@leocg can you just please tell your coding team to please work quickly because even opera support has put a post on twitter and Reddit saying there is a problem so please get them to work fast I’m begging

I've been having the same issue where the splash screen pops up as well as it appearing in task manager, but a moment later it completely disappeared.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled 6 times and restarted 3 times, my firewalls are disabled, and I tried using normal Opera.
I'm using an AMD Ryzen 5 3600 and a GTX 1650 Super. I'm on Windows 11 24h2 and the most recent update for GX. I need this for my work.

My WiFi was out all day yesterday and since it came back Opera wont open. It tries to run for about two seconds and then auto closes.

I’ve tried reinstalling, restarting, updating my drivers, pretty much everything I (and google) can think of. I’m stumped.

Yeah I've been getting the exact same problem; when I woke up this morning, it opened for about 10 seconds, and I was really happy, but then it crashed again. Previously, it hadn't got past the splash screen. I tried to uninstall, repair, reinstall, disable autoupdate, roll back to a previous version, but it still hasn't been working. I hope this issue is fixed soon, since clearly a lot of people are having this problem.

@imnotelliot you are not alone, i think some new update is the root of the problem

I don't know why but I can't open opera gx. I tried using --disable-extensions, reinstalling, repairing but it doesn't work. If I try opening opera gx it will just crash. I also tried using chrome and brave(chromium) and it won't work. The only browser I can use is edge rn

Every time I click to open the browser it refuses to open, I’ve tried everything, reinstalling, updating, reinstalling antivirus, ect. The only thing that works is to change the exe name, but if I do that another issue occurs, discord won’t register opera as a browser so it won’t open links. Idk what to do and am looking for advice
