          Meaning that you can't enable it on settings? Or that it doesn't connect?

              @msh603799 So something is blocking the connection to the VPN server.

              It can be a security software in your computer or even your ISP.

                    Unfortunately, even if Opera did that, the authorities would probably soon block that VPN as well, since they seem already determined to block Opera's present VPN. Blocking a VPN simply means locally blocking the various portal IPs used to connect to the VPN servers, so that unless the VPN has a vast array of possible portal IPs available or can dynamically alter its IPs somehow at both the user software and the portal, it can be blocked by a censor willing to sniff out its portal IPs. Sniffing out a VPN IP from a browser simply requires installing a copy of the browser on a test system, activating its VPN mode, and packet-sniffing the IP(s) being contacted.

                    Opera alone can decide whether or not they can provide a more extensive, covert kind of VPN support in their browser; but frankly, it may not be economical for them to provide it. You may be better served by seeking out a more robust, system-level VPN with deeper cloaking techniques though it may not be free.

                      Try if VPN extensions fits your needs.
