Did you try to copy the "WidevineCdm" folder Google Chrome, before or after you tried to run the web player. Only ask this because I think a few of those "components" don't come readily available as soon as you install the browser, some of them are only added when you try to use a website where they are needed.
Although i had this problem on Windows 10 first, on my work machine with windows 7, I also had to apply the "fix" of copying the files. Please compare the properties of your folder to the image I'm placing below:
How many files and folders does it contain?
Note that if you have a Opera 64bit version the files you have to copy must be from a Chrome 64bit as well...
Best regards.

Also on the "WidevineCdm" folder thingy.. On a portable install their are (2) "WidevineCdm" folders For the 32 bit
This is where you will find them.. Example :(1) C:\Opera\profile\data\WidevineCdm\1.4.8.1000_platform_specific\win_x86
(2) C:\Opera\49.0.2725.34\WidevineCdm_platform_specific\win_x86
Example 2 - 64bit
(1) C:\Opera\profile\data\WidevineCdm\1.4.8.1000_platform_specific\win_x64
(2) C:\Opera\49.0.2725.34\WidevineCdm_platform_specific\win_x64
You can install The Portable to C: drive Instead of to a usb stick !

At this point, try disabling. all extensions, except, "site settings sidebar".
To be able to use Chrome extensions, you have to download "download Chrome extensions" extension from Opera's Addons.

@nvmjustagirl we tried the Widevinecdm thingy already. No luck
@zalex108 I've disabled all plugins except site settings sidebar as requested. and @nvmjustagirl after downloading the playify extension, it just redirects me to google play music. Doesn't allow me to actually connect to spotify or play music on spotify. Thanks anyway.
@zalex108 also repeat what fixing steps? we've tried a lot of things lol

Try resetting Flash settings in Opera and SSSidebar.
Restart Opera.
Set them again.

When I've been trying that workaround:
The WiDevine from Chrome was auto erased.
The WiDevine from OperaStandalone did nothing.

@nvmjustagirl We've tried that. But for the sake of it not giving up.. I tried it again and here is the result
@zalex108 Just tried resetting settings. Set everything to block. Exited out the browser. Loaded it back up. Had trouble accessing the site so then I turned everything back on and then got the same message. Wasn't this meaningless considering we've tried fresh installs and I've had this problem since my fresh install?

It would be seems that, but in my case it works for some profiles and not for at least one of them "Opera Stable profile test".
Tested in a Stable Standalone and in a "Default" Dev install and it works fine.

@nvmjustagirl @zalex108 I was starting to think the same thing that I might have some compatibility issues with Opera. We've tried an array of different options and none worked. Unfortunately, if I can't have full functionailty with this browser, I won't use it. I wanted to try something new but I suppose I'll try Microsoft Edge instead of Firefox. Thank you all for your help and support along the way.
