@hucker Opera doesn’t currently have this “stay resident” feature in the same way Edge’s Startup Boost works as it seems like Opera hasn’t prioritized this yet.

But I agree, this would make a great option to have as a native feature, like a simple "keep in memory" toggle or something like that

@hucker The problem is that Microsoft builds Edge with deep Windows integration in mind, so it works more efficiently. Other browsers like Opera, Chrome, or Firefox are more "cross-platform focused," so they don’t lean as hard into Windows-exclusive system hooks.

Also, Opera likely limits this by design to avoid complaints about background processes being too active.

@korol78 if you're using a mouse, hover over the link you want to open and do a middle mouse click (press down on the mouse wheel) and it should open the page on a new tab. You can also right click and select open on a new tab.

@genegold Possible Fix:
On your original device, visit sync.opera.com or go to opera://settings/syncSetup. Ensure that all the data you want (bookmarks, passwords, etc.) shows as synced.

If it doesn't, re-login will refresh the connection.
