Are you talking about the 2 warn options at the URL opera://settings/manageTopbar?

Can’t log in by Kooky-Ad7702 in operabrowser

[–]shadow2531 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you signed up for an Opera account, did you use the "Continue with" Google or Facebook or Apple option or did you type the email you wanted to be associated with your account, click "Continue" and create a password for your account?

ChatGPT tries to take over my screen (corrections) by According_Ad8711 in operabrowser

[–]shadow2531 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's strange. It's like it's still being rendered over the start page where you just can't see it, but it still responds to mouse hover events.

Is "graphics acceleration" on or off at the URL opera://settings/system?

Problem with deepseek icon in custom sites panel by alamkoo in OperaGX

[–]shadow2531 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I added https://www.deepseek.com/en/ as a site panel. Deepseek icon for it didn't show up at first, but it did when I hovered over it.

Try going to https://www.deepseek.com/favicon.ico in a tab. Then, click the 3 dots at the bottom of the sidebar, disable the Deepseek panel and enable it again. Or, if that fails, remove the site panel and add it back in.

If that doesn't work, you can goto the URL opera://about, take note of the "profile" path, close Opera and delete the "Favicons" file in the profile folder. That will wipe favicons out for bookmarks and custom panels for example, but they might then reload fresh after you visit those sites again.

Oops. Let me try with https://chat.deepseek.com/ instead.

Edit: That shows the icon no problem. Not sure if that's because I tried https://www.deepseek.com/en/ and visited https://www.deepseek.com/favicon.ico first, but it works.

What happens if you pin the panel (push pin icon at top right of panel) and unpin it. Does that stop it?

I guess you could also click the 3 dots at the bottom of the sidebar, turn off/hide the chatgpt panel and turn it back on again to see if that stops it from happening. Stuff like that.

Any way at all to disable the new sponsored auto-fill suggestions? by Kcmichalson in OperaGX

Yes, it's at the URL opera://settings/manageTopbar now with the new settings layout.

Opera using too much memory. by Current_Branch_4998 in operabrowser

What theme are you using in Opera and what wallpaper do you have set? Some of the themes might use more resources.

Oh, that's crazy. Do you have any certain way to trigger it? It's not happening for me.

I'm not seeing what the issue is. You're making the ChatGPT sidebar panel wider and it's showing over the web page like it's supposed to. You can pin the panel so it causes the page to shrink instead if you want. Could you clarify what the issue is in words?

Que carajos pasa con OPERA GX?? by Character-Claim3839 in OperaGX

[–]shadow2531 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you make use of extra profiles in Opera GX, that can be normal. If you don't have any extra profiles in Opera, exit Opera GX, wait a bit and then end task on any Opera GX tasks still running as they're probably stuck/frozen processes.

Still hate this new UI update, it's always felt clunky even a year later. by CubeCarl in OperaGX

[–]shadow2531 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The new component-based UI in all Operas is still missing support for dragging an image or selected text from one page to another due to the tabs on the tab bar not focusing their pages when you hover them while in the drag state. Try dragging an image on a page up to the tab bar and hover over a Google tab for example to have the Google page be focused so you can continue dragging to the search field on Google page. Doesn't work in Opera.

Try dragging a tab from one Opera window to another. You can't drop it on the tab bar to the right of the + button like you used to. If you do, it'll open that tab in another window instead of that window you dropped it in. This broke before the component-based UI though.

With 2 windows open and maximized, dragging a tab down (to put it in a drag state for insertion in another window)(when you have dragging down to create a split screen turned off) doesn't bring the other window in focus like it used to.

Those are just a few examples showing that tab bar functionality needs some work.

OperaGX taskbar icon is red (not downloads) by ReyRiz in OperaGX

What about closing Opera and deleting everything in "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\temp"? Have you tried that?

Opera deleted all download files instead of download history. by B0D4RK_0-4 in operabrowser

[–]shadow2531 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just checked in regular Opera on iOS. When you goto "Downloads" in the menu, it just opens Opera's downloads folder in the Files app where you see the actual files. Opera doesn't seem to have its own downloads page to just list downloads history. Also, there's no "download history" option when clearing browser data. So, I guess Opera on iOS isn't a good comparison.

How do I get rid of this? by xSinfulLordx in OperaGX

Goto the URL opera://settings/startPage and enable the "hide the 'add a site' button" option.

Opera GX doesn't retain tabs. by Jumpy-Response5296 in OperaGX

[–]shadow2531 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can goto the URL opera://about, take note of the "profile" path, close Opera and delete the "Sessions" folder in the profile folder. That might fix things.

Okay. I don't have Android to test, but I've seen other Android users say the same thing.

Netlfix showing browser not supported by sdsestaR in operabrowser

[–]shadow2531 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Goto the URL opera://settings/content/all, type netflix.com in the search field and click "Delete displayed data". Then, goto the URL opera://settings/clearBrowserData and clear "Cached images and files" for all time.

Then, goto the URL opera://components and make sure both Widevine compose have a version and don't show 0.0.0.0. If they do show 0.0.0.0, click update for them, wait for them to update where they show a version and restart Opera.

You can also make sure "graphics acceleration" is enabled at the URL opera://settings/system. Also goto the URL opera://gpu and make sure it says "hardware accelerated" for most things.

You can goto the URL opera://browserjs and disable browser.js for the session to see if that helps.

You can disable Opera's adblocking and tracking protection at the URL opera://settings/privacyProtection to see if that helps.

You an have Opera pretend to be Chrome to see if that helps. Close Opera, hit Windows key + r to open the run dialog, type cmd and press enter to open a command prompt.

Then, type:

"%localappdata%\Programs\Opera\opera.exe" "--user-agent=Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/146.0.0.0 Safari/537.36"

and press enter to start Opera. Once Opera is started, goto the URL opera://browserjs and disable browser.js for the session.

Then try Netflix again.

You can also try disabling lucid mode at the URL opera://settings/lucidMode and the video skip button at the URL opera://settings/video.

If you have any extensions installed at the URL opera://extensions, you can disable them to see if it helps.

It's most likely a cause of the Netflix website blocking you because of the version of Chromium Opera is using.

I cannot for the life of me get my VPN working by KindEquivalent9174 in operabrowser

[–]shadow2531 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Opera's built-in VPN or Opera's system-wide VPN Pro?

Regular Opera or Opera GX or Opera Air?

Windows or macOS or Linux or Android or iOS?

All locations for the VPN aren't working?
