<![CDATA[[Duplicated]Profiles Broken]]>I cannot open Opera GX profiles or refresh the icons. Profiles are very important for my work, as I have many social media platforms spread across each profile that require signing in. When I attempt to open them, this error comes up:

I've already attempted to revert to a previous version of Opera GX by uninstalling and reinstalling but it hasn't worked. I've managed to copy and back-up the profiles in the _side_profiles folder in case I need to fully uninstall (including personal data), but something tells me that still won't work.

I've seen that the 24H2 version appears to cause a lot of problems, but my issues don't really match other existing forums.

Then open Microsoft folder > Internet Explorer > Quick Launch > User Pinned > Taskbar

Right click on the shortcut > Properties. In target field change from launcher.exe to opera.exe
