      I'm on Opera version 30.0.1835.146, running Windows 8.1 64-bit
      Silverlight was loading fine as of yesterday but now I just get a gray screen that says 'Couldn't load plug-in'.
      I have the latest version of Silverlight installed. I tested a few sites that run Silverlight and I get the same message on all of them.
      Anyone else experiencing this or know of any fixes?
      Thanks

            Oh weird. I restarted Opera and now it's working again. Guess I should have tried that first. 😕

            Thanks!
