Google photos not working

I go to Google photos often through Opera and there has been some kind of update on Google's end apparently and now it doesn't function through Opera. It works find in Chrome and FF. I have already deleted everything (cache, cookies, history, etc.) and that didn't help at all. I get "This page isn't working ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS" As I mentioned, I don't have this problem with any other browsers and this just happened in the last day or so. It has been working fine. I'm running windows 10. Everything is up to date as far as all my drivers, etc.

No problems here using the address https://photos.google.com/
The problem happens in a private window?

Update:
After first visit after removing cookies it worked, second time doesn't.
So it explains why it does work only in private mode... -

@tjall Exactly the same here, you clear them and it works the first time, then it doesn't after that.

@leocg Sorry to sound dumb, but what settings need to be reset? Can you give me instructions? So, google photos works in a private window, but not in a normal one. Clearling cookies, etc. works the first time you access the page after clearing them, but then not after that.

Now it's my turn to sound dumb. Is there a Settings menu that I haven't found yet? I went to the Settings menu from the O Menu up in the left corner of the screen and checked all the items and did not find a Recover and Update setting. I also did a search for those terms and it did not find anything.
So where exactly should I be looking?I have the same problem with Google Photos not working. I've disabled all of my extensions, all four of them, and it still doesn't work. I've tried clicking on the little vpn box on the address bar which I thought opened a private window but I guess not because Google Photos doesn't work that way either.
When I opened a new window and then went to the O Menu and clicked on New Private Window, then it worked. But I don't think I should have to do that. It should be easier than that. You know, one of those transparent to the user things.
Of course, Google takes no responsibility for this and makes a bunch of suggestions, all of which I tried and they didn't work. I went there before coming here.
Is the New Private Window from the O Menu my only option? Is that going to be addressed in your next update?
Thanks for the help, Carole

Here's an update on what I posted about an hour ago.
Isn't there some way to White List this URL somewhere?
Using the New Private Window option worked the first time, but not the next, or the next, or etc. Here's what I get. You can see it is in VPN mode.

the problem get solved if i Disable the option "Block third-party cookies
Prevent third-party websites from saving and reading cookie data", and reload the page again. but after if i again Enable it, the page shows me "ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS".its really annoying. same thing i faced while browsing Gmail.but Gmail works perfectly now. whats the issue?? -

No it does not. One of the suggestions to get it to work but try it in VPN mode but that doesn't work either.
