@sergik2017 said in Opera 129.0.5823.22 YouTube cannot play long videos:

The video starts playing for the first minute and a half. Then it stops and says “Something went wrong.” I think this is due to some kind of Opera extension. I'll try to turn everything off.

Turn off VPN and adblocker too - they may interfere.

I have seen such kind of message occasionally, before playing, usually some refershes help. What can be cause that, I have no idea; I would blame some ad- or other blocker, but no hard facts.

What this means exactly - video stops at some point, becomes garbled, tab crashes, something else?

@Opera-QA-Team said in Opera 130.0.5832.0 developer update:

@donq: Thanks for sharing. I checked that this crash should be fixed on the next developer release. Please check it after update.

Checked today, everything is working well again, thank you!

PS. I had some problems with updating after I had rolled Opera back to 128 and renamed opera_autoupdate - renaming it back did not help anymore. Reinstalling from downloaded installer worked without problems. Just FYI

@pisculishi6161
Thank you for clarification!
Unfortunately I'm not using sync (and can't suggest anything) - but hopefully more knowledgeable people can respond

@pisculishi6161 Are you using VPN?
As Opera itself is quick as always here (on very different PCs and networks), then it is certainly not a general problem. On one of my computers Opera is open for weeks - no slowdowns.

@donq: Hello, thanks for letting us know. Could you share the crash ID? You will find it in opera://crashes

Sure, for two last crashes:
Crash from Monday, March 16, 2026 at 1:32:53 PM
CrashID=bp-cd9af9d2-3df2-4dc6-be9c-66ed20260316
Crash from Monday, March 16, 2026 at 1:32:53 PM
CrashID=bp-11748b48-48f9-4d5d-9756-d0c270260316

This time crashed without forcing scale factor - similar problems.
I have had no possibility to check latest dev version yet.

It may be Opera 130 problem, but can be some trouble at my side - I had no time to check today and can investigate after few days, not earlier.

But I post it here - if anyone other sees similar problems, then I'll test it further.

I have two PCs with Opera dev installation. One of those has got no problems with 130 dev version, another one crashed immediately, then I attempted to click on some heavy JS page, it crashed again, then itcrashed while clicking on google chat "disable notifications", then crashed at loading some other page and so on. I had to roll back it to 128 (previous 130 crashed too; as Opera has been open for weeks, I had not updated it long time).

Configuration of working and crashing instances is mostly same, working instance has much more extensions loaded.
Crashed instance was launched with --force-device-scale-factor command-line flag however - maybe that was the culprit.

@jojo0587 said in Opera 128 developer:

Incorrect names of some options:

• Other bookmarks
• Bookmarks bar
• Trash
  

It's actually folder icons overlaying text, reported by support system also.

@t1019 Performance disadvantage - and need for double action if you wan't to disable adblocker for some sites.
I personally keep AdBlock only to easily cut off annoying parts of pages, no block lists used there. Opera internal ad-blocker is likely faster too (although I don't have any metric).

@opera-qa-team: No checkbox boders anywhere. Check for example: MDN site: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Reference/Elements/input/checkbox
(That was reported already for previous dev version.)

Is it my system or are (HTML) checkboxes just vanished? At least their borders? This is completely unusable

@proseo2075
Did you disable VPN and/or Opera internal adblocker? Both may interfere.

@kimkorton said in My Texas Roadhouse Website Not Loading Properly in Opera on Desktop:

I can share my website url to you so that you can check

You should start with that. Without looking at your site we can give only very general hints, like "turn VPN off" (although I don't believe that all your clients use Opera with VPN) or "do not serve mixed content".

Generally Opera is pretty reliable tool, there are very few sites in the wild, which trigger some unique Opera errors.

@domie-cat said in [Windows 7]Opera slower and slower:

my computer is very old with many unecessary files that slow it

Files do not slow computer Spinning disks make it slow, especially when they are almost full or on the verge of failing; unnecessary background processes take resources, overheating CPU slows down - there are couple of possible causes for gradual slowdown.

Of course newer webpages are slower than old ones - this is given.

Clear cache, even on SSD huge cache may sometimes slow down Opera.
What kind of disk drive you've got - HDD or SSD? If HDD, then you need to take care of it (clear temp files, defragment etc - or just replace it with SSD).

@temminckiiii
Identical layout here in Opera and Edge. What version of Opera you're using?

@donq said in Opera and Fritzbox 7530 MP:

Expired certificate certainly needs to be replaced

But what is the best way to obtain a valid SSL certificate,
Windows Update, or how should I proceed ?

Problem is not in Windows, but in Fritzbox. Most likely Fritzbox certificate is either self-signed or replaced by some Letsencrypt one (which is expired)(I read this from Fritzbox help pages) and you should either trust its certificate (for windows) or renew it. Both are non-trivial tasks for people, not familiar with certificates; as I have no Fritzbox here then I can't guide you step by step either

But as other people said, it is usually easier to make browser (Opera) trust such certificates and not fiddle with windows or Fritzbox certificates.

About suggested opera://flags/#unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure - just copy-paste that text into address field and press enter, you will see something as next, set it to enabled and fill it with your fritzbox address (it may be http://fritz.box too - you need to try both):

Restart opera and try to connect - maybe it works this way.

@dumpfbacke1411 said in Opera and Fritzbox 7530 MP:

After further research, I now believe that in my case, it is due to an expired SSL certificate.

Certificate problem was my initial guess too, just as there can be different security warnings, I wanted more information.
Expired certificate certainly needs to be replaced

@girlswithguitars said in Spaces in bank card number:

On my bank website, I type in my card number/password, and automatically spaces appear every 4 numbers

Does this happen with Edge and/or other browsers or not?

@dumpfbacke1411 said in Opera and Fritzbox 7530 MP:

I always receive a security warning.

What kind of warning? Do Edge and/or other browsers work without problems?
