I switched to a different browser literally seconds after I realized this. It's completely ridiculous. I'm keeping the browser installed for some days, in case they fix it...

@tnanman My friend, from my perspective, it's mainly about respecting the user and not simply a UI or aesthetic matter. You don't expect your users to be able (or want) to have millimeter-scale precision and mouse handling abilities, just to navigate a page. And, unfortunately, I realized that many of Opera's small-but-handy functions did not allow me to switch to another browser and I'm still using it, although I have to think first and then use the scrolling bar, thus taking me 1-2 seconds to actually do so... This goes against all GUI design principles.

@leocg, it, initially, didn't work, but I restarted my PC and was suddenly using the new version. I guess I'll have to keep that in mind...

Thanks!

@leocg, do you mean the one from Opera's site? I downloaded and installed it, but it remained on version 109.0.5097.45.

If there is no solution, maybe I'll have to uninstall and reinstall the program? I haven't tried that.

Thanks.

Hi!

I'm using Opera on Windows 10, version 109.0.5097.45.

For some time now, the program has been unsuccessfully trying to upgrade to version 109.0.5097.68. I click on the button to restart and upgrade, but the version remains the same each time.

I tried taking the steps mentioned in the pinned "Instructions on posting about problems in Opera for Windows" post, before posting this problem, but I couldn't save my settings and ended up seriously messing the browser, when I reset them, so I stopped at that particular step and didn't try anything else. Actually, not only did I not save them, but I also messed my bookmarks (some ancient ones suddenly appeared). Posting the bug as soon as I encounter it from now on, sorry...

Hi!

I have the same problem with many sites... The only way to display them, properly is the private window (which I didn't even know that existed, thanks...). I hope there will be a new upgrade...
