      When I click About Opera on one of my laptops I always get an error when searching for any new updates. I then have to go to the Opera web page to download the new Opera instead of being able for it to automatically download on the About Opera page.

      Windows 7, using the latest build. I had the latest build of O 55 and on my other two laptops the download works perfectly.

      Help appreciated

        It happens all the time? Usually running the (online) installer solves those problems.

          Delete Opera's program files folder before you install it again. Or, uninstall Opera (keeping your data) and delete Opera's program files folder if it's still there. Then install.

            Working now, after shutting the laptop down for a day.

            Thanks everyone.
