@aquarigger You should be able to check it in Control Panel/Settings > Apps

Lots of users (usually Opera GX specifically) get this problem. Still haven't been able to pin down the cause, but temporarily create a new user account on Windows and try Opera GX there.

The problem seemed like it began from the Widgets folder. You need to Rename or remove the Widgets folder and then open opera again. Let me know if it has worked.

@aquarigger Hi! Could you please add environmental variable like "OPERA_CRASH_EMAIL=your@mail.com"
It will be helpful to get an info from you. I suspect some crash at startup. Thanks! -

@flymah14 Hey! I have few questions regarding this problem. We are trying to solve it Do you have some AntiVirus software installed? Could you please check the installation directory. Default is c:\Program Files\Opera GX\ or c:\Program Files\Opera\ there is a file installer_prefs.json, please open it and check what value do you have of "single_profile": - true or false? Thanks in advance!

@jryc ok so I have an antivirus installed now but when I first tried to download it I didn't have it
the install path that is automatically used is C:\Users\harcs\AppData\Local\Programs and the single_profile value is false
please let me know if there is anything I can do
my computer is a dell and my os is windows
my friends have all been able to install it without a problem and I would very much like to know why it is happening to me -

@burnout426 The widget folder is located in Opera\widgets. You need to locate it and then rename or remove it.

@naheed said in It won't open:
The widget folder is located in Opera\widgets.
@burnout426 So sorry, I think I haven't guided you properly. So, the folder is located in somewhere Program Files or C:\Users > [username] > AppData > Local > Opera > Widgets. Check it and let me know if it helps.

I just installed OperaGX and every time I want to open it, it immediately crashes. I only see the animation thing when I try to open it but then it won't do anything else. I also looked in the Taskmanager wether it was there or not, but I couldn't find anything...
What could I do to fix this? -
