This is long-standing issue with Opera... I've encountered it few times on Mac...
Only workaround is to manually download the installer, fully exit opera (no background processes) and then run it. Once i reinstalls opera, you should be fine for some time.
One time even the installer was failing (even after restart), so I've just wiped opera and ran the installer again. It was painful.
Do more on the web, with a fast and secure browser!
