Read more In the last few days, I have seen several reports of YouTube videos or Shorts displaying a black screen on Opera GX. In most cases, the audio runs fine, but for a few, there’s no sound as well on YouTube. Additionally, some see a white glow on YouTube in Opera GX!The underlying causes for YouTube not working on Opera GX include issues with hardware acceleration, conflicting extensions, corrupt browsing data, problems with the installed GPU driver, and misconfigured settings.To start with, I recommend you update Opera GX to the latest version, use another YouTube account, or switch the browser profile. If YouTube shows a black screen when opting for Full-Screen mode in Opera GX, first press T to enable Theatre mode and then F for the Full-Screen mode. The workaround seemingly worked for many.How do I fix Opera GX’s black screen while running YouTube?1. Disable hardware accelerationLaunch the browser, click on the Opera menu near the top left, and select Settings.Scroll down, click on Advanced to view more settings, and then turn off the toggle for Use graphics acceleration when available.For video-playing issues, whether with YouTube or any streaming platform, your primary approach should be to disable hardware acceleration in Opera GX. This also works when Opera GX is not streaming Discord.2. Disable conflicting extensionsOpen the browser, click the Opera menu, select Extensions from the list of options, and then again choose Extensions.Click the Disable button under the first extension here. Relaunch the browser and verify whether YouTube videos show a black screen on Opera GX. If the problem is fixed, again open Extensions, click the Remove button under the one you just disabled, and confirm the change. In case the problem persists, disable other extensions individually and check for improvements.3. Clear the browsing dataLaunch Opera, and press Ctrl + Shift + Del to open the Clear browsing data window.Choose All time from the Time

As well when I'm moving, as I really can use it as a mini laptop for Linux. And yeah, one of the first web browsers I looked for was Opera GX... So +1 for Opera GX here!!! VidimusWolf last edited by No support for Linux... Disappointing, but I hope they are working on it! Will keep using Chrome for now. Thing is, my personal PC runs on Windows, but unless I can migrate to a single browser for all my devices, my work laptop included (running Linux), then I just can't justify migrating to Opera GX.

Or at least it wasn't, I haven't checked if things have changed but before you would have to build Chromium with hardware acceleration enabled.As to the ads, the browser would require to have an ad blocker automatically built in.But yeah, I've been pretty busy with work. I haven't checked out Firefox GX, but those Firefox-gx guys should add my suggestions if they haven't already. illogicalfallacy last edited by This post is deleted!

And When i press f11 it just shows my desktop. erkite last edited by leocg As of yesterday, when I launch Opera GX, the startup animation and sound play but the tabs are all transparent. I cannot interact when them on my screen but they still are there. For example, I can right-click on my taskbar icon for Opera GX and launch Twitch and it will. I can hear the videos and everything but I cannot see it. I've tried deleting my session files and restarting my computer but to no avail. ineedhelp last edited by I think I found a solution, also it worked for me too so try this:@elrroccopaDo Windows Key + R and paste -"%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Opera GX\launcher.exe" -uninstall (with the -uninstall, don't delete anything)Make sure that Delete my Data is UNCHECKED and uninstall the app.Download an old offline installer from the links - 64 bit OR 32 Bit: x64 - x32 - from the internet and run the installersDo Windows Key + R and paste -"%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Opera GX\73.0.3856.438"From there delete the opera_autoupdater.exe, and do the same from 73.0.3856.438_0 or similar if they existRun Opera GX normally gamerytgg last edited by When I go to Opera GX, it collapses and does not expand. what to do?? erkite @ineedhelp last edited by @ineedhelp said in Opera GX not showing up!:"%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Opera GX\73.0.3856.438"Thank you so much! elgiearnn last edited by I found something that actually works for me. so mine also shows only on the taskbar but the browser doesn't show up on my screen. so what i did is i open another application and then i pressed windows + arrow key left or right so that the app that i recently opened will be put on the right or left half of the screen.
