I know that 70.0.3728.106 is the latest stable version, and have it installed on other computers (all Win 10), and previously had 70.0.3728.98 installed here, yet attempting to update to 70.0.3728.106 resulted in an installation of 69.0.3686.47 ! I will leave Opera until such time as they fix their installation and "upgrade" issues. (The Update and Recovery function in the browser never works either--ugh. I always have to go the the Opera Download page to update. And now this!) Since MS Edge is also Chromium, I am forced to use that unless someone can help me discover some sort of workaround.

@xb70 How you are trying to update?

@leocg I have tried to Update & Recovery within Opera numerous times, but it always bombs out. Therefore I used Opera Download, Opera's download page.

@xb70 And the downloaded installer has installed an old version of Opera?

You can use the offline installer to install the latest version.

@leocg I downloaded the installer: OperaSetup.exe from Opera's download page. Can you provide a link to the "offline installer," if different? Does the offline one specify which version you are installing?

You see two offline installers for Windows listed on https://www.opera.com/download - the 32-bit and 64-bit versions. Choose the one you need there.

@xb70 Here you can find the offline packages: https://www.opera.com/pt-br/download?os=windows

They can also be downloaded at the FTP

@leocg Maybe you are in Brazil. You provided the Brazilian page. The US page is this: https://www.opera.com/download?os=windows
Sadly this appears to be the only download option, as it is the same as the one from which I have already downloaded.

@sgunhouse This worked after I scrolled lower on the page and found the Windows 64-bit link, which DID indicate the correct version 70.0.3728.106 and in fact did install that version. I am now back up with Opera. Thank you SGunhouse (and LeoCG). Henceforth I will be aware that one should scroll lower, and find the 64-bit (in my case) version. I do wish that Opera would fix its Update & Recovery function within the browser, which never works for me (although I may work for others and has occasionally worked on another computer).

@xb70 the FTP page does allow one to drill down to the specific version, Windows, and 64-bit, etc. also. Thank you LeoCG. http://get.opera.com/ftp/pub/opera/desktop/
