      I'm having the opposite problem. When I open Opera Developer 39 (the latest update, whatever it is), there's no VPN button, but the VPN seems automatically switched on in the normal windows. I'm in the UK but previously set it to Netherlands, and it's stuck on Netherlands so I can't watch the BBC. To do so I have to open a Private window with VPN switched off!

        My vpn was not working on one pc with avast antivirus, I then disabled avast, then the vpn immediately started working. I then uninstalled avast and enabled windows defender and the vpn is still working fine.

          I believe the problem is caused by Avast's SecureLine VPN component. I did the following and now Opera's VPN works:

          1. Open Avast from the system tray.
          2. Click on the Settings cog in the top right-hand corner.
          3. Select Tools from the menu on the left.
          4. Disable SecureLine VPN.
          5. Reboot.

                Did not help.

                  Had the same problem. When you upgrade you have to reactivate VPN in settings.

                        The main reason I started using Opera again was for the VPN. It has been broken since the last update, a few weeks ago. I might as well go back to Chrome...

                              From USA November 8, 2016

                              Version: 43.0.2403.0 - Opera is up to date
                              Update stream: developer
                              System: Mac OS X 10.12.1 64-bit

                              Attempting to activate VPN yields a Connecting... indication. It never connects.
                              Virtual Location Menu only includes Canada

                              My primary interest in Opera is the VPN. Worked well up until a few weeks ago.

                                Is there any understanding of why VPN might be dropping my connection about every 10 minutes today?
