        I finally got this to happen to me in Opera GX. I then went to the URL opera://settings/system and enabled "Use DNS-over-HTTPS instead of the system’s DNS settings". Then things starting working. I don't know if that's coincidence or not yet though.

                Based from my own troubleshooting:

                Can confirm this issue is not related to 73.0.3856.431 as I was having this issue with 428

                It may or may not be related to the recent Windows Security Updates , it could just be a coincidence but I did start getting this problem after installing the following:
                https://support.microsoft.com/help/5001330 KB5001330 , KB5001405

                Workarounds:

                Option 1: Login with Chrome, Firefox will allow Gmail to temporarily work in Opera
                Option 2: opera://settings/system enable "Use DNS-over-HTTPS instead of the system’s DNS settings" only worked for me with Google Public DNS selected.

                Will be uninstalling the Security Updates to test if they are causing the issue or not.

                  Hey, have the same problem here unfortunately. In my opinion it has something to do with the new update, it is gonna be fixed surely soon I hope. Until then, I have a temporary solution: If you turn on VPN on any country, it will work (at least for me 🙂 ), it is slower but it's good until it's gonna be fixed! Have a nice day! 🙂

                                  Thank goodness, I'm not the only one with such an error. "Use DNS-over-HTTPS instead of the system’s DNS settings" is working while using default Cloudflare option. Also, turning on the VPN feature helps too.

                                            Hi, what i do and its helped only for moment:

                                            -on opera://settings/system "Use DNS-over-HTTPS instead of the system’s DNS settings" i click to active

                                            -i closed all google tabs and open new tab with URL "opera://net-internals/#hsts" on "Delete domain security policies" i clear google.com domain

                                            -my time on PC is good

                                            -Opera VPN dosent work.

                                            -i clear cookis for google

                                            Evry this solution dosent work or helps for some minut and problem will return (101 Error on gmail).

                                            I do below instruction - and gmail works fine 30min wihout errors.

                                            AD1

                                            i compere cert from operaGX with cert from another browser - for safety when i have same.

                                            AD2

                                            On secend step i save cert (with i have problem) to disk

                                            Click to Padlock icon (left from URL) -> Click on Certyfication -> on new windows change tab to detailes -> Copy to files... -> save to disk

                                            AD3

                                            Third step - import cert in Opera options Security tab -> manage certificates -> to:

                                            "intermediate certification authorities" and

                                            "trusted root certification authorities"

                                            (names of tab i got from google translator - i have PL version of Opera)
