      OK I found the problem.

      After I reverted to the 122 version, I changed the angle flag from OPENGL to DRD11 and now it works fine in the updated version.

      Ok, I did that, and Opera One installed correctly. Couple things:; A few of my Speed Dial icons that have multiple links in them have empty images in the icon, and the other question, after you installed O 123, have you tried setting the Angle flag back to OPENGL?? (I tried setting the ANGLE back to OPENGL and the same grey screen reappears, making Opera in operable. I will just wait until the next iteration

      Here's an image of one of them

        You also can modify the config file:

        -Close Opera
        -Open "Local State" with text editor
        -Find string "use-angle@1" and change it to "use-angle@0"
        -Save it and start Opera

          I think I will wait for the next update, instead of trying to correct it myself. O 122 works just fine for now

                I am using the version 122 with OPENGL because the versions 123 and 124 won't work with OPENGL and they lag too much under DRD11

                So waiting on an update. I have to reinstall the 122 version every time I close Opera as it runs the update by itself every time

                  @ngocevski rename or delete "opera_autoupdate.exe" in "C:\Program Files\Opera\autoupdate"

                      Same issue here with 123 update!

                      A work around for now is to downgrade to 122 (you can find that here https://get.opera.com/ftp/pub/opera/desktop/122.0.5643.92/). For Windows you want Opera_122.0.5643.92_Setup.exe and just run the exe. After installation immediately close the browser and go to your opera installation folder and rename opera_autoupdate.exe as @KotTHECat suggested.

                      Waiting for future update that fixes this. Huge F up!

                        No fix for the moment, any way to know when it will be fixed?

                            @leocg I am using version 122 with OPENGL for the moment waiting for the fix in the latest versions.

                            If I change to DRD11 the latest version works but lags way too much
