      I have version 12.17.1863 in Windows 7 32bit in the UK (EU).
      I am having to submit this in Firefox because Opera has become unusable since General Data Protection Regulations came into force. To access any website I have to accept dozens of dialogs. I am unable to upgrade because the 'Preparing installation' doesn't finish.
      I love Opera's bookmarking, sessions and cookie management.
      Any suggestions?

        @pjbw127 Do you need to do it every time you access those sites? Do you have cookies enabled?

        Regarding the installation, did you try the offline installer?

          Yes every time, over and over again.
          I did all my browsing in Opera. I have cookies enabled for the top page in each of my 4 sessions. If I really have to have cookies (for such as Amazon) I pasted the URL into Firefox where I have cookies enabled for everything. A bit of hassle but over the years this has saved a lot of trouble.
          Unfortunately this worked until I think it was when GDPR happened.
          How do I access the offline installer?

            @pjbw127 You can get the offline in Opera's page.
