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 using ver 39.0.2234.0 in w10 laptop,so far there is no problem with the VPN

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? -

Standalone here (Win10). It's been dead all day (didn't try yesterday). For a friend, too.

@pdn216, I have had this issue as well and after a week it started hanging then stating that the websites I'm trying to reach cannot be found or that it has moved. However, I have installed a VM running Windows 10 and it seems to be working fine, even though the Opera Developer v.39.0.2234.0 on my regular desktop isn't. I'm wondering if the VM is bypassing a blocker that my ISP is preventing me from using Opera's VPN feature? I'm not entirely sure if it is actually my ISP blocking but they are able to do that.

Same here again.
Win 7 64bit Home Edition. Latest Opera dev. version. No extensions.
Writing from Poland.
VPN mark gets blue after opening new private window, then it goes orange when i try to open any site (site cannot be found). -

I'm an expat living in Beijing, China.
The VPN worked well here for the first few days. Then became unreliable (forever to connect), then the forced access through a private browsing window was annoying (all auto logins/cookies are rendered useless), now it doesn't work at all.
I did wonder if the Chinese investment/potential investment in Opera may be the reason. -

I did a clean install of Opera Developer:
UK
Version: 39.0.2234.0 - Opera is up to date
Update stream: developer
System: Windows 10 64-bit (WoW64) Pro 1511Disabled the firewall (for testing purposes), No proxy, not a single extension.
VPN still not working. And it was working perfectly fine in this exact same environment just before the update to 39.0.2234.0.
When I open the private VPN window it always shows Disabled and when I click to enable it connects to Canada as before it was showing connected to Germany. When the issue started a couple of seconds after clicking on a page it was showing an error. Now it will never resolve and form time to time bottom left shows "Sending request to bla-bla-bla".

I've just reinstalled the previous release of Opera Developer from https://get.geo.opera.com/ftp/pub/opera-developer/39.0.2226.0/win/ (64bit version), and can confirm that the VPN works perfectly in Private Browsing on my system (Windows 10). Latest release doesn't. Nothing has changed on my system, so it's clearly something related to this release. Think I'll stick with 39.0.2226.0 for now
