As the full screen screenshot illustrates Edge is not running but Opera complains that Edge has to be closed before import should continue.

Edge is not running
Did you check the Task Manager to make sure?

Yes. I did.
Did you click on More Details in the task manager when you checked it?
Edge runs as a background process that is automatically loaded by Windows by default. This process does not appear in the Task Manager's standard view.
Your screenshot only shows that MS Edge is not open as a program. However, Edge is most probably running as a process.

I tested this myself. No Edge processes and no Edge services are running, but I sitll get this error. But, I only get this error in Opera. In Vivaldi and Chrome, the import of Edge's bookmarks works fine. Looks like an Opera bug to me.
Edit: It's a known bug in Opera. Bug DNA-80370.
