          i am facing the problem too for few days.
          the problem get solved if i Disable the option "Block third-party cookies
          Prevent third-party websites from saving and reading cookie data", and reload the page again. but after if i again Enable it, the page shows me "ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS".its really annoying. same thing i faced while browsing Gmail.but Gmail works perfectly now. whats the issue??

            No it does not. One of the suggestions to get it to work but try it in VPN mode but that doesn't work either.

              Thanks for the clarification. I clicked on it and then on the Update button but it finished as fast as I clicked it, so I don't think it updated anything. And I still have the same problem with Google Photos.

                    Have the same issue for several weeks!
                    Tried everything what was suggested above, didn't help.
                    Have to use another browser.
                    I've found this page https://photos.google.com/browser-not-supported/

                      As it happens Google's own Chrome was hit this same way. Not every user seems to have the problem - Opera, Chrome, and all Chromium based browsers run into this. But not all of their users experience it. Sadly, Google, Opera, etc., have responded poorly to this bug.

                      WORKING SOLUTION:

                      You want to go to Settings, Content, Cookies, and instead of a destructive clearing, you want to Allow:

                      GoTo opera://settings/content/cookies?search=Content+settings

                      OR

                      opera://settings/content?search=Content+settings
                      (then find Cookies)

                      OR

                      Goto opera://settings
                      (then look for Content Settings, then Cookies)

                      Clicky triangle to open Cookies panel.

                      Under the Allow section, select ADD.

                      Refer to the tab where you got your original ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS error.
                      You'll see a URL just below the error. That's what you plug into the Cookies-Allow section.

                      We should not have to fudge around like this, but, blame the Chromium makers and Google:

                      In the case of our GMail problem you want to Allow mail.google.com
                      Or if it's an accounts problem, then allow accounts.google.com
                      You get the idea.

                          veganamigansagan Thank you so much. Finally a solution that works and works more than once. I hate it when I have to use a different browser other than Opera. Opera is the best without a doubt and seems to get better all the time. Keep up the good work guys.
