@notorious7302 Check the Easy Setup. Maybe you have to re-enable it from there.

@andeh What ahppens when you try to enable ad-blocker on YouTube?

@lourou It seems tyo be the ad-blocker. There was a topic about it a while ago.

@aqqn1949 What happens when you try to add the image as a wallpaper?

Here all flags seem to have been set to default.

@andrew84 History menu shows recently closed tabs

@malinkrek And when you click on it, nothing happens?

What version of Opera and what OS? Extensions are disabled?

@harakas Hard to understand what you are asking. So you want that the + buuton stop doing what it is supposed to do?

@mohsenIbrahim Opera updates if you use the offline installer?

@virgrod There are reasons other than accessing sites that do geo-blockkng for a VPN to offer region specific IPs to its users. Performance may be one of them.

Also, to be able to allow users to access those geo-blocked sites, a VPN needs to provide country specific IPs, what is not the case for Opera VPN.

@virgrod The main idea of Opera's VPN, and of a VPN in general, is to hide your true IP address so that sites can't know from where you are accessing them and, therefore, helping protect your privacy.

And Opera's VPN does that. If some sites think that you are in Canada or in Indonesia, it doesn't really matter.

@nvmjustagirl Because it's (probably) a virtual IP Address.

@ears14u Please provide your OS and Opera version information, so this topic can be moved to the right place, once it is not an issue with this forum.

@53-north Are you talking about Opera for Android, Opera Mini or Opera Touch?

@jojo0587 Opera is owned by a Chinese group but it's still a Norwegian company.

@virgrod The problem is not caused by the user but, as I said, by the site or by the third party service they use to guess the user location.

The site https://www.iplocation.net/, for example, will show that the same IP address is said to be in the US by one service and in Sweden by another.

Now, https://iplocation.com/ says that it is in Switzerland, while https://www.ipligence.com/geolocation shows it being in Macedonia.

@virgrod As you should already know, moderators don't work for Opera, so they can't give any offcial response in behalf of the company.
