Hi

I downloaded and installed Opera Developer today on my Window 10 Pro PC. The installation was fine and the browser worked. I then turned on the VPN and the browser worked but once I closed the browser and tried to re-start it crashed. It tried to re-start several times and then quit. I am unable to turn off the VPN because the browser crashes every time it is launched.

Do you know where your profile is? I'd try renaming the file "Local State". Naturally this will make Opera forget a number of other settings, but give it a try. If it doesn't work, you can always remove the new file and restore the one you renamed.

If I turn the VPN off before closing Opera then the browser launches without a crash. The crash only happens if I leave the VPN enabled when I exit the browser.

I am having the same problem. I uninstalled it after it crashed and ran it without enabling VPN, and as soon as I enabled VPN and restarted the browser, it crashed again.

1. When i turn On VPN and close Opera Browser without turn Off VPN, it's maked a cycle of starting and crashing, I renamed the file "Local State" as sgunhouse says, and the browser can not start.
2. If i start Opera and close it with VPN turn off ( i enabled VPN in setting), and i renamed the file "Local State" and start Opera again, i saw it make a new file "Local State" and browser start normal, but when i try to turn ON the VPN button at address bar, it's crash.
   P/S: My Opera Develop version: 38.0.2205.0
   My Windows version: Win 7 Ultimate SP 1 x64.

On my Macbook Pro (OS 10.9.5) VPN crashes Opera Developer 38.0.2213.0.

Clicking on the blue VPN label in the address bar instantly crashes the browser, every time.
Please help!
