@MikeR78 Opera should work the same on both platforms. If it doesn't they're not very good programmers. The word I'm looking for is consistency. Imagine you used both regularly....

@andrew84 So still needs fixing.

The blurryness looks like it's not used a very good resampling method. If you resample an image in a photo editor, it takes some time, so Opera correctly does a simpler one. What it could do is have these already made in two sizes and stored.

When I click a speed dial button, it bounces before opening the page. Folders do it too. So to open Ebay I have to wait twice for a bounce before I get to enjoy Ebay, can I please turn off this fluffy waste of time?

@andrew84 The more complaints the more likely it goes away.

@andrew84 Where do I put suggestions? I see nowhere in the forums. In the Opera menu I only find where to report bugs.

@leocg Ah, Chrome password generator works on another page. I guess it didn't detect it was a password field on the last page I tried.

But they are not the same. Opera always uses lower and upper case letters only. Chrome randomly uses a mixture of numbers, symbols, lower case, upper case. Although sometimes there is no number and the site won't accept it, it's better.

So Opera is not using it, or not using it the same way.

@leocg Chromium and Chrome browsers have no password suggester.

Suggested passwords from Opera have no symbols or numbers, so don't work on a lot of sites. My method of generating my own is to randomly hit three letters, three capital letters, three numbers, and three symbols, please use something like this.

@leocg But what about this chrome enabler? Should we be removing it? Why are there two if they're both built in?

@mixchild I installed a Chrome extension enabler (an extension itself I think) a long time ago, is the problem we now have two of them? Should I uninstall mine? Will I make a bigger mess?

@leocg Latest, on autoupdate. From help, about:

Opera One(version: 111.0.5168.61)
Opera is up to date
Update stream:Stable
System:Windows 11 64-bit
Chromium version:125.0.6422.143

I get the message "Your extension was disabled because it is corrupted." every time I start Opera. I've tried everything but it won't go away, it's the Ruffle extension and I'm fine not using it anymore. I tried:

Repair. Restart Opera. Problem still exists.
Remove. Restart Opera. Problem still exists.
Reinstall. Restart Opera. Problem still exists.
Remove after the reinstall. Restart Opera. Problem still exists.

How do I stop this? Can I delete something manually? The extension will not go away. It's a Chrome extension running under the Chrome extension emulator.

@leocg Whoosh!

@leocg It's not just the Opera account, it's any account with anyone. There's a bug in the browser making webpages think it's a new machine just because the browser got upgraded.

@leocg And here's another bug. After posting this, I'm warned I've had a new machine signing into Opera. No I haven't. It's the same machine with a newer version of Opera. Must I go through this with everything I log into every time Opera upgrades? And giving me the location down to the town is stupid, that's where my ISP is!!

It's amazing the lengths everyone is going to to make everything round, like we'd prick our fingers on the corners or something. I believe it was originally one of Apple's stupid inventions. In Windows, if you try to grab the round corner of any program which isn't maximised, you have to grab it where the square corner would be! A round corner on a car perhaps, for aero dynamics and fuel efficiency, but on a screen? For goodness sake! Even worse when the corners of a phone are rounded so you don't actually get to see the full photo....

20 minutes ago, it was working, now I click a link in an email (to go to a Reddit discussion) and Opera won't load it. It just sits waiting. I tried several other places I use and none worked. But Edge is fine. What could have happened? I closed and reopened Opera to no avail.

Please please please stop changing Opera in such a way everything thinks I have a new machine just because Opera got a new version. I've got Google alerting me to a new machine signing into my account, I've got banks not trusting my machine, please fix this basic flaw.
