If it worked all by itself I would use it, but user interaction just to save £0.02 what's the point?

@hucker Try it. Running in the background is still running.
I don't understand, I want Opera to be running but not visibly

Try this:
opera://settings/?search=start
See the option "Run when my computer starts"? Enable that.
But won't that just open opera? What I'm looking for is the code to be running in the background but without a window open, so it's ready for me to use when I want to. And I can close it and it's still ready to open quickly.

@hucker https://forums.opera.com/category/15/suggestions-and-feature-requests is still there
Thanks, I didn't see that because from the main forum page I go straight to opera for windows
Yes I know it's on the far right there, but I didn't look over there, I expected suggestions not to be inside opera for windows and looked down the main list.

@hucker This looks more as a suggestion.
Yes it is! But there is no feedback/suggestion box any more!

@hucker Opera One, Opera GX or Opera Air?
You call it Opera One, but the Opera download page refers to it as simply Opera.

RE: [Suggestion]Keep Opera in memory option.General
@JayNightmare But Opera starts instantly if it's already running. All I need is it to stay in memory. Windows will swap it to disk if it's not used and I run out of RAM. It doesn't have to do things in the background, just wait until I open it. This could surely be an option. There is an extension which makes it minimize to tray, but this requires me to remember not to press close, and also the tab stay open which I don't want.

[Suggestion]Keep Opera in memory option.General
I cannot find anywhere to give Opera feedback, only to report a bug. The feedback option has been removed from the menu and the website. So I'll try in here. Can someone escalate this or direct me somewhere better?
Edge starts considerably faster than Opera. This is because it stays in memory. Opera doesn't have this extremely useful feature, which I'm sure would increase the number of people liking the browser. Staying in memory does not slow the computer down, as Windows deals very well with dumping memory to swapfile when you run out of RAM.

@burnout426 Unfortunately I can't remember the site! I'll note down your instructions.

RE: Ublock Origin and access to search resultsGeneral
@leocg Ah, like MS's policy to deliberately remove things people find useful. Whenever the word policy is used, something bad happens and common sense flies out the window.

RE: Ublock Origin and access to search resultsGeneral
@leocg It works in other browsers and not this one, therefore it is a bug in Opera. go argue with the makers of Ublock, which I shouldn't have to use if Opera actually blocked ads properly.

@erdinc53 Obviously it's knowing you have to which is the problem!

RE: Ublock Origin and access to search resultsGeneral
@leocg Well other Chromium browsers do. Opera should at least ask the user when installing it! Not silently deny it!
-
RE: Ublock Origin and access to search resultsGeneral
@leocg Because I ticked it after reporting a problem to Ublock. The trouble is they say Opera will not allow it to be ticked by default by the extension since Opera version 57. Yet other Chrome based browsers do.

Ublock Origin and access to search resultsGeneral
Can Opera by default allow Ublock Origin access to search results? This would allow it to block ads in search results. At the moment it doesn't have access, I can't even click an ad to remove it.
I contacted Ublock and they say it has to be fixed on Opera's end.

How do I bypass security warnings?Opera for Windows
I get this from Opera visiting a certain website:
This site can’t provide a secure connection ****.** sent an invalid response. Try running Windows Network Diagnostics. ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR
How do I bypass this? There is usually a button to proceed anyway.
I tried disabling AVG and using Opera's VPN to bypass any UK government blocks.

RE: Recently closed is only tabs, not windows.General
@mystico Yes I have done this, although I use Adblocker browser on mobile because it blocks Youtube ads nicely. Opera fails to do so. Ads drive me MAD!!!
