Oh, i didn't install any kind off "cleaner" program.
Well, I installed Opera in the C drive so it's writable, i guess...
And i think they do run in background, i'll try disabling it and get back to you later.

Have you checked? Remember to check the profile folder, where Opera stores its settings, and not the install folder.

Yep, The profile one which is in C:\Users\something\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable right?
It's writable.

Ok then. Just to cover all bases, can you try to save a page in there using Opera?

Yes I can save there, even copy and paste.

Ok, let's try one more thing: Download, if needed, latest Opera and run Opera's installer, click on "options" and change the "install for" option to standalone/usb (you may need to change the install path).

Open that Opera, change a few settings and check if the changes are kept when you close Opera.

Ok, so I reinstall Opera and install it as you said and now I install it on the D drive, then after I tried restarting my laptop it kept the settings so I guess it's fixed now. Thank you so much for helping.
Oh and I wanna ask, is this some kind of a bug or something?

So the problem seems to be access to users/username/appdata/roaming/opera software/opera stable as you are able to save your settings with the profile folder placed somewhere else.

Yeah, i still have the same problem. I'm running Windows 10 Pro AU x64. I tried Opera Stable & Beta, but everytime i restart Opera, I'm logged out of all websites and also all plugin settings are gone..

Can you please check Settings > Privacy & Security, scroll to the 'Cookies' section and make sure that you have the setting "Allow local data to be set (recommended)" enabled? If it is so, perhaps there is an issue with saving your profile data - then perhaps steps as indicated above would help.
