<![CDATA[addons.opera.com blocked, that makes Opera installation abnormal]]>It seems that addons.opera.com is blocking some IPs in CN. That directly makes users in that region can't install extension.
It causes Opera installation (versions after 85.0.4341.18) abnormal. After Opera installed, it can't install/load Ad blocker, Crypto Wallet extensions correctly, which makes "Privacy protection" disappears from "Settings". Pls refer to the snapshots, nothing in red circle.
Since "Privacy protection" disappeared, Ad blocker can't work correctly. It can't be turn on/off in extension tab. You must restart Opera to turn it on/off. And when Ad blocker is on, it blocks all the webpage loading correctly.
I tried clean install Opera 86 on 3 Windows devices, the issue can be reproduced. Please fix the issue ASAP, THX.

If i use VPN to make Opera think I'm not in CN, it will install correctly.
