All of a sudden my Opera won't open to my home page where all of my bookmarks are. I click on the desktop icon to open, same as always, then I see a blank screen. Help!!!!

for me it now seems sporadic - everything opened just fine a little while ago but now I'm having the same problem - in fact, I can't even click on the Opera desktop icon to try to open it -

how do I get Opera to Stop making suggestions about websites, either on the home page or on my speed dial pages? It is Very annoying!

@leocg exactly where is that? I thought I had disabled it but now it's happening again - thank you

@leocg OK< thank you

@macfish47 Yes, me too. I have to re-install my speed dials one by one but that's OK. Thank you again for your help with this!!

@macfish47 thank you but I was not able to install Mini - I got the same error message (unable to start correctly) - it says that , "mini" is for Android phones and tablets, not Windows 10 - thank you for your generous help -

@macfish47 how did you synchronize your settings? I downloaded GX - it recognized my name but it didn't ask for my username or password -

@macfish47 thank you - is Opera "light" the same as "Opera GX"? - Opera GX is advertised as a browser for gamers - is that the one you mean? thank you

No - not only that, I uninstalled Opera, then tried to re-install it and I couldn't -- in the middle of the installation I got this same error message - tried this three times, same problem every time

all of a sudden I'm getting this error message when I try to open Opera:

Application error. The application was unable to start correctly (Ox0000022) Click OK to close the application.

Can someone please help this old Luddite - what's going, on, how do I fix this? If I have to re-install Opera do I lose all of my bookmarks? Thanks.

@leocg thank you but I have no idea what VPN is or what it does. Is this something I do want or is it not needed?
