@Eschentharrn said in Opera freeze when I open It...:

I have the same problem - but at a new level. First it kept freezing when opening. So I reinstalled Opera. Worked fine for that session.

Then upon restarting my computer, the problem returned. Only this time, re-installing wouldn't help. It'd open a window with all my previous tabs.

I kept retrying, up to the point it won't start, install, re-install oder even de-install. It gives me an error in the installer, claiming that some target folder data prevents it from installing.

Trying to open the actual problem OR clicking un uninstall claims an invalid side-by-side information. I then tried to clear every last single bit of cache and temp data there might be. All to no avail. It won't install either with the 2MB installer or der 106MB full file.

So here I am, a happy Opera user of 17 years, completely unable to re-install or let alone start the browser. Everything worked fine last night.

My problem persists, even after deleting all History files, my entire Temp folder and following pretty much anything in this thread it'll let me do (including Visual C++ downloads, deleting all Opera related stuff in the Task Scheduler etc)

At this point, even all "Opera Stable" (or even Opera Software) folders on my hard disk no longer exist, because I've even tried to delete them to see if this fixes it.

All to no avail, it still won't let me re-install Opera after all, whilst the only trace left of the old programme on my computer appeared to be Opera Stable 113.0.5230.62 listed was under "installed Apps" (but I can't uninstall there either, as it'll give me the same "side-by-side setting is incorrect" error). I managed to even get rid of that entry.

I tried running DISM, broken registries were repaired, but that didn't solve the problem either, nor did troubleshooting program compatibility nor deleting any further Opera references. It got to the point of trying to restore the system to a point where it still worked, but due to what was updated previously, even that kinda crashed and I was lucky to be able to abort it.

All the while it's still impossible to re-install Opera, a browser that was working just fine less than two days ago. I'm kind of out of clues at this point short of unistalling my Norton (which wasn't previously a problem with Opera or its update/installation process and even claims Opera's at it's most current version).
