@octex4 said in Why some websites not opening?:

(for not create new topic) For me - not exactly not opening - but i observed about couple days (i guess after recently Opera update) that some sites become opening really long time. But strangeness in that this behavior can catch only if you relatively long time not visited such site, whereas in the same Opera session (if you finally open this site) - further it will opens \ refreshing normally speed.
And, maybe this relate only to links from user "start page" main buckmarks icons, i'm not sure (did not tested enough).

Ofcourse initially i thought this is just something with my internet, since very similar behavior to some classic inet problems, but when it repeat couple days i start to doubts. Then i tried open it in other browser (Edge) - and voila - it opened immediately.

Then i did try to clear browsing data - it not helps. (But i did not chek with delete cookies frankly, just did not want to re-enter in bunch acc's).
And again - it's just for some sites. For another some sites opening works with usual speed. But i would be not reported if it would the same in other browser. And if it would be just a bit longer than usual, but it occurs for about 1 minute in described problematic case, that abnormally long.

Considering that sites still opening in the end, this is not critical, but just FYI.
If I dig up some other pattern, i'll share.

Wanted to say - sorry false call, it seems was my local problem nonetheless. (now works ok)

@octex4 said in [Compilation] Discussions on mouse not working correctly in address bar:

Hi
Recently found problems with mouse cursor functionality inside address bar. With first opening some site it's ok, but after some actions at that page\ some surfing for example reload page, can observe some problems with selecting words in address bar, like become unable auto-selecting word by double clicking, and manual selecting by mouse cursor resp. As well dropdown menu by right mouse button (being placing cursor in address bar) stops to appear by click.
I did check in other browser like Edge, no issue there.
Win10, Opera v110.0.5130.49

Seems fixed now (111.0.5168.25)

Added: Need note, keyboard functionality still works with that

+1 for fix about this issue. Not critical though, but annoying a bit.

Yep the same. (PC Win10)
Although if re-enable VPN in settings, icon appears again, so long as VPN stay ON.

Ok offline v86 installer solved problem. (In principle I did not doubt in it, just wanted to deal with issue inside the program. But ok, nvm.)

@leocg said in Opera 85 to 86 update issue:

@octex4 Try cleaning user and windows temp folders and,then, run the installer.

Installer - do you mean, downloaded latest version of offline installer ?

Some strange thing, during checking Opera says that new version available (v86), but after restart i still see it as 85, then auto-checking again and so on.
First time i did notice it about month ago, but decided to ignore it, but it's still reproducible.

That's a secure page, but since the link to the pdf is insecure, when I click the link to download the pdf, Opera attempts to download it but blocks it. So, I didn't get any percent completion. So, I clicked the badge at the left of the address field, went to "site settings", and set "insecure content" to "allow". Then, the PDF downloaded in full no problem.

Hmm.. thank you, yes, it works via such way.
But, strange. I never had such probs with downloading at this and similar sites before, as i said initially (and i never used Site Settings). Do something was changed in Opera engine recently (security related), or what ?

Besides, as you mention:

when I click the link to download the pdf, Opera attempts to download it but blocks it. So, I didn't get any percent completion.

nonetheless i observe differ behavior (as i describd already).

And need say i almost nothing been change in Opera settings.
So, maibe some issue in Opera.

Because, if it normal (as it should be) - then every time appeal to site settings section for properly download pdf etc , that some nightmare lol.

Hi

I have the same problem at many sites, did notice it started about couple weeks ago.
Now Opera version is 85 (updated just now, but all the same), and before was v84, with this problem.

As example, this page https://kilohearts.com/products/multipass , when i try to download "Multipass - PDF manual".
I disable in opera auto-open built-in pdf reader, so, by click at link it open to download pdf, and next occurs properly downloading but with hang at 100%.
Also, i tried to select "save as" and download - all the same.
But, if i copy link and past in new Opera window - it downloaded properly, without hang in end.

Also, need note that after such failed download (by normal click), and forced cancelled at end, if i try to click to link again - nothing happens, even if i close Opera and start again and open this page with pdf - clicking at link will not to do anything (download window will not opens).

Frankly, i'm use Opera about decade, and first time see such behavior.

Any solutions ?

@ftfire said in Opera Won't Open:

This work for me. Go to your profile folder (My is for example here C:\Users\Ohaha\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable)

Delete files:
History
History Provider Cache
History-journal
Restart Opera.

Yes, that helps it seems, ty.
But again, such issue first time i see.

Got today the same problem, with a bunch of strange symptoms - opera won't open at click to icon (at the same time, a bunch of dead processes accumulate in the list of running programs ), sometimes it launchs finally (UI is opens), but no speed dial shortcuts, and no browsing history (though bookmarks section still comtain\show all bookmarks properly).
How a much years i use opera, such madhouse first time.
Latest version \ Win10
Tried "cleaning browsing data" - not helps. Moreover the icon of cleaning continued spinning endlessly after cleaning process, so, forced to close browser without cleaning end alert.
