OperaDriver fails to start

问题:

There was an update last week for Opera browser. Since then it stopped working. It opens the browser and shows 'data:,' in the URL and throws webdriver exception. Is Opera 41 compatible with selenium 2.53.1?

Exception thrown is:

Result Message: Initialization method SDTestAutomation.HomePage_Tests.Init threw exception. OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriverException: OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriverException: The HTTP request to the remote WebDriver server for URL http://localhost:64865/session timed out after 60 seconds. ---> System.Net.WebException: The request was aborted: The operation has timed out..

Browser initialisation is straight forward.

driver = new OperaDriver(path of the driver);

Tried selenium 3 as well but no luck. Got the same exception.

After downgrading Opera to version 40, I'm able to run my test suite as before.
