The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000022).

Looking up the error on Google, I see https://www.thewindowsclub.com/the-application-was-unable-to-start-correctly-0xc0000022-when-opening-adobe-apps as the first result. Might help.

Try the last part of just downloading that specific setup file and running it first.

I'm not very computer literate, but what you suggested is awesome, thank you for all the time you spent on that.

(If you want.)

Delete "C:\Program Files\Opera" if it's there.

Delete "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\local\Programs\Opera" if it's there.

Delete all files and folders in "C:\windows\temp".

Delete all files and folders in "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\local\temp".

Load up the Windows Task Scheduler and delete all the Opera tasks.

Delete any Opera shortcuts you see.

Unpin any Opera icons on the taskbar. (Then, restart Explorer via the task manager or just restart Windows.)

In the registry (via regedit) looks for Opera keys under "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall" and delete the Opera keys. That'll get rid of the Opera Opera uninstall entry. Look in "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall" too.

Delete "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Opera Software" if it's there.

Delete "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Opera Software" if it's there.

Delete "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Clients\StartMenuInternet\OperaStable" if it's there.

Delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Clients\StartMenuInternet\OperaStable" if it's there.

Delete "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\OperaStable" if it's there.

Delete "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\OperaStable" if it's there.

Delete "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\Classes\OperaStable" if it's there.

Delete "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software" and "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\local\Opera Software" to delete all your Opera profiles and data.

Delete any "OperaBeta" and "OperaDeveloper" keys and tasks etc. you see too if you want.

Download this specific setup file of Opera, launch it, click "options", set "install path to "C:\Program Files\Opera", set "install for" to "all users", uncheck "import data from default browser", check "make Opera default browser" (if you want) and install.

Then, you should be good to go. If that still doesn't work, create a new windows user and try again there.

There shouldn't be that zero at the end of the build number.

Are you trying to uninstall from control panel or settings?

Try installing again
