Brilliant, that's it!

@burnout426
Great find, but I'm just getting error messages if I try to download the file.

@burnout426
But not for long!

I've had a quick look and can't find it either, there seems to be nothing before Opera 11 on Opera's FTP site now, as I'm sure you've discovered.
Try downloading Universal Extractor or an equivalent and extract the files from the Installshield installer. You may find the necessary installer files packaged in there that will work for you. A long shot, but worth a try!

The "controlled folder access" feature in the Windows 10 Defender is absolute rubbish. I eventually switched it off as I got so tired of having to endlessly manually add exceptions to it.
It doesn't even let things access the desktop FFS, and the desktop, like all other Windows folders deemed critical by Microsoft, cannot be excluded from the feature. Considering that virtually all installers expect to write shortcuts to the desktop, which this feature now blocks, seems to indicate to me that Microsoft didn't really think this feature through!

You're welcome, I'm glad it helped you.

It sounds like your system is fundamentally OK.
It would be worth logging this with Opera, even if it is an issue with the Chromium engine, they will know how to pass it on to the necessary people at the Chromium project.

For what it's worth, I've always downloaded drivers directly from manufacturers' websites, and never had any problem.
Drivers offered by third parties, especially Microsoft, are often very out of date.

@yaro1986
Try disabling hardware acceleration in Opera's advanced settings and see if that fixes it.
If it does, try reinstalling the graphics drivers again. Did you uninstall and reinstall, or just reinstall them?
If the latter, try completely removing them before reinstalling, that can make a difference over just reinstalling over the top of what's already there.

@burnout426
Good news!
