      @southpawsteven Indeed, it does work, at least for me. I'm installing any and every extension I want through Opera GX, the latest version. If you look below, there are screenshots.

      The first image is from the old site, and the second image is from the new site. Look at the option.

      Old Site:
      0b57cad4-39be-4297-9b81-4f753a91e1ba-image.png

      New Site:
      52039af5-4565-4050-9b8e-88cfc1b73824-image.png

      When it comes to installing, on the first one that says 'Add to Opera,' it works fine. On the second one, 'Add to Chrome' shows the error 'SERVICE_BAD.'

      Extension successfully installed through the old site.

        Fixed, just update the browser and you'll now be on the new site with the 'Add to Opera' option again.

            It's working on my end. I did have to manually update Opera GX though.

              @sirenbrink Yeah it's working fine after they updated Opera GX. Version LVL5 (core: 104.0.4944.60) has no issues with the Google store.

                I do have the same problem with the opera Gx. No matter what I try I cannot install chrome extensions. Normal Opera browser is working fine with no issues but Opera Gx is faster compared to Opera. I prefer opera gx but no extensions. So, I'm forced to use Opera which is a bit slower.

                    @saianwesh Make sure that you have at least LVL5 (core: 104.0.4944.60)

                      @leocg Now I have a new problem. I installed an extension called Dark Mode-Dark Reading from chrome extension store. It is working properly but opera detected some malware and disabled it. I cannot enable it no matter what I do. This kind of issue already happened with opera with some tapermonkey( I don't know exactly). Give me a solution to this problem.
                      2. Flow is not working. I have tried all opera browsers but no use

                        @saianwesh It's something to be discussed in different topics.

                                Yes, there have been reports of issues with installing extensions from the new Chrome Web Store. Some users have been able to resolve the issue by updating Chrome to the latest version. Others have had to clear their browser's cache and cookies. If you are still unable to install extensions, you may need to contact Google support.

                                  Try load extensions from address: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/old
                                  It's working, I'm sure. I've checked it

                                          Opera for me won't update, probably because i'm on windows 7

                                          My version is LVL 4 (core: 95.0.4635.88)
