My newly installed Opera on an M2 Mini would not remember passwords. I tried the usual preferences and directly adding website/username/password.

So I decided to delete the app and reinstall fresh. When I launch the installer, it says No Internet Connection even though there is clearly and internet connection because I downloaded the installer.

Searching for posts about this, most talk about getting that message when going to a website, and they suggest changing checking to see if VPN is on, etc. - they assume Opera is already installed.

I my case, it won't install. But I Have and internet connection - hence this post via the Brave browser.
