      woohoo 1k post views..

      @nvmjustagirl we tried the Widevinecdm thingy already. No luck

      @zalex108 I've disabled all plugins except site settings sidebar as requested. and @nvmjustagirl after downloading the playify extension, it just redirects me to google play music. Doesn't allow me to actually connect to spotify or play music on spotify. Thanks anyway.

      @zalex108 also repeat what fixing steps? we've tried a lot of things lol

        Try resetting Flash settings in Opera and SSSidebar.
        Restart Opera.
        Set them again.

          When I've been trying that workaround:

          The WiDevine from Chrome was auto erased.
          The WiDevine from OperaStandalone did nothing.

                      @nvmjustagirl We've tried that. But for the sake of it not giving up.. I tried it again and here is the result
                      0_1510779469182_bfd2a7c4-6a5c-482e-bbc2-578915e9582f-image.png

                      @zalex108 Just tried resetting settings. Set everything to block. Exited out the browser. Loaded it back up. Had trouble accessing the site so then I turned everything back on and then got the same message. Wasn't this meaningless considering we've tried fresh installs and I've had this problem since my fresh install?

                              It would be seems that, but in my case it works for some profiles and not for at least one of them "Opera Stable profile test".

                              Tested in a Stable Standalone and in a "Default" Dev install and it works fine.

                                    @nvmjustagirl @zalex108 I was starting to think the same thing that I might have some compatibility issues with Opera. We've tried an array of different options and none worked. Unfortunately, if I can't have full functionailty with this browser, I won't use it. I wanted to try something new but I suppose I'll try Microsoft Edge instead of Firefox. Thank you all for your help and support along the way.

                                        I'd supposed that happening...

                                        @Simonhawk | @nvmjustagirl
                                        I've tested the StandAlone without the Flash command and worked.
                                        Renamed WiDevine folder and stopped.
                                        Reverted WiDevine to the original folder name and worked again... ¬¬

                                        @nvmjustagirl
                                        Tested the extension in the problematic profile and don't play music.

                                        @Simonhawk
                                        Let's see next time...
                                        By the way, you may try to use Opera except for Spotify for a while and test it anyway.

                                        I used to use 2 Opera versions when I had Pandora Radio problems.
                                        Maybe Edge is lightest on resources during that time.

                                        Edited it:
                                        Take a look on Vivaldi browser too.

                                          @zalex108 Spotify works on Vivaldi. I'll give it a try because Edge is making customization difficult. I'm really just looking for a browser that can handle large tabs. I usually always have around 20+ tabs open and just trying what else is out there to see if a certain browser can improve my experience. Thanks though, as I said, I'll definitely give it a try.

                                            I had this problem with a clean installation of Opera and could solve it by copying the 'widevinecdm' folder from a backup to Opera's profile folder.
