It seems like you are facing an issue ...

It seems like you are an AI?

@robgul You may find some ideas here: https://superuser.com/a/1609930 (involves registry editing).

@bert55 Clear cookies for this site.

@sporty78 Audio can be disabled in settings (search for sound).

@leocg
Most likely he has very narrow tabs and audio icon fills entire tab width. I have seen that problem too.

@vipermini
Can you use Ctrl+Tab to activate such tab?

@kimkorton Did you disable Opera internal ad-blocker too? This may interfere, if your site uses external resources. Also when there is mixed mode content (some resources over http, some over https), then Opera may block some parts of it.
Have you using VPN? This should not affect rendering, but some external resources may not be available.
Opera shares rendering engine with Chrome and Edge, there should be no differences using CSS/JS.

Would it be possible give us link - we could check, what and how we see there?

@Atlantic01 Have you some adblocking extension installed? Try to disable them, also disable Opera adblocker temporarily - such effects are sometimes caused by some cookie or other warning, which gets blocked.

My about 40 tabs consume 800MB either. Is that actually a problem? I've got some gigabytes free, Opera could consume up to 6GB or so, I would not notice.
But as this 800 MB is for single tab and seems a bit too much, press Shift+Esc and note down, which Opera sub-processe consumes most memory. It is likely some extension, be it Opera internal or some external one.

@Retoreto Use nirsoft Opera passview to recover your lost passwords.

And try to remember your windows password - it may be needed sometimes.

About a year ago MS Teams stopped to work in my Opera browser - could not sign in (I do not remember precise error message however). People recommended to use some user agent switcher (extension) and select Edge compatible user agent there - I did that and could use Teams again.
It is possible that some MS logon pages may treat Opera in incorrect way.

Another question - do you have VPN enabled in Opera? This may sometimes cause unexplainable errors too.

@dzittin IMO it depends on page itself - Opera returns to same spot on static pages, but unfortunately it is not possible for badly constructed dynamic pages (which load content while scrolling for example).

@mrstimpy Looks like ebay behaves this way. How it is in Edge/Chrome/Firefox?

For me, Edge opens new tab too, no Firefox here. I like that actually, no need to always hold down Ctrl key

@mrstimpy Does this happen on multiple sites or just on one site?
If on one site, please add link to it - it may be page itself behaving this way.
If it happens on multiple sites, then maybe you have got some extension, which intercepts clicks and opens links in new tabs? Or you just have Control key stuck...

Next is one-time problem, cannot reproduce, has never been happened before, just for information:

After running one old, not color managed image editor, then some color-managed image viewer and switching back to Opera it lost its color managment capabilities. Having wide gamut monitor I can see that easily - colors were shown as unmanaged (unnaturally bright) ones.
After Opera restart all was normal.
Old Intel integrated graphics on W10.

In Windows settings, what is the default printer for you? If it is Adobe PDF (like your screenshot shows), then select some other printer, restart Opera and try again.

Crashes without clear context, usually while opening some background tab (not opened during current session), about once a day. Multiple crash reports uploaded, latest was "CrashID=bp-d0bea4db-4190-425a-9bb5-e207b0240902".

@rami1234
You don't post that from Opera?
Inside Opera it is prefilled with Opera version, Windows version, Graphic card info.

@xb70 said in Do automatic updates retain my opt out of Opera's use of my data?:

Is any other browser a superior protector of one's data and privacy?

In theory, Brave should allow to opt out of all 'call home and advertisers' traffic - but by default it collects information as all other browsers.

Technically, many of homecalls can be blocked by firewall or router or just hosts file. I've not watched lately, but blocking eg sitecheck.opera.com was few years ago pretty efficient

@cannarwilm If you are set Kaspersky to intercept https traffic (I don't know, is that possible or not - some suites allow that), then it replaces site certificates and some sites may not like that; also it may change and filter both web queries and responses.
Simplest test would be disable Kaspersky temporary.
