and hope the opera Dev's find a way so anti-virus programs wont block opera gx.

In this case, it needs to be reported to the maker of the anti-virus software. If you give info on what anti-virus software you're using, we can try to find the page for it where you report a false positive.

No i didn't report a false positive, i said anti-virus programs the word programs meant all anti-virus programs, mine a lone (360 Total security) may not be the only one that causes issues.

As of a few moments ago i checked my anti-virus and turn it off, reinstalled opera gx and all is ok now.

It seams that when the virus program do it weekly full check it wipes opera gx launcher.exe seeing it as a virus.

I now know what to do if opera gx stop working, and hope the opera Dev's find a way so anti-virus programs wont block opera gx.

If launcher.exe is in the install folder, you can right-click on it and choose to create a shortcut for it on the desktop. If launcher.exe is missing from the install folder, you should uninstall and reinstall Opera GX yet again and also check if your anti-virus is deleting it due to a false positive.

Thanks for reply will check anti-virus.

I tried looking for the launcher and like i said there is no launcher.exe in the programs folder, i cant launch opera at all.

At present i'm useing the old opera onwere as nice as GX

As of a few moments ago the OperaGX icon vanished and the entire program was gone from the folder where program is saved, it look like it was deleated, not by me.

I have reinstalled the program and i still get no desktop icon and in the programs folder the Operagx exe launcher is no where to be seen.

I was wondering why there is no Home button added to Opera Browser so we can go back to our home page like all other browsers out there.
