      Well this is unexpected. I just updated the browser this morning only to come back like this:

      https://ibb.co/LXrscfXR

      I can see that I can navigate through the sites by pressing my hotkeys and I can open the menu by pressing alt on the keyboard but once I click on update or settings the screen stays the same. Completely white and blank.

      I downloaded again Opera and reinstalled it, same thing.

      Very frustrating.

      I went on the ftp archive and got Opera_122.0.5643.92_Setup_x64 and reinstalled it, works perfectly

      Anybody knows what the issue is?

        OK I found the problem.

        After I reverted to the 122 version, I changed the angle flag from OPENGL to DRD11 and now it works fine in the updated version.

          And another note, after 30 minutes of working on Opera I just realized why I had switched to OPENGL instead of the DRD11.

          OPENGL is much more smooth and better, DRD11 lags quite a bit.

          Hope this will be addressed in the next update?

            Yes, same here.
            Its the file called Local State located in "..\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable" causing this issue. If you delete it, Opera starts normally but all the tabs (and who knows what else) disappear...
            For me its not the solution, so i am sticking to the Opera_122.0.5643.142 for now...
            Hope this will be fixed soon.

                  Opera One.

                  The last version where the OPENGL config works perfectly is 122.0.5643.92

                  The 2 versions after that have the same problem

                    Ok, I did that, and Opera One installed correctly. Couple things:; A few of my Speed Dial icons that have multiple links in them have empty images in the icon, and the other question, after you installed O 123, have you tried setting the Angle flag back to OPENGL?? (I tried setting the ANGLE back to OPENGL and the same grey screen reappears, making Opera in operable. I will just wait until the next iteration

                    Here's an image of one of them

                      You also can modify the config file:

                      -Close Opera
                      -Open "Local State" with text editor
                      -Find string "use-angle@1" and change it to "use-angle@0"
                      -Save it and start Opera

                        I think I will wait for the next update, instead of trying to correct it myself. O 122 works just fine for now

                              I am using the version 122 with OPENGL because the versions 123 and 124 won't work with OPENGL and they lag too much under DRD11

                              So waiting on an update. I have to reinstall the 122 version every time I close Opera as it runs the update by itself every time

                                @ngocevski rename or delete "opera_autoupdate.exe" in "C:\Program Files\Opera\autoupdate"
