RE: Installation fails with ownerless file "opera.exe".Opera GX
The installation works in the VM, but i used a virtualbox shared folder to move it onto my system, the exe becomes ownerless as soon as its on my system...
So when i try and copy it over, the opera.exe file becomes ownerless and 0-byte.

RE: Installation fails with ownerless file "opera.exe".Opera GX
New user installation doesnt work for all users, or the usb option. It doesnt show up in programs and features because it never finishes installing.
Clearing the temp files did not work either. Im honestly confused why this is not working.
And i dont have an antivirus to interfere with it. -
RE: Installation fails with ownerless file "opera.exe".Opera GX
I just tried the FTP latest installer and one version back, and they both have the same issue. Installing for all users does not work either

RE: Installation fails with ownerless file "opera.exe".Opera GX
I also managed to record me using the offline installer with the error message. Here is the video: https://streamable.com/rsf4gj

RE: Installation fails with ownerless file "opera.exe".Opera GX
I forgot to mention I have Windows 7.
I did reboot twice, and the files were still there. I also ran a chkdsk and tried multiple tools to take ownership of the file, to no avail.
I tried the portableapps.com portable installer, the official website installer as portable, and not as portable. All of them had the same error with the ownerless file.
I ended up rolling back my PC to remove the files, but I would still like to be able to use the browser.
