I eventually got the error again.
I'll have to try and capture some Process Monitor logs to see if there's an obvious point at which it can happen during exiting.

I've found that it happens when I switch from my mail tab to a webpage tab. Not everytime, but still reasonably frequently.
I don't have the same issue on my work PC.

1) On Windows, press Win + R, type in appwiz.cpl and press Enter or click OK;
2) Uninstall all instances of Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime, if any;
3) Download and (re)install the Microsoft Visual C++ Runtimes;
NOTE: For 32-bit (x86) versions of Windows, install the x86 versions only. For 64-bit (x64) versions of Windows, install both.

4) Go to Windows Update and search for any updates related to the runtimes.
5) Install any updates found.
Now try using Opera Next again and check if the error pops up again. If not, then the problem is now fixed (at least for now).

I said I wasn't sure that was the issue but it could solve it since the installation(s) of Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime could be corrupted. If that didn't work, then the problem really lies within the Wahoo builds of Opera and is thus up to the devs to fix it.
But in my case it happens while I use Opera, not when I close it.
So when the C++ notification comes up, I just minimize it and continue

Using:
Opera 11.60 1185
Opera Next 12.00 1191
Opera Mobile 11.50 1893
Opera Mini 6.5 27055
Opera Mobile Emulator 11.00.14316

If it happens across different versions of Windows, but with the same version(s) of Opera, then who is to blame?

You know, there's a stable, final version of your favourite browser that runs smooth.

I second that. That's why Opera made Opera Next--so you can install it side-by-side with the stable version of Opera.

The fault is happening with Opera as well as Opera Next, though. For personal web use, I have chosen to persevere, and wait, hoping for a resolution to this problem in the near future; however, I can understand users choosing to use alternatives while they wait. For my work related web use, there is no way that I could use Opera or Opera Next as my primary browser, at this time, as I need to be able to work without interruption, particularly when engaged in real-time communication with potential customers, customers, and colleagues.
Having said that, since installing build 1360 of Opera Next I haven't had an issue (yet). They did confirm the error as a known issue in this build, so I wasn't expecting the problem to go away.

I think it happened to me once on 1347, but I seriously doubt that Next has something to do with it since it's a separate, portable install.

I'm aware of this solution, thanks. And this are big winning-points for the opera-crew. Which other Browser offers such a well-thought-out concept of a developing and a stable version. I appreciate that.
Actually in 1360 the Runtime-Error seems to occur a little less than the previous ones. A pity, now the plugin-wrapper does its best, to freeze opera.
In private surfing, I'll continue using my 'favorite browser' an I hope, my many crash-logs will help to improve reliability

But as well-said before, be careful with Next-Versions in productive/ business environment

Both Chrome and Firefox offer a similar way to install stable and development builds.
