      For Macs, you can find the autoupdate file that you need to modify by

      right clicking on Opera Developer App -> show package contents -> Contents -> MacOS

            I have this issue (Mac OS X version). On startup, Opera throws an error message that says the application is damaged and should be moved to the trash.

              Hi all, it's known issue: "VPN – there are some issues with service availability, so you’ll notice that there is never-ending ‘Connecting’ status displayed. Our developers are already working on it" - the source link.

                        Thanks Opera team - VPN now connects. Unfortunately "unauthorized access" issue remains.

                                it's not working on

                                Version: 42.0.2374.0
                                Update stream: developer
                                System: Windows 7 64-bit (WoW64)

                                as well.

                                it's constantly connecting/disconnecting and because of that every click takes minutes.

                                  When I run Opera, if I go and clear the history (all but saved passwords) - this will switch off the vpn, then I switch the vpn on (it takes some time) and it doesn't drop, it's stable. This is until I close Opera. After I close and run again I need to do the same thing to make it work otherwise it's flashing blue/amber and takes more than a minute to open a page.

                                  Please fix.

                                  why you always have to break the vpn with every new build?

                                      For all of you who recently have issues with VPN in the developer version: Can you please go to the "Settings / Privacy & security" section, then in the Privacy section, click the button "Clear browsing data" then select only "Third party services data" and clear it? It should fix the issue for you.
