WHY??? Was there something wrong with the way it was???? This is not an acceptable change. Not at all. You know.... "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". Seriously, this is crazy having to do an extra step to see your favorites list. Sorry for the rant but dang it, this is just plain wrong.

I too would like to know how to turn off the popup Lucid Mode notification. It is most annoying to me.

I am trying to set up a Chrome browser to match my Opera browser. I have the Chrome browser set up with the FVD Speed Dial and I want to copy or import my Opera speed dials to Chrome which is using the FVD add on. Is there any way to do this?

@leocg Well thanks to burnout426 posting the link to the update page, I finally found the X which was on the opposite side of the page. Being that I was removing the icons one at a time, I never saw the X on the right side of the page. I'm glad this is resolved. Thanks for the help.

My Opera browser goes unresponsive if I leave my PC for a few minutes without any activity. When I come back, the page is still there but none of the links or buttons are responsive unless I reload the page or end up having to restart the browser entirely. What is up with that?

@passenger-chi, Yes, I did notice that too. I also noticed that the Lucid Mode creates artifacts such as light pixels on some videos too. I honestly do not see the use for Lucid Mode myself and there should be a way to turn it completely off if desired to do so.

@NickyT I just posted a question about the same thing. I am glad you added the screenshot. This is very annoying and I hope it is fixed soon.

I installed FVD Speed Dial and I cannot find a way to make it the default browser window. I have Opera as default but when I start the browser I get the the normal Opera browser and not the FVD Speed Dial browser. Also, I would like to know how to use the animated backgrounds in the FVD Speed Dial browser as well. Can either or both on these options be activated? Thanks.

Thanks again. I couldn't see the forest for the trees. I finally figured out that I needed to do a restore down to the browser to see the desktop so I could drop that icon on it. I'm just used to doing a right click to add a shortcut to the desktop as I did in IE11.

@burnout426

Thank you very much for that information! I hope that it will speed up the process of setting up Chrome. I am having to use Chrome to view many of the demonstration videos I encounter on a lot of websites like Amazon. So many of them will not play in Opera. But I still prefer Opera to let you know.

I'll give Opera 3 days to fix this otherwise I'll be looking for a new trustworthy browser.

Add uBlock Origin to your Opera browser and there will be no more ads on YT and other web sites as well. Just Google it and add it to your Opera browser. It is easy to do and it works great!

I noticed that and I add uBlock Origin > no more ad on YT

Thank you very much for that tip. It works like a charm on YT.

@leocg Then its back to skipping ads again I guess. It was nice while it lasted.

So now I have the all new and modernized Opera browser which I am not crazy about. I don't know if the updated look has anything to do with it but right after the update, the Ad Blocker is not working on YouTube anymore. Is this due to the update or did YouTube find a workaround for ad blockers?

My sincere gratitude to the tech(s) that fixed these issues.

@leocg Thanks for your reply and suggestion. Ctrl-V does work quite well.

@leocg Hi again. About the Google search bar, I was wrong in that I could not use it to do a search. What I cannot do is copy something and paste it to the search bar. I am glad that I had the Google search page as a speed dial as I can paste text there. Any ideas on that issue?

@leocg, Well earlier, I was not able to type anything on the search line at all. I had to go directly to Google to do a search but I just tried it and it is working now. Strange. I sure hope that the speed dial issue is fixed soon though. Thanks for your reply

Not only can I not edit my speed dials but I can't use the Google search bar at the top of the page. This needs to be fixed... fast!

@leocg Thank you sir for answering my question.
