Instead of reinstalling simply run the opera GX uninstaller and hit repair.

I've also been re-installing by the browser, but to no success. Then I ran into another problem while looking into the Task Manager: whenever I try to open the browser, it shows up on the Manager page and then disappears. What is going on? I may have to wait a few days/weeks until I find a good solution, but that is way too long! The browser was working fine a few weeks ago, and suddenly stopped!

Yesterday I had installed a driver to capture my ps3 controller, but when I ran opera gx it stopped working. I have already cleaned the computer, removed this driver, reinstalled and uninstalled opera and installed it again, but it just opens 4 blank screens and then closes. I've cleared the cache too and it still won't open. If anyone can help me, I'd appreciate it.

OBS: I already pressed some commands like alt + space etc and nothing

I click on its icon, and a screen with the Opera logo pops up. Then, there's a white screen that starts blinking until it closes.

I'm using windows 10 and trying to use the latest version of Opera GX. The program was working fine 2 days ago but stopped working yesterday. I have tried re-installing the application in new locations, restarting my pc, making exceptions in my antivirus, and updating my drivers and so far nothing has changed.Opera gx start pt 1.PNG Opera gx start pt 2.PNG

If you have to, add Opera's install, profile, and cache folders to the Windows Defender exclusion list. The paths are listed at the URL opera://about. You can also exclude by process (exe name or specific path to exe name) to exclude opera.exe, launcher,exe, opera_autoupdate.exe etc.

After I restarted my computer I realized that opera would rarely open and if it did no pages would load. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling and also logging into a local windows account instead of using my microsoft account but nothing seems to work.

Do Windows Key + R and paste -"%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Opera GX\launcher.exe" -uninstall (with the -uninstall, don't delete anything)

Make sure that Delete my Data is UNCHECKED and uninstall the app.

Download an old offline installer from the links - 64 bit OR 32 Bit:
➡ x64 - https://ftp.opera.com/ftp/pub/opera_gx/73.0.3856.438/win/Opera_GX_73.0.3856.438_Setup_x64.exe
➡ x32 - https://ftp.opera.com/ftp/pub/opera_gx/73.0.3856.438/win/Opera_GX_73.0.3856.438_Setup.exe

Disconnect from the internet and run the installers

Do Windows Key + R and paste -"%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Opera GX\73.0.3856.438"

From there delete the opera_autoupdater.exe, and do the same from 73.0.3856.438_0 or similar if they exist

Run Opera GX normally

Downloaded the automatic installer, everything installs fine, but then when the Opera GX browser is supposed to open, I just get the animated splash screen then it closes and nothing! Re-trying to open Opera GX results in the same disappointing experience! No change if I uninstall or re-install, or if I use the 64-bit specific installer. However, if I use the 32-bit installer, then Opera comes up just fine!

So ... what gives? This an up-to-date Windows 10 PC and has never had Opera browser before. It does have Google Chrome browser installed however, my previous browser. Used this installer: Opera_GX_73.0.3856.438_Setup_x64.exe, the latest as of this writing.
No error or exception dialog pops up, so really no clue why I can't run the 64-bit version of Opera GX but I'd like to make you aware of the issue or figure out my problem and get it fixed.

But when i tried to open it it came up with a splash screen then closed itself and never opened, i tried re-installing, running it as administrator but none worked, so i think its about an update that caused the problem.
