      I cannot open Opera GX profiles or refresh the icons. Profiles are very important for my work, as I have many social media platforms spread across each profile that require signing in. When I attempt to open them, this error comes up:

      1baa6165-df3e-46e8-976b-94fec89e8e2d-image.png

      I've already attempted to revert to a previous version of Opera GX by uninstalling and reinstalling but it hasn't worked. I've managed to copy and back-up the profiles in the _side_profiles folder in case I need to fully uninstall (including personal data), but something tells me that still won't work.

      I've seen that the 24H2 version appears to cause a lot of problems, but my issues don't really match other existing forums.

        @Called2Assist Edit the shortcuts and make them point to opera.exe

              @leocg They're present on the taskbar, but not the desktop.

                @Called2Assist Open Windows Explorer and type %appdata% on the address bar.

                Then open Microsoft folder > Internet Explorer > Quick Launch > User Pinned > Taskbar

                Right click on the shortcut > Properties. In target field change from launcher.exe to opera.exe
