      Hello everyone.
      Since yesterday, January 27, 2021, my GX browser is reporting a failure.
      When I start it, it loads the Opera GX presentation and then the browser closes and opens 3 or 4 times in a row and then closes completely and does not work.
      I have tried to uninstall it and cleaned any trace of my system to reinstall it cleanly and the problem persists.
      When I install again and start for the first time, it works fine. But once I close it and want to reopen it, the same problem appears, making it impossible to use.
      I would appreciate help in this regard.

          At version 72.0.3815.487, I think it updated on the 31st January (I might be wrong). It was all working good till the afternoon of 1st February. And after that, I open it, it crashes instantly, opens itself again, and crashes again, and this goes on for like 3-4 times and then it doesn't start again. I tried reinstalling first using the reinstall option in the installer, didn't help. Then I uninstalled completely, removed all folders and reinstalled, it worked once. And then the next time booting it up again, same issue. Running as Administrator didn't help. Normal Opera is working fine.

              @jonaslang123 Glad to hear I'm not the only one. I have tried a lot of stuff, changing permissions in regedit and all that sorts, nothing works. I'm having to fall back to normal Opera for now. It really is a pain in the back switching your main browser. 😕

                @deathstalkersid Normal Opera is not working, too in my case.

                  @jonaslang123 Can you check your event viewer and see if there's any error or something at the time of the crash?

                    @deathstalkersid No, there are no administrative events occurring. And you?

                      @jonaslang123 It shows a warning: "The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID

                      I have tried granting more permissions and all, but doesn't work.

                            @burnout426 This is definitely not my problem. I have all this checked on my PC and none of this is active. Attached error report of Opera GX taken from the registry of the application itself, to see if it helps.

                              Whenever I launch Opera GX it keeps crash looping. It launches for a couple seconds and then crashes immediately after. Then relaunches and crashes again. Anyone with any tips or anything?

                                I had the same problem, Opera was working fine then i saw an error message on the background, it was about opera gx auto update i closed the error and continued watching youtube, the next day (which is today) i opened the browser everything was normal then i saw the update so i updated the browser. 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.

                                  I'm totally new user to Opera and wanted to try out Opera GX.

                                  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.

                                    Opera GX just won't open, I already tried uninstalling more than 3 times, cleaning the cache and% appdata% but the problem continues, Opera GX just shows its logo animation but the browser never opens. asd.PNG

                                      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:
                                      âž¡ x64 - https://ftp.opera.com/ftp/pub/opera_gx/73.0.3856.438/win/Opera_GX_73.0.3856.438_Setup_x64.exe
                                      âž¡ 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

                                      Dream on till your dream comes true

                                          I recently installed opera gx and got everything setup. 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.

                                            Well. I installed Opera GX 76.0.4017.227 and whenever I opened a new tab in Opera GX, it will guarantee to randomly crash either when I type into a search bar, after doing nothing for 1 - 2 minutes or just immediately after startup. What I've done:

                                            • Delete all extensions (except adblocker).
                                            • Reinstalling the profile and cache folders.
                                            • Already checked that my microsoft account does not belong in a family according to this reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/operabrowser/comments/j5fstq/opera_opera_gx_not_opening_or_opening_and_closing/
                                              And that's it. btw while typing this, Opera GX just crashed randomly again. Thanks for the help.
