@CzechRepublic98 Put compatibility back to default, start Opera in safe mode, reset your flags at the URL opera://flags, close Opera and start Opera normally.

@azimli52 You can make a standalone installation of Opera GX to a folder named "Opera GX" on your desktop and use that till you figure out what's wrong with your normal installation.

@azimli52 You can rename the "Opera GX Stable" folder in both "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software" and "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Opera Software" to "Opera GX Stable old". The start Opera.

@azimli52 For future reference, after you rename your "Opera GX Stable" folders to "Opera GX Stable old", you can delete everything in the new "Opera GX Stable\Default\Sessions" folder and copy all files from the old "Opera GX Stable old\Default\Sessions" folder over to the new, now-empty "Sessions" folder. That will restore your tabs and windows. Method doesn't work well with workspaces though.
