@hattie I made it. I just tried Channel 4 again, and it's working, even though I couldn't update The Widevine components.
I don't know why, but I fixed it and I'm happy to leave it there. Thanks a million, burnout426 for holding my hand while I got there.

@burnout426 OK, I found the Widevine files and deleted them. The problem now is that when I try the Update bit, via opera://components I just get an image of the files (Or so it seems) and although it says it's updating, nothing is happening. Probably because it is just a picture?

@burnout426
Thanks for your help, burnout426,

I'm running Opera one 105.0.4970.21
Windows 11 64bit

Yes, this is about Channel 4.

I can't find ' the "WidevineCdm" and "MediaFoundationWidevineCdm" folders one level up from the profile folder.'
This is all "Here be Dragons" territory for me and I'm scared to do something un-reversible as this is a new laptop.

I know I'm thick, but I'm 76 and only came to computers in the last 5 years with nobody to teach me. Please don't abandon me.

Channel 4 will not let me play any of their programmes because Digital Right Management is not enabled.
None of their information pages are about Opera and I can't discover how to enable DRM.
Please can anyone help?
