@leocg Did you use Opera's VPN or did you just open it normally?

@yoober69 Both example links were fine here too.

VPN suggests it is some external program on your computer, as when the VPN is enabled external programs won't see the website addresses you are accessing. No idea beyond that.

@leocg It worked completely fine yesterday, I tried the DNS over HTTPS setting but it just dosen't open the search engine (duckduckgo), the Google DNS setting works but the Cloudflare (all options of it) dosen't. Also, i can't respond that fast because of the new member thing so i apologize.

@sgunhouse I added Opera to my exceptions list on my antivirus, still dosen't work.
Do you mind listing a few programs that may cause that problem?

@yoober69 Firewall/internet security software would be #1. Any other sort of network filtering software, like ad blockers or parental controls.

@sgunhouse Okay, i'll try disabling something on my pc (firewall, antivirus), I'll update you if it worked.

@yoober69 Saw that in your earlier post.. Some update to the filter list, presumably.

Can't really be anything in Opera itself if it fails in a private window (with all extensions disabled) but works when the VPN is enabled, so it has to be something interfering with your network traffic.

A VPN prevents network sniffers from seeing what sites you are accessing, but makes no changes in how Opera itself works. Opera's VPN - since it is inside Opera rather than part of your system's network stack - even prevents filtering software from seeing what you are looking at. A filter appliance in your network should act the same for all browsers, while a fiter on your system can tell which browser is being used and might react differently on that basis. All of that leads to the conclusion above - a firewall or other filtering software on your system.

@sgunhouse I allowed Opera access to both Internet In and Internet Out. Still dosen't work. I also can't open .org sites, .net sites, only .com

Do you have Kaspersky installed?

Do you have NordVPN installed (even if it's disabled)?
