Notice I can't change or detect my current location. Is it a bug? Opera says I'm in Oslo. Does anyone know how to fix this?

@kyrstannie Does it happen on any site? Is geolocation enabled? Check in opera://settings/content/location

@kyrstannie I'm having the same exact issue too, every time I click on an option to change it, there isn't a response. It also says I'm in Oslo!

Well, I believe is a bug. I've installed an old version of Opera GX (Opera_GX_98.0.4759.56_Setup_x64). That fixed the issue. I will wait a new update. Thanks all!

Edit: You can find old versions here https://get.opera.com/ftp/pub/

@mickeyroni uninstall and install an old version. It will fix.
You can update it after set up your location. If you update won't be possible change to other one later.

I have Opera GX on my laptop and it worked fine. I just got my desktop back from the shops and installed it and it has the exact same issue. The weather ... options don't respond and is stuck in Oslo.

It don't bug me that much as windows has a weather bar on my task bar that is there all the time, but still would be nice to have a feature in something I downloaded to work.

@kyrstannie when you hold ur mouse on the weather widget 3 dots will appear, and then click on those dots which will give you the option to change the location

@mrshrimp5739 This is happening on latest version of Opera, don't know about the GX rev. but it is most annoying, The 3 dots lets you open the location box but you can't save after you put your location in, so what is the use?
