Windows 10 version 1909
Opera version = 70.0.3728.106
Opera will not update.
I am told the latest version is 70.0.3728.144 !! Which means it has not been updating for some time.
Please advise how I can get it to update.

@johnbull44 Now you said what the problem is.

Did you try running the installer?

@leocg He probably didn't. I had this error just yesterday and then ran the installer. After that I could update to [...] 154.

@mathias87 Running the (online) installer should do the upgrade and, usually, fix such issues for next autoupdates.

I downloaded Opera version 70.0.3728.154 and ran it - it installed with no problems.
My Opera was identical to my layout and no data had been lost or moved.
But ! Yes it now updates OK, but says my updated version is 70.0.3728.106 not
70.0.3728.154 !!! What happened to 154 I do not know

Sorry my mistake - it is 160 not 106.
So the running of 154 did solve my problem. it obviously over-wrote any hiccups and kept all my data.
My thanks to all posters.
Problem solved.

Latest update is bugged, you are better off without it IMHO.
