@heiribuenzli i dunno if this will help, try this

go to your opera settings - hardware acceleration

toggle - Disable/Enable to see if problem goes away..

@leocg Found problem in Opera Dev 68.0.3581.0

pip works while the flag is @ default or enabled

opera://flags/#video-pop-out-surface-layers

Flag is called - (Use surface layers in Video Pop-out)

But when the flag is disabled to get the old pip back..

the popout is black screen sound works

Note - Opera Stable 66.0.3515.44 pip old style works fine with the flag disabled..

So Opera Dev still has problem

Same here, Looks like desktop is default for snapshot d/l..

@mathias87 said in Deleted desktop icon back on every start:

Hmm...I replaced the existing link sticked to my task bar with the link Opera creates every time I start it.
Seems like it stopped creating a link now.

So, you're saying you unpinned the Opera tasbkar icon you had, started Opera with the desktop shortcut that Opera keeps creating, and right-clicked on that taskbar button when Opera started and choose to pin that? Then, you deleted the desktop icon and it doesn't come back now?

thats what i was thinking if only they had copy and pasted the icons properties..

wow glad its Solved !..

@sandyg

Example

right click > click properties

at the end of launcher.exe" tap space bar then --disable-update

to make a short cut to installer

go to wherever the installer file is - right click it - then in contex menu - click the Send to Desktop (create shortcut

@gridsleep345 Does it still happens after the required steps

ya might try this to see if it helps..
Settings - Left pane (check the box) Show advance settings - Browser - Right pane scroll down to System - (uncheck box)
Use hardware acceleration when available

Btw - all the links ya posted play here in win 10 & 8.1 with latest version 52.0.2871.99

@burnout426 try this.. go to your profile - click the three dot thingy on right side - scroll down to the word called (Posts) - click on it..

@zestinpeace check this flag called -

Use surface layers in Video Pop-out and make sure it it is Not (Disabled)

if it is - set the flag to (Default)

and relaunch browser then try Video pop out again..

if that default setting does not work - set it to Enable

for me default or enable works for me..

Note - it will be the new PIP (AKA Video Pop-out).. Old style pip is gone for now, unless ya install older version of opera..

Also note if ya got dual graphics.. then the new PIP may not work but i think the new opera dev may have fixed it.. not sure if fix has reached the opera stable tho..

@y0y0 burnout can explain to you better than i.. just follow what he says..+please

@burnout426 yoyo wants to rename his profile folder for now.. please tell him what directory the profile folder is in.. *thankyou in advance..

just guess 'n profile folder may be here..

in your windows explorer go back to

C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable

click the last directory \Opera Stable

or look in this directory for profile folder..

C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Opera Software\Opera Stable

or maybe its here

C:\Program Files\Opera Software\Opera Stable

@leocg said in Opera spamming Disney crap. Can't turn off intrusive adverts.:

or rename your profile folder to (profile old) and restart opera and opera will automactic make the profile folder..

thats to make sure the profile folder is not corrupted..
