Cookies are small data files that store information in connection with a website. For example, a cookie may be created to store the contents of a shopping basket or to confirm that you are logged in as you browse the pages of a site.
Cookies can also be used to construct a profile of your browsing habits and are therefore regarded by some as a privacy issue. Setting cookie preferences gives you control of how Opera handles them. The default setting is to accept all cookies. To set your cookie preferences:
Type [*.] before the domain name to create an exception for an entire domain name. Creating an [*.]opera.com cookie exception will apply to pages such as blogs.opera.com and addons.opera.com. IP addresses can also be added as exceptions.
JavaScript is a scripting language used to add functions to pages, such as manipulating browser windows. In rare cases, JavaScript may be used intrusively to perform certain actions you may find annoying. For these cases, you can turn it off completely. If you do, some pages will not work as designed. To change JavaScript settings:
Some sites may ask to use your location to provide localized features, such as reviews for nearby shops or coupons from businesses located in your area. To do this, these sites may ask you to allow geolocation on the page. You can choose whether or not to share your location when browsing. Opera will not share this information without your permission.
If you connect a musical instrument digital interface (MIDI) device to your computer, such as a keyboard or controller, some sites and web apps may ask to have exclusive access to the device. For example, a developer may make a new synthesizer available on the web that you can use with your keyboard.
Opera will try to distinguish pop-ups that you have requested (login pages, for example) from pop-ups launched automatically from websites, such as advertising. By default, Opera will block pop-ups you have not requested. You can control how Opera handles pop-ups. To change pop-up settings:
i was running iis on windows 10, and a vmware vm running ubuntu for my database. It ran flawlessly until i upgraded to windows 11. Now only opera can log in. Chrome and edge cannot. In fact they pretty much hang the web server. Any reason why this would be? Chrome and edge can load the login page ok, but the login ability is not working and the browser completely hangs
i removed IIS, i had issues with php being installed, couldnt remove, couldnt install properly, i removed it from my path, i put back in IIS, and cgi for iis, manually installed php, and finally working. what a pain. now i can log in with other browsers
