      When I open it says Profile error occurred
      Your preferences cannot be read
      Some features may be unavailable and changes to settings won't be saved.
      After that it all has default settings, and the fast acces page too, the only thing that stays as I saved are the markers and the pages that I oppened beafore closing the app

      I`m using LVL 1 (core: 67.0.3575.130) opera gx (just reinstalled)on windows 10

        @socramle Something prevented Opera from reading the profile directory, so it started a new one.

          @leocg any idea what it could be? I tried installing it in a lot of different folders in case it was corrupted, and still got the error

            @socramle It may be lack of privileges to access the directory.
            If you start Opera as administrator, the problem also happens?
