Test that the installer is in tact after you download it. See https://www.reddit.com/r/operabrowser/comments/18468wk/comment/kaycxni/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 for how.

@burnout426 No hope, I did flushed my main account, tried a local login for Windows 11, deleted old files from OperaGX, still nothing, 104 can't install and still showing the same error. Only 102 can run atm. I'm tempted to do a full system restore of my Windows 11 back to defaults but then I'll risk deleting some important files and backing up is too time consuming just to fix this browser.

@sectionx27 I hope it doesn't come to that. I am in the same situation and I really don't want to restore or reset windows just for the sake of a browser, even if it means I have to remain on 102 forever or switch to another browser.
A user, rijndael9, introduced herself as an Opera engineer and sent me a message asking for my "opera_autoupdate.log" file. Does anybody have any idea about this user? Is it safe? does the log info contain any security sensitive data?

@engineerhb Yes, it's safe. Regarding the file, you can open it and see if there are any information that you consider sensitive. Probably it contains data about some directories on your system.

@burnout426 It's the fact that I can't solve it in any other way that leaves me perplexed. Obviously, as an old Mac user, I had to expect something like this on Windows!

Okay, ya'll listen up. The problem is already fixed. Just update your 2023-11 Cumulative Update Preview for Windows 11 Version 23H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5032288) and this will solve the problem. After restart, OperaGX just update itself and is now on the latest version of the browser.

Uninstall and Reinstall:
If you encounter persistent issues, you might consider uninstalling your current Opera version and then installing the latest version from scratch. -

@sectionx27 The problem is not fixed, I am on this update (KB5032288) and I am still facing the same issue. I didn't have time time to send my log file to Opera, I will do it as soon as I can. I just hope they can use the log data to patch this bug or provide a guide that help us to get out of this situation.

@engineerhb in my case after Windows update (KB5032283) something changed and now updates for Opera are performing just fine.

I have windows 10 and none of the above helped. What makes you think that this is related to the windows update? My program crashed right when I updated Opera. If the problem was in Windows, then in theory the old versions wouldn’t work either.

@thheblack I think the same, the problems is irrelevant to Windows version or its update. At the end and after many trials, I messed it up so badly that I wasn't even able to install 102. I couldn't make the necessary log file to send the opera developer team, maybe if you can still generate the log you can share it with them and hope for the best.
Finally I downloaded the Opera GX, online installer, and it installed without any problem.

A new version of the opera was released on January 4, 105.0.4970.74. I deleted the old one and installed this one, everything worked. Guys, if you are tracking the group, I recommend restarting it. I don't know what they changed, but now everything works.
