@leocg The last thing I can do is to pray that the problem is my computer. I will change my computer soon so I hope it will work there.

Good news guys!
Remember the strategy to just keep redownloading opera?
It doesn't work anymore

@supyis Latest Opera update seems to have fixed it for now as my browser hasn't crashed since.

Unfortunately not in my case. Still after launching Opera GX windows makes white and shut down and the process repeats 4-5 times and browser is not on. Installing again, renaming folder in appdata, installing over and over again etc. nothing works. It's new computer, at my previous and notebook Opera GX works perfect, but not on my main computer.
I searched half of the internet for solution and as for now nothing work.

@rastanz Oh yeah thank you, it works now, but the original problem is still there. I just need to hope my new PC is going to work with opera.

@supyis It's not your new PC that's the issue, it's Opera, I would use another browser till there's an update that will fix it. My crash issue just disappeared after a refresh and update but a new one has popped up in it's place, I've had to use Edge a few times to access some sites that Opera crashes on or wont even load due to issues with Java. Good luck!

@rastanz Alright then, thanks for the tip, how often does opera do updates?

@supyis Not sure but since they have two versions, the basic opera and the gx gaming version, you would think they would be consistent with updates but they're pretty slow.

Crashes have started slipping in to my gx browser again so it's definitely an opera issue as this has been it's normal routine behavior, opera crashes, I reset it, it works good for a while then out of the blue it crashes again.

Never had so many crashes in a browser than opera, the only reason I use it is because I haven't found a speed dial alternative.
