Grayed Out URL Address In Opera – Solved

By Terry Hollett / 11/09/2020 / 1 Comment / Browser, How-To

A bug in Opera. Seems many people at the Opera forum are having this problem. You type in a web address or a search term in the URL address bar and hit enter and… nothing. The words go gray and that’s it. It happens randomly.

So what I do when it happens, I just high-lite the web address or search term I just typed in, then I right-click on it and then Copy.

Then I right-click again and click on Paste and search (or go). It works for me. Hopefully, the next Opera update will fix this problem permanently.

Terry. Have not experienced that problem, BUT, I lost my saved bookmarks on 3 computers. Will limit my bookmarks to just 2 locations. DCT and my email address, which are easy to reinstall, Mindblower!
