@simb1973 Apparently this is a "built-in feature" the devs decided in their infinite wisdom should not be equipped with an "off" function!
Now there's smarts for ya!

I'm being constantly plagued by this notification:
because it has to be the most unstable program ever to exist. I'm being disconnected and reconnected every few minutes, and it's infuriating!
I have gotten to the point where I have gone to each browser in turn and shut of all notifications. But... it keeps popping up and there's no way to stop it happening!
Everything related to "Notifications" has been switched of at the browser level and the operating system level, but they just will not go away!
I'm typing up some work and there it is... I'm browsing the net and there it is... even trying to do artwork and editing and there it is. Even with all the browsers closed!
I've had so many issues with this VPN already that I doubt if I'll bother keeping it for long. I might just ask for my money back and use something that does what it should without all this unnecessary fussing about!
Please tell me how to fix this... or how to plague the developers until they install a mechanism for shredding this stupid notification forever!
@startparty Yes. Thanks. It’s one of the first things I did.
@leocg Where? If VPN Pro is doing it’s job (and bear in mind Opera’s standard VPN allows me to watch the shows I want on my iPad) then it should be in control of what IP gets sent out.
@yetoiran I have whitelisted play.history.com which is the site I’m trying to access.
A VPN check online shows that even with VPN Pro active, my UK ISP is still being shown. So, it isn’t really doing what it claims to do.
@leocg But VPN Pro works across all my browsers, so it shouldn't block me when I try watching on Chrome, but it does. Proton doesn't block me though. That's my point.
I usually watch History Channel documentaries using Proton VPN to get America-only ones from the UK.
Whenever I now access them using Opera's VPN Pro, the site tells me my ad blocker is on, even when it isn’t. No extensions I have block ads, or pop-ups. Proton VPN never had this issue.
Why does VPN Pro block me from watching shows when it is supposed to bypass geoblocking? The basic Opera VPN doesn't stop me watching shows on the same channel on my iPad, only the Pro version does on my PC.
How can I make sure this problem goes away?
Following my download of the latest Opera for Windows, and VPNPro, my laptop screen flickers, even after a clean installation of the latest Intel device drivers. The computer was fine before the Opera download. Why is Opera having this effect?
@leocg No. I restarted the machine for the nth time and eventually the problem went away, but... two new problems surfaced.
I had no problems prior to installing Opera, or its VPN. I'm beginning to believe I've made a mistake trusting this company.
