Opera is known for switching the rendering backend from their own Presto engine to a Chromium-based engine. These days, it is a modern web browser with interesting and exclusive features you may or may not like. It comes with a powerful rendering engine which supports all modern web standards. At the moment of this writing, the most recent version of the browser is Opera 49 (see its change log).
Sometimes the browser history and cookies stored in your browser profile can prevent web sites you visit from loading and displaying properly. In this case, you can try to remove this information.
To clear cache and cookies in Google Chrome, do the following.

- The main menu will appear. Click on Settings.
- In Settings, click on the Privacy & security category on the left.
- On the right, click on the Clear browsing data button under Privacy.

Tip: There is a special keyboard shortcut to quickly open the Clear Browsing Data dialog. Press Ctrl + Shift+ Del on the keyboard to open it directly! Also, you can clear lots of other browsing data, such as browsing and download history, passwords, autofill form data, and more.
Now, try to reload the broken web page if you had one. It should return back to normal.
That's it.
