid of them.

Creating thread.

@dordob See https://reddit.com/r/operabrowser/comments/1g1b2f5/opera_randomly_crashing/ for what we've tried so far.

Creating thread.

The issue with having to disable and enable an extension again after restarting Opera to get its "allow access to search page results" setting to work was just fixed internally. No guarantees when the fix will be in a public build, but watch for DNA-119467 in the changelogs in posts at https://blogs.opera.com/desktop/.

See https://reddit.com/r/operabrowser/comments/1gez80q/normal_opera_installed_itself/ and the link in that post.

@Cessaar See https://reddit.com/r/operabrowser/wiki/opera/known_issues/#wiki_opera_on_mac_won.27t_import_and_save_passwords_and_won.27t_save_cookies_on_exit. I know the issue is for fix password and cookie saving issues on macOS, but maybe it'll fix session saving too. Something to rule out at least.

@KaueTay Yeah, hopefully things work out. Strange that you get "media not supported" in the first place though. Hopefully it just fixes itself.

Is there a test file where you can share a link to it publicly that someone can click on to try and download it without having to create an account?
