      Got a message after I agreed to install new version:
      c:\users\username\appdata\local\temp\CProgram Files (x86)Opera\installing\installer.exe

      The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely manner.

      And then:

      Failed to obtain administrator-level execution priveleges.

      I resolved it by running it elevated - others might not manage it.

        On any operating system from Vista upwards, anything you install should be as Administrator.

          Yes, I realize this but it wasn't an issue when I upgraded from Opera 18 or even less..
