      Following pigliacci's instructions worked for me. I was able to find the 40.0.2296.0 exe file here: https://www.opera.com/computer/thanks?partner=www&par=id%3D39772%26amp;location%3D412&gaprod=operadeveloper

      Just make sure you have your internet disconnected before you start the install so it doesn't auto-update before you have a chance to change the operaautoupdate.exe filename.

            For Macs, you can find the autoupdate file that you need to modify by

            right clicking on Opera Developer App -> show package contents -> Contents -> MacOS

                  I have this issue (Mac OS X version). On startup, Opera throws an error message that says the application is damaged and should be moved to the trash.

                    Hi all, it's known issue: "VPN – there are some issues with service availability, so you’ll notice that there is never-ending ‘Connecting’ status displayed. Our developers are already working on it" - the source link.

                              Thanks Opera team - VPN now connects. Unfortunately "unauthorized access" issue remains.

                                Looks like the issue could be back again

                                Remains at "connecting"

                                      it's not working on

                                      Version: 42.0.2374.0
                                      Update stream: developer
                                      System: Windows 7 64-bit (WoW64)

                                      as well.

                                      it's constantly connecting/disconnecting and because of that every click takes minutes.

                                        When I run Opera, if I go and clear the history (all but saved passwords) - this will switch off the vpn, then I switch the vpn on (it takes some time) and it doesn't drop, it's stable. This is until I close Opera. After I close and run again I need to do the same thing to make it work otherwise it's flashing blue/amber and takes more than a minute to open a page.

                                        Please fix.

                                        why you always have to break the vpn with every new build?

                                            For all of you who recently have issues with VPN in the developer version: Can you please go to the "Settings / Privacy & security" section, then in the Privacy section, click the button "Clear browsing data" then select only "Third party services data" and clear it? It should fix the issue for you.
