      I am having the same issue and this is complexed to me. I had my windows 10 tablet pc with Opera 55.0 open with tabs overnight and I have not had this issue. This morning I go to open my Opera after closing it and I get his message: "Can't open user profile directory, because you lack sufficient privileges. You might want to contact the administrator of this machine."
      So I tried to go to Properties after right clicking on the application and I see all seemed to be set or am I just looking in the wrong area? Opera support team should be able to respond here. I have also went to the local drives area of where my Opera files are and I see there's a list of different folders with mixed numbers and letters. Does this have something to do with something I can delete or something? Where are they?

        When faced on Pc, I've fixed it with "Take ownership" at profile folder options, security.
