In preparation for a virtual session with a doctor, I am testing my connection to the Epic/My Chart video system - their test link -- and am finding it not recognizing my Logitech C510 Webcam, microphone or speaker in Opera 114.0.5282.185 (Win 10 Pro). In settings for the website, camera and microphone are "Allow, Sound is Automatic (default) and USB devices is Ask (default). This is with the webcam merely plugged in, its software not opened. With MS Edge, all three are recognized right off. While I've never had a telemedicine session on the Epic system, other meetings and such work fine. What am I missing?

@daria19: The hCaptcha has changed to a pick the one that doesn't match type, but the result is the same. Likewise, it doesn't happen with other browsers.

hCaptcha is having problems with this build of Opera, or maybe Opera generally. Today at https://shop.acousticsciences.com/, a captcha of a type I hadn't seen before kept returning "incorrect" to correct answers. The strange thing is that Edge, FF, Chrome and Vivaldi didn't bring up hCatpcha at all, but went straight from the username/pw to my account page, even though I'd never used those browsers with that site. I also ran into a problem with hCaptcha going through the same process going to my account at paracable.com', Except there it agreed that I had completed the two captchas correctly and sent me a code. However, the code just led back to another two. Getting those correct finally took me into my account order page. I find it hard to believe it was built that way. In any case, I reported it the Acoustic Sciences site and also had an exchange with hCaptcha support. After claiming I was using a VPN -- I wasn't -- they said it would be forwarded to the "relevant team," But now they're saying to use another browser.

Here is a OneDrive link to a sequence of screenshots showing an example of what I went through at the Acoustic Sciences site: https://1drv.ms/f/c/9d4c8f53752802ab/EpIM1d-s3aJPq9CGuRoXnHQBrj4-lagdXQ_hE65rhQt2FA?e=o4BESf

@burnout426 Thanks. I see that there is a delete on close setting.

A programmer fixing a website asked me if I have regular (not session) cookies set to be deleted automatically each time Opera closes. Not that I want to, but in looking for the answer to their question I couldn't find any setting like that, only something requiring user (manual) action. Is there one?

106.0.4998.19 -- https://www.foxsports.com/live/fox-digital#no_universal_links -- In Opera, returns "An error occurred. Please try again later [Error:403]" Works with IE. Turning off ad blocking doesn't solve it. This has gone on for some time. Even had a go around with Fox support about it.

I thought auto update was turned off. I don't want auto update and consider it intrusive and insulting. I want to update Opera when I'm ready to, not have someone else force it upon me unprepared.

@leocg Thanks.

This page is supposed to show regular and sale prices, as it does with other browsers. It's not doing so with Opera, even logged in, because it sees me as outside the U.S. Further evidence of this is that when I open any of the items, there's a "This product is only available through a dealer in your area." The company doesn't use dealers in the U.S., only elsewhere. I've deleted cache, history, etc., i.e., everything but cookies. Is there anywhere to delete cookies for one site only? The result of doing so generally is a PITA.

In moving around SD thumbnails, occasionally I end up with a couple in an unintended folder. Is there a way to extract the separate thumbnails, short of "opening all" and recreating the individual items?

@burnout426 Programs don't ordinarily say they are creating a restore point during install.

In Win 10, when I open System Restore and consider which restore point to use, the affected programs list doesn’t include Opera, even when there have been multiple updates, as there were a couple of days ago. Why? Updates for FF and Edge show. And back with Opera 102, when an update messed with extensions, Opera was there and System Restore was able to go back to the previous version. No more?

How do we get rid of the Halloween(?) pot at the top of the SD, wasting space?

@genegold: I figured it out. There's a vertical purple "I" over on the right that has to be clicked on to show extensions. Why Opera disabled this by default on update -- and without saying anything? -- is anyone's guess and really annoying. Trying to figure out what happened and restore what I had took a good part of the afternoon.

However, fixing that doesn't explain the Windows system restore issue.

I figured it out. One has to click on the purple vertical "I" on the right, which then shows extensions. Why Opera is setting this not showing by default on update is really annoying. Trying to figure this out and the various steps I tried to get back the extensions wasted a good part of the afternoon.

There were a few updates to Opera for Windows in the past 24 hours. Sometime in there, update did it again, that is eliminated my extensions from the Address Field level (right). Opera did it last month and then I used system restore (Win 10 Pro 22H2). But even though I create a restore point each night before shutting down, Opera is not listed among the programs affected (why not?). Which leaves me in a big pickle: How do I get my extensions back showing (AdBlock, IDM, etc.)? I've submitted bug reports on both issues.

Below is what's showing now, but for some reason the file showing the extensions from before gets an error message on uploading here.

@genegold Even worse, this time I can't figure out a way to go back via system restore, because even though I create a restore point each night via Windows 10, Opera is not showing in the programs affected, not any day. Why not?

You've done it again! This version has eliminated my extension icons from the address field level. WTF??

You've done it again! Sound when Opera restarts after the update (.4928).
