Check the "Choose where to get apps" function in Settings (Apps/Apps&Features) and set it to 'Anywhere'. If this does not help, simply install a much earlier version of the program, and after installing, enable automatic updating in Opera settings.

Yes I can install Opera_89.0.4447.83_Setup_x64.exe but 1) after installation it constantly requires updates. 2) for some reason this old version doesn't support google chrome plugins, they just won't install

@adroman Can you install any version of Opera? If so, download and run the free Revo uninstaller to uninstall Opera. Be sure to use the option to look for hidden bits and pieces in the Registry, etc. Hopefully it will remove ALL traces of Opera. Then you can try installing the version you want.
Good luck

I keep getting strange errors: Some files are locked in installation folder.
Manually delete the installation folder before trying to install. Also, delete everything in "C:\Windows\temp" and "C:\Users\Thinker\AppData\Local\temp".

@chawoobie Tried 10 times with Revo Uninstaller, used offline / online installer = same result.

Thank you very much!
Tried your method, but the situation is the same.
Have no idea what to do. -

@adroman have the very same problem. Nothing works, even reinstalling the browser from scratch. Gaaaaawd.

Opera can't be installed, can't be uninstalled.
A lot of people have same problem.
Is it not possible to understand why and fix the cause?
I'm willing to provide any diagnostic information.
After all, it is also useful for Opera itself to find out the cause of the error and fix it. -

@adroman Delete everything in "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\temp" and "C:\Windows\temp" and then try to uninstall again. Then, after the install fails, look in those folders for an installer log file and see what it says.

@adroman The Content-Length error is normal. The "failed to find string" errors are normal. "The Installer process did not complete successfully." error is too vague.
