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

@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.

@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.

Filed as BUG-9749

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

@leocg Well other Chromium browsers do. Opera should at least ask the user when installing it! Not silently deny it!

@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.

See https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/discussions/28634#discussioncomment-13344380

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.

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.

@mystico But it was MY issue!

@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!!!

@leocg I have it close everything when I close the browser, because it's the only logical way.

@leocg No..... I don't want them open! I can't understand anyone wanting to accumulate 150 tabs. Going through and closing them is tedious. When I'm finished with a browser I'm finished with it, why would I continue the same websites again?

@leocg Are you serious? I'm not talking about android! I'm talking about tabs remaining open!

@leocg And? This applies to all browsers on all platforms. Tab buildup.

@leocg I had to in the end. There was a reason I didn't want to which I now can't remember. I think I didn't want to overwrite what I'd created, and merge them. Seems very weird it can't understand it's own bookmarks on import.

@burnout426 both about:startpageshared and about:startpage are permitted in the address bar, but not in the command line. Weird. I thought the command line was just telling it an address to go to.

@leocg The thing is, they build up. My phone browser is Adblocker Free. It has no option so I have to have it remmeber the tabs. But on a phone it's worse, there is no bar of tabs. So without realising, it's loading 150 tabs when I start it!

@leocg There should be. People reinstall all the time. You need to import form a backup. It's like an Englishman understanding French and German, but not English!
