A frield has this problem, but cant get onto opera.
When she clicks on her Opera shortcut, she cant start Opera, and gets a message~
""Failed to load Opera dll because of invalid access to mem location ""

When we go to "add and remove programs" in windows xp,,and try to remove Opera, we get the same message.
""Failed to load Opera dll because of invalid access to mem location ""


So she cant open Opera, and she cant romove Opera from her PC, to re-download it

Any help please.

Something was deleted from the program's folder or from the registry.
Check if the program's folder is still there: Right click shortcut>properties>find target
If some files were deleted or the entire folder was deleted, then run CCleaner (google it) to clean entries from your registry.
Then try downloading Opera and install it again.
