OPERA Developer Version 39.0.2234.0 VPN ISSUES

I have been using the Opera Browser Developer version for Windows for a couple of weeks now with no issues, including the excellent VPN. Then something changed which caused the VPN to only work in Private Windows, this was not an issue for a few days, until this evening when my MENU button turned red and asked me restart Opera to update it. Since I did this, when I launch a new Private Window and switch on the VPN, I can no longer get on any websites, I see a message:
This site can’t be reached - The web page at http://www.example.com might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.Can anyone help or advise what has happened? With the VPN disabled, websites ARE accessible. I even tried uninstalling it and reinstalling the developer version from the original download I had but I suspect upon reinstall it calls upon the most current version of the developer app and therefore I have the same issue. Perhaps it is just a bug that needs ironing out. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks.

I'm having the exact same problem. The VPN button turns blue and says it has connected to a server when you launch a private window but the button turns orange and says "Connecting..." whenever you try to navigate to a website.

Same here. The VPN button won't connect most of the time. When it does, I get the same "The webpage at http://xxx might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address" when I try to load any web page.
Perhaps using the developer version is kind of like being part of the Windows Insider Program...

Hi everyone, I have tested it further and I get the same issue with all 4 VPN locations. I have the same problem when enabling the VPN, it is blue to begin with and as soon as I type a URL and hit enter, the button turns orange and then displays the error connecting to the website, if I then click the VPN button the status just says Connecting...
What I don't understand is what have Opera changed in the past couple of days to cause this to happen?! Maybe they'll fix it if enough people experience it too. Thanks for your posts guys. -

Same here, everything works without VPN, private windows, opera turbo, regular windows, but if I switch the VPN on I have the same experience as above.

I'm on the Fast Ring of the Windows Insider Program and that sounds about right.

Opera always sucks at these things...They introduce something which is in-fact really nice and great and then they break it and don't bother fixing it or even trying to help.
I guess VPN is over now...This is now officially not working at all. BOOOOOOOOOOO going to back to using normal VPN

still experiencing the same problem here... when in a Private Window, with VPN On, it doesn't matter if Canada, Germany, Netherlands or USA location is chosen for the VPN, I cannot load any webpages in the outside world, the following prompt appears:
This site can’t be reached
The webpage at http://www. $ .com/ might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.
The browser was recently updated to build 2234:
Version information
Version: 39.0.2234.0 - Opera is up to date

On the other system (Win7) it works fine.

I've just checked and VPN is working here. I'm using 39.0.2234.0 on Windows 10 build 14342 if that matters.
To try to help figuring out what may be happening, I think people could answer a few questions:
What OS are you using?
From where are you accessing?
Do you use any firewall, anti-virus, anti-malware or similar software?
Do you use a proxy to access the internet? -
