@Himmelsschlingel I see there's a 134 build for macOS and Windows (no Linux) at https://ftp.opera.com/pub/opera/desktop/134.0.5954.26/, but it's not approved for updating yet. As to why and why a post was published and removed, not sure.

@stubbedtoe Not sure.

@ghastly-gruber said in Return the ability to separate search and url bar:

More often, I start typing something in the search but don't search before I realize that I need to copy the url from the page I'm currently on, but I can't find that url unless I refresh the page.

https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/copy-url-to-clipboard/miancenhdlkbmjmhlginhaaepbdnlllc. might help with that (as a workaround) for now.

On Windows, when Opera is in fullscreen mode and I hit ctrl + t, a new tab is opened and Opera immediately switches to it as I would expect. There's no address field in that new tab in fullscreen mode though to type an address to go to, but I can click on my speeddials etc. Old, Presto-based Opera had an option where if you pressed F2 (in fullscreen mode or not), you'd get a dialog with an address field where you could type an address and press enter. Something like that in current Opera might be nice.

In current Opera, you can do a little hack in fullscreen mode after you hit ctrl + t. You can then hit ctrl + shift + j to open the console, type document.location = "https://example..com/"; and press enter. But, it's probably just easier to F11 out of fullscreen, type the address, press enter and hit F11 again to go back to full screen.

Opera does have ctrl + tab and ctrl + shift + tab to cycle between tabs, which works in fullscreen mode too. That can be useful. If you want an instant no-visual switch, you can use ctrl + pageUp and ctrl + pageDown instead.

Having an option to show the address bar and tab bar when hovering at the top of the page while in fullscreen mode like you said Edge does, might be nice.

Sounds like https://forums.opera.com/topic/89217/disabling-operagx-update-page. I personally don't have the issue though.

You can close Opera and delete the "Sessions" folder in "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable\Default" to see if it helps. You'll lose all open tabs though.

While Opera is closed, you can delete everything in "C:\Windows\temp" and "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\temp" to see if it helps.

You can uninstall Opera (don't choose to delete your data when asked), delete the "Opera" install folder in "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Programs" that remains, clear those 2 temp folders, download the Opera installer in whatever browser you want, launch it, click "options", adjust everything how you want and reinstall. That might fix it. Not sure as I don't have the issue.

It should only display once when Opera starts after an update. It shouldn't be displaying on every launch. If it is, it's likely Opera is not updating correctly. What version does it say you have at the URLs opera://about and opera://version? 133.0.5932.81 is the latest is this very moment.

Now, if you don't want to see it at all, even after an update, see https://www.reddit.com/r/OperaGX/comments/1b24otz/comment/ksql4ix/ for my extension that blocks the page and auto-closes that tab.

@t-bone-tone said in Session restore broken:

Couldn't even find 'site settings' after clicking the site banner left of the address bar, which is what I presume when you say 'badge'.

The badge is usually a lock icon when the site is secure. Here's a pic:

On multiple websites

URLs to those sites?

@t-bone-tone said in Session restore broken:

Older restore recovered tabs and sessions files are just overwritten

Goto https://web.archive.org/web/20221027220343/http://lsauer.net/chrome-session-restore/#. Once there, click the badge at the left of the address field, goto "site settings" and set "popups" to "allow".

Then, right-click on the max tabs field and choose "inspect". Then, right-click on the max="50" attribute, choose "Edit attribute", hit backspace to delete it and hit ctrl + enter to apply. Then, set the max tabs to 1000 for example. You can do that via the field on the page or edit the attribute and ctrl + enter. Whichever way you want.

Then, at the bottom of the page, click "choose files" and pick one old "Session_xxx" or "Tabs_xxx" file.

Then, click the "Recently-closed" drop-down on the page and at the top, click the top "Open all" entry. That will open all the tabs the page found in the session file.

Then, repeat for other session files. Don't choose multiple session files at once even though it allows you to.

Hopefully your old session files you have laying around contain what you need.

Keep in mind that if you have a 500 open tabs from the file for example and you choose to open them all at once, Opera might crash if it can't handle it. Otherwise, things should work fine.

Also note that the page just parses the file and makes the links available to the webpage for you. It doesn't not analyze those links and send them anywhere, so there's no privacy concern.

It might fix itself once Opera upgrades to the next major version.

For now, if you want:

Goto the URL opera://settings/content/all, type bancolombia.com in the search field and click "Delete displayed content". This will log you out of your bank and clear its cookies and storage. Then, goto the URL opera://settings/clearBrowserData and clear "Cached images and files" for all time.

Then, install https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/custom-useragent-string/ and pin it to the address bar. Then, goto the URL opera://extensions and set "allow access to search page results" for the extension. Also, if you want the extension to work in a private window, enable the incognito mode option for the extension.

Then, click the extension's icon on the address bar and click "Open options page".

On the options page, in the "Enter desired URL" field, delete the * and enter https://www.bancolombia.com/personas. Then, in the "Enter a custom user-agent string" field, delete everything and enter:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/150.0.0.0 Safari/537.36

Then, click the + button to add that entry and make sure that when the entry appears at the bottom that it has the "Domain" checkbox checked and that it shows a check for the state to show that it's enabled. You can then close that tab.

Then, in a new tab, goto https://www.bancolombia.com/personas, log in and try using the site.

If bancolombia.com is not the right site, adjust things above to the correct site.

That will make you appear to be using the latest Chrome for Windows 11 when on your banking site so that it doesn't have a fit hopefully.

As an alternative to above:

You can right-click on your desktop, goto "New", choose "Shortcut", click "browse", browse to opera.exe ("Usually at "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Programs\opera.exe"), click "Next", type "Opera as Chrome" for the name and click "Finish".

Then, right-click on the "Opera as Chrome" shortcut on your desktop, goto "Properties" and switch to the "Shortcut" tab. There, edit the "target" field to add a space at the end and then "--user-agent=Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/150.0.0.0 Safari/537.36" so that it looks like this example:

"C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Programs\Opera\opera.exe" "--user-agent=Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/150.0.0.0 Safari/537.36"

Then, apply and OK out.

Then, whenever you want to log in to your bank, close Opera and use that "Opera as Chrome" shortcut to start Opera and log into your bank. If you have any issues with doing that, you might have to goto the URL opera://settings/content/all, type bancolombia.com in the search field and click "Delete displayed data" to clear cookies for the site before logging in.

@ChakaOfficial said in Lost my Bookmarks after hitting passphrase reset!:

-Bookmarks
-Bookmarks.bak (This is your holy grail right now—it's the automatic backup)

You can open up the "Bookmarks.bak" file in a text editor or JSON viewer/editor and see if all your bookmarks are there. If so, you can disable Opera Sync, fully exit Opera, copy the "Bookmarks" and "Bookmarks.bak" files to your desktop so you have backups, delete the "Bookmarks" file in the profile folder and rename "Bookmarks.bak" to "Bookmarks". Then, that should get your bookmarks back.

Then, you can enable syncing again and see if your bookmarks remain and get uploaded back to https://www.sync.opera.com/.

If your bookmarks disappear when enabling sync, you'll probably have to disable sync again, fully exit Opera, delete the "Bookmarks" and "Bookmarks.bak" files in the profile folder, copy (not move) over the "Bookmarks.bak" from your desktop back to the profile folder, rename it to "Bookmarks" and then also delete the "Sync Data" folder in the profile folder before starting Opera and enabling Sync.

You can also goto the URL opera://bookmarks and use the drop-down at the bottom left to export the current bookmarks you have left to an HTML file as a backup. Then, if needed, you can goto the URL opera://settings/importData, select "Bookmarks HTML file" in the drop-down and import that HTML file.

@ChakaOfficial said in Lost my Bookmarks after hitting passphrase reset!:

I was using ChatGPT to get me to this point and it told me that i should click Passphrase reset in order to have these bookmarks showing. Normally, a reset as i know means the data will be gone, but i did not think much of this because i.e. - "Do not remember your key synchronization password (passphrase)? Reset Passphrase" - makes it sound like i am only resetting my password without necessarily losing anything - just like a password reset for my email if i forget it right??

"Reset passphrase" at https://www.sync.opera.com/ means to wipe out all of your Sync data on the Sync server.

In other words, if you have a custom passphrase set at the URL opera://settings/syncSetup to encrypt all your Sync data before sending it to the Opera Sync server, "reset passphrase" means to reset that custom passphrase back to nothing (as in, remove the custom passphrase), which will then make the encrypted data that was created with that custom passphrase useless, so it is removed.

Then, in the default case of not setting a custom passphrase where most of your data is just synced to the Sync server unencrypted except for your passwords being encrypted with your Opera account credentials, "reset passphrase" just wipes your Sync data.

Basically, the website has just be historically confusing.

Does it happen in a test standalone installation too?

You can disable everything at the URL opera://settings/gx_lights and restart Opera GX to see if it makes a difference.

You can disable the "Hardware Media Key Handling" flag at the URL opera://flags/#hardware-media-key-handling and restart Opera GX to see if it makes a difference.

You can disable your extensions at the URL opera://extensions one by one to see if one is the culprit.

You can goto the URL opera://settings/keyboardShortcuts, reset your keyboard shortcuts and restart Opera GX to see if it makes a difference.

Does a test standalone installation mess with the Windows key too?

@beboss said in Opera 135.0.5966.0 developer update:

Full-Page Screenshot Issue

I see there's RNA-2135 file for this. It hasn't been analyzed yet.

@jim73 Glad you at least got things installed. You shouldn’t have to do it that way of course.

As for IOBit, even though the antivirus part is disabled, you might have to temporarily uninstall IOBit to completely rule it out as the culprit.

What anti-virus software are you using?

@dordob I think OP is saying that with it enabled, it only shows sometimes. If so, that sounds like a bug and might be only an issue with certain mods. Not sure.

@DHHD The fix might be able to be backported. Not sure yet.
