      Your profile could not be opened correctly.

      I got the error message shown above and I see in the forum's that others have had it before. Now this is just when I open the browser and it doesn't effect much but it is annoying and makes me think something is wrong because it says there is. I have looked at other people's posts and most don't have a solution there are some videos on how to fix this for chrome but I couldn't find the Opera GX equivalent of the folders they were instructing you to find. I have completely uninstalled and reinstalled Opera GX multiple time in an effort to fix this and nothing does. All other browsers on my computer are just fine and my hard drive has been scanned and has no issues. I can't for the life of me figure this out and any help would be extremely appreciated. I know this was a bit long but I can't have people saying "just restart your computer" or "reinstall Opera".

        @JesseGGKid See Help > About Opera for the location of your active profile - your others should be similar.

          Re: Your profile could not be opened correctly message

          I have exactly the same problem as this one. Opera starts up as normal, then displays a blank screen (with an 'Opera' headline if I'm lucky), displays this message and stays there for ever. Task Manager shows 0% CPU. Sometimes it closes down automatically after a long pause.
          Suggested solutions always involve changing Opera options, or using Help to find where the profiles may be, but if I can't start Opera, I can't use any of those fixes. I can only use another browser (eg. Edge) to look for things.
          I have Uninstalled and Reinstalled 3 times, once finding I had 2 versions simultaneously. My current version, behaving as described above is 124.0.5705.15
          If Opera needs a profile, how do I create one?

              @sgunhouse I can't open Opera, so I can't go to Help – or any other action on this computer that uses
              Opera.
              Can you suggest where I should look for the files?
