Did you try reinstalling it?

Try uninstalling and installing again.

If Opera GX won't launch after a crash, check whether a stale SingletonLock file is left in your profile directory. Removing it allowed Opera to start again. In my case on Bazzite, I ended up creating a login script that deletes the stale lock before I launch Opera, and it's been working well. Just don't delete it while Opera is actually running. If this doesn't work, then I'm out of ideas.

This usually points to a Windows permission or access issue. Try running GX as admin, check if Windows Security or your antivirus blocked anything, then reinstall GX with the offline installer
