Solved!!

I cleaned the registry with Advanced SystemCare (see setup below)

This fixed the issue, I am now able to set Opera as default

@pandorave Cleaning the registry did the trick. Thanks for posting!

@blackbird71 said in Opera default browser:

About half way down the Settings list, you should see:
"Default browser"
"Opera is not currently your default browser."
button box: "Make Opera my default browser"

Are you saying the button does not work to set Opera as default, or that you don't see such a button?

Also, what version/type of operating system are you using (Windows 10, etc)?

1/the button does not work to set Opera as default.
2/Operating Systeme Windows 10 Professionnal.

@schpountz Before you said that the button wasn't working and now you say that there is no button. Which answer is the correct one?

The correct answer is that "there is no button".

@schpountz Try un-installing Opera and re-installing it again, there seems to be something wrong with your current installation.

@schpountz Do a backup. Or use Sync.

@bobbyg have you tried with the same software and the same configuration? I highlighted only the registry clean, but I actually had many other things turned on. One or multiple of the others might do the trick in your case.

Seems like there is a conflict with Windows 10 Creators Update. Opera beta 52 fixes it.
