Green usually means a hardware-acceleration issue with your GPU driver.

First, goto the URL opera://flags/#disable-accelerated-video-encode, disable the "Hardware-accelerated video encode" flag and restart Opera to see if that helps. If not, turn the flag back on.

If that doesn't help, while "Use graphics acceleration when available" is enabled at the URL opera://settings/system, adjust the Angle flag for your GPU.

If that doesn't help, put things back to default. Then, try disabling graphics acceleration at the URL opera://settings/system.

For me, the app icon only shows in the preview window. It doesn't show in the Windows 11 task manager.

With that said, you can goto the URL opera://extensions turn on developer mode and click "details" for a mod with an app icon to get its ID. Then, goto the URL opera://about, take note of the "profile" path, browse to the "Extensions" folder in the profile folder, go into that ID folder, go into the version folder and you'll see the app icon file (in an "app icon" folder for example).

In the mod I tested with, the app icon is a png file which isn't compatible with the taskbar. But, I imagine you could convert it to an ico file. Then, you can right-click on Opera GX's taskbar button, right-click on "Opera GX Browser", goto "Properties", click "change icon" on the "General" tab and point it to the ico version of the app icon. That might work. Just note that you might have to open the Windows Task Manager, select the Windows Explorer process on the Processes tab and restart Windows Explorer to see the change. But, it's something you can try if you really really want it.

Opera GX 114.0.5282.218 has the New Look that was in Early Bird on by default and no way to turn it off now.

There are extensions that do that. See https://chromewebstore.google.com/search/send link by mail. I've used https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/share-link-via-email/ejdbkikfbnnhmachnnomjfgjbgkcnjkb to send the URL for a page view Thunderbird for example.

At the URL opera://password-manager/passwords, you can delete an entry and then click "add" to manually add your own entry with the URL you want.

If you look in uBlock Origin's settings, you can see the adblock lists it uses. For example, under "Multipurpose", it has "Peter Lowe’s Ad and tracking server list" that points to https://pgl.yoyo.org/adservers/serverlist.php?hostformat=hosts&showintro=1&mimetype=plaintext. You can save that list, go into Opera's adblocking settings and add that file as a custom list.

Known issue that's being worked on. It only happens when you have the sidebar set to autohide and only happens with the "Show popup with clipboard and recent downloads when uploading files" option enabled at the URL opera://settings/userInterface.

@rick2 See https://forums.opera.com/post/363001. It's in the settings for Aria panel page instead of in the "AI Services" section at opera://settings.

PiP is working but it has round corners now

Yes, the round corners are intentional.

in this update they turned off acceleration for as default?

"Use graphics acceleration when available" is still set to be enabled by default. If you never disabled it, not sure why it got disabled.

@andrew84 Yeah, I don't think that option has done anything in a long time. Even when it did, I don't think it made a difference on Windows 10 and 11 and maybe only did something on 7 and maybe 8/8.1. I've been meaning to ask if it's supposed to do anything anymore and if not, if it will be removed.

@Labna said in Opera automatically sets itself as the default browser on installation (Windows):

----launchbrowser=0

I assume you meant --launchbrowser=0.

Goto the URL opera://settings/content/siteData, make sure the default behavior is set to "Allow sites to save data on your device" and make sure all the customized behavior lists are empty.

Goto the URL opera://settings/cookies, make sure it's set to "Block third-party cookies in Incognito mode" and make sure the allow list is empty.

Goto the URL opera://settings/clearBrowserData, switch to advanced and delete just "cookies and other site data" and "cached images and files" for all time.

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

Then in Windows Explorer (File Explorer) (with extensions and hidden items enabled under View -> Show), browse to "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming". Then, right-click on the "Opera Software" folder, goto "properties", switch to the "General" tab, click the read only box till its blank (all white) and click apply. Then, switch to the "Security" tab, make sure your username is listed in the "Group or user names" field and make sure your user have full control (checkmarks all the way down the "Allow column" except for "special permission". Then, apply if needed and OK out. Then, repeat for the "Opera Software" folder in "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local".

Then, test things out in Opera to see if cookies stick and survive a restart of Opera and a restart of Windows.

When shutting Windows down or restarting it, make sure you properly exit Opera. Do not leave Opera open and have Windows force-close it. That can corrupt Opera's files.

Awesome. It'll probably take a bit to get into Opera Stable, but thanks for confirming that it's fixed.

@saidtorres3 There's a fix for this in Opera Developer. See https://blogs.opera.com/desktop/2024/11/opera-116-0-5351-0-developer-update/.

Please test in that build with extensions (including Bitwarden) to confirm that it's fixed. It seems fixed to me in both my test case and in Bitwarden from addons.opera.com.

@pdw https://www.opera.com/download

In M2 that's built into Opera 12, in "Preferences -> Advanced -> Downloads", uncheck "hide file types opened with Opera", select "application/pdf" and click "Edit".

In that dialog, you can choose what happens with PDF files. For example, if Foxit provide an NPAPI plug-in, you can set the download option ot "Use plug-in" and set it to the Fox-it reader plug-in so that Opera uses the plug-in to render the PDF inside Opera (in a new tab for example).

Or, you can set the download option to "open with default application" if Foxit is the default for PDFs on your system. Then, when you choose to open a pdf attachment, Opera will create a temporary file for it and pass that path to Foxit to load it in the external Foxit reader. If Foxit isn't registered as the default PDF reader, you can use "open with other application" instead and choose the path to its exit and try adding a space and %1 or "%1" after the command.

If you're using the standalone Opera Mail client, it doesn't have those options in the UI.

Note that you can do this yourself. It's pretty simple. See https://reddit.com/r/OperaGX/comments/1bbucna/custom_background_music/ for more info.

It's not as user-friendly as I assume you're hoping, but it's something for now.
