  Recently I wasn't able to launch Opera.

  I tried reinstalling after deleting Opera from my system, didn't work.

  I tried renaming the opera.exe to edge.exe or opera1.exe, didn't work.

  I tried disabling Microsoft Defender, didn't work.

  I don't have any antivirus program besides Microsoft Defender.

  I don't want to use another browser...

  Anybody having the same issue, or is there any fix?

  Also, I wasn't able to launch Discord as well. They kind of stopped working simultaneously.

  @goddgoroth Opera, Opera GX or Opera Air?

  @goddgoroth When you deleted Opera did you keep or remove the user data?
  Have you run any Windows System Checks, Open Command Prompt or Terminal and run as Administrator.
  If your running Running Windows 11 Right Click the Start Button and will you see a Menu and Terminal (Admin) is about half way in the list,
  Copy and Paste or Type:
  DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
  Press Enter
  If there are any errors reported Copy and Paste or Type:
  DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
  Press Enter
  Depending on your Internet Connection Speed and how busy the Microsoft Servers are DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth can take a while.

  Once DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth has finished, Copy and Paste or Type: SFC /Scannow
  Press Enter. if you get a good report at least you know it is not a corrupted system file issue.

  @leocg Hi, I'm having the same issue for both Opera and Opera GX

  @fitzydj Hello, after pasting DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth, I received "No component store corruption detected" message. I ran DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth anyways, and after that Sfc /Scannow, "Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files and successfully repaired them." message received. Still Opera doesn't launch... Thanks for the help though.

  Hello.
  I'm also experiencing the same problem with the Japanese version of Opera.
  I hope a solution is released soon.
  The situation hasn't changed even after updating, but I feel like the frequency of crashes has decreased.

  Additionally, I have found a DMP file related to this crash located at:
  C:\Users[********]\AppData\Local\CrashDumps

  Since standard system repairs haven't resolved the issue, could providing this crash dump information help identify the specific cause? If it would be useful for analysis, please let me know where I should submit this file (such as an official bug report page or a support email) for the development team.

  I am happy to share the details if it helps resolve this situation.
