@skelybrine Click on Options in the installer, change the installation path and then in the install for field, choose All users

If you have already installed, just uninstall it again install and reboot then it might be fixed.

Uninstall Opera, choose not to delete your data. Download http://ftp.opera.com/ftp/pub/opera_gx/71.0.3770.205/win/Opera_GX_71.0.3770.205_Setup_x64.exe, launch the Opera GX installer, click "options", set "install path" to "C:\Program Files\Opera GX", set "install for" to "all users", uncheck "import data from default browser", check "make Opera default browser", and install. Then, you should be able to make Opera GX the default browser in Windows.
