After I was finally able to install the latest version Opera GX, I couldn't download any extensions I was only able to open it once, because the 2nd time it would act like its not connected to the internet just load continuously. Also after the first time I started it I could only run it again as an administrator.

@leocg I have done all of the steps including making a new profile by re naming the directory.

Your version isLVL 3 (core: 79.0.4143.73)

It still loads continuously like it has no internet connection.

@acorns Maybe it's being blocked by firewall or something like that?

@leocg Also sometimes when I re download and install it I will be stuck at this stage for over an hour.

I will eventually cancel it uninstall and re install until it works. but then i still cant get the pages to load after opening the programs a second time.

my internet is acting just fine as well

@leocg Not really sometimes it helps open the actual window, but they still wont load webpages.

@leocg I found an older version of of Opera GX (Version is LVL 1 (core: 62.0.3331.96)), and it works but when I update through the browser to the current version, is causes the same problem where none of the webpages load. Is it possible to get a older patch that is more current.

@leocg Hey so I was never able to find a build that works but if I download Opera_GX_79.0.4143.73_Autoupdate_x64.exe
And open it on the desktop and it extracts all the files on to the desktop it works, but I'm stuck with all the files on my desktop. If I move those files into a folder it stops working. Any thoughts on how I could figure a way move those files and still have it work?

@acorns If you create a Opera_GX folder, it also doesn't work?

@leocg If I create a "Opera_GX" folder then open the Opera_GX_79.0.4143.73_Autoupdate_x64.exe inside of it, it will not work only doing it from the desktop makes it work.
