@ligardi said in Opera won't load anything on startup:

intel hd graphics 4000

You could try the latest driver from Intel if you want. It's here.

To rule out profile issues, you could download the Opera installer, launch it, click "options", set "install path" to a folder on your desktop, set "install for" to standalone installation and install. If it works in that Opera, it's something wrong with your normal Opera profile, will remain when you uninstall Opera and reinstall if you don't tell the uninstall to delete it.

Also, see https://peter.sh/experiments/chromium-command-line-switches/#disable-gpu. You could launch a command prompt and execute:

"C:\Program Files\Opera\launcher.exe" --disable-gpu

If that fixes it, it's an issue with your HD 4000 drivers.

Thank you @burnout426, I already update my HD4000 and it is now using its latest version. And your command line suggestion also didn't work for me. It stays the same. Just a blank start page tab, can't even open settings etc. Do you have another advice?

Did you try the standalone installation setup that I suggested?

@burnout426 I installed it on my USB as a standalone installation, as you suggested, good sire. But it changes nothing. What do you guys think?

p.s if you think antivirus causes this problem, I do not have any antivirus programs installed, Windows Defender is enough for me.

Create a new user account on your computer to test with. Log into that account to see if Opera works there. If so, at least you'd know it's limited to something in your normal user account.

@sgunhouse Thank you for your reply. I did even try today's update (april 8th 2019). And the situation seems the same to me. Do you have other suggestions?
