      I confirm. I'm getting so tired of this they release an update without ANY basic checks whether it works or not on Linux system. This is ridiculous.

      sudo snap revert opera
      

      saved the day for me

        Hey Guys,

        Apologies for that issues. Just wanted to tell you, we're aware of this and work on the fixes.

        We aim to release new version on snap store, hopefully somewhere next week.

              @Mlipka Is there any update to when a stable update will be available on SNAP?
              I am running Kubuntu 24.04 but don't care to update to 25.10 just yet. Thank you.

                I don't have updates yet.
                Developers are still investigating this issue as apparently the last fix didn't fix the problem.

                I should know more in upcoming days.

                In the meantime, did you try to use older versions? For example 127.

                  @Mlipka on non-snap version all work correct, Only on snap version is problem.
                  I have installed both version. APT and snap

                    Any update on this bug? To this day I still can't use Opera on my Ubuntu which kinda sucks since Opera is always my default browser.
                    My Fedora is running flatpak Opera with no issues.
                    I already removed and installed Opera via snap a bunch of times and still the same error.
                    I tried manually soft linking the files and still crashes:

                    $ ls -lZ /home/<user>/snap/opera/455/.config/gtk-3.0/
                    total 0
                    lrwxrwxrwx 1 <user> admin ? 39 May 18 13:31 bookmarks -> /home/<user>/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks
                    lrwxrwxrwx 1 <user> admin ? 37 May 18 13:31 gtk.css -> /home/<user>/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css
                    lrwxrwxrwx 1 <user> admin ? 42 May 18 13:31 settings.ini -> /home/<user>/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini

                    $ ln -s /home/<user>/.config/gtk-3.0/colors.css /home/<user>/snap/opera/455/.config/gtk-3.0/

                    $ ls -la /home/<user>/snap/opera/455/.config/gtk-3.0/
                    total 8
                    drwxr-xr-x 2 <user> admin 4096 May 19 10:05 .
                    drwx------ 8 <user> admin 4096 May 18 13:31 ..
                    lrwxrwxrwx 1 <user> admin 39 May 18 13:31 bookmarks -> /home/<user>/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks
                    lrwxrwxrwx 1 <user> admin 40 May 19 10:05 colors.css -> /home/<user>/.config/gtk-3.0/colors.css
                    lrwxrwxrwx 1 <user> admin 37 May 18 13:31 gtk.css -> /home/<user>/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css
                    lrwxrwxrwx 1 <user> admin 42 May 18 13:31 settings.ini -> /home/<user>/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini

                    I don't get the file not found error but Opera still doesn't open and shows some of the same errors:

                    $ journalctl -f

                      @Jaroslav68 Me too. I was using Opera and it being updated several times a week, when it just failed to load. I tried to re-download, wouldn't work. I tried to uninstall, would not do it cleanly. Several attempts at a fresh download and it downloaded a folder with some files, but no "setup" file. And that's as far as it gets. I see several people have this or similar problems. The only saving grace is that Firefox have put a VPN into their browser, but it is not as good as the Opera browser, which I was getting very used to. Please advise how I can download a fresh Opera browser. My machine is a Dell 7020 running Linux Ubuntu. Many thanks. GJ.
