@saswata450 There is no need to download it, it installs itself without asking for permission.

Same as the other people - I have two user profiles on Opera, one of them for work. Useless Amazon toolbar installed itself onto my work profile somehow (pretty certain I never asked it to), can't remove it, can't find any trace of it in my C:\ drive, doesn't show up in Extensions list, doesn't show up in Add or Remove Programs. Awesome job Opera. I really do thank you for your hard work and efforts.

I am using this extension and works great from my side. I don't know why people say it's not working but I've downloaded this from opera and using it since a month. No problem at all as I am amazon assistant it really helps me. I've also download WhatsApp from it also works fine. You can also download it from here: https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/whatsapp-in-opera/

Hate it, don't want it, didn't install it. I might just stop using Opera if I can't get rid of it.

The way to get rid of the pre-installed version which has no remove option is to install this proper extension, then remove it. Should get rid of both. I love Opera and I love amazon, but I dont want them connected.

This shit sucks. It auto-installs and can't be removed. On top of that whenever it appears. It goes right on top of my most important extension button and then I can't use the other extension because the Amazon extension is blocking being able to click on it. Apparently, I need to just move my other extensions around so the Amazon blocks one I don't need to click on. This is garbage

It didn't disapear even when installing this addon and then uninstalling it again.
All that happened for me was that I then had 2 amazon assistants for a while.
so went into
C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Programs\Opera GX\76.0.4017.208\resources
Deleted the promo thingy and then the bloatware was gone for me(Granted I still have this addon installed with the only permission to change the page no.page.existshere
and it is disabled) -

Got installed automatically without even request for my permission. That's really disappointing, Opera Team. There should be other ways to monetise such popular browser.

Auto-installing this by default makes me want to leave this browser forever. This is reminiscent of old skool IE days and practices.

The only reason I installed Opera is because of it's performance over Google Chrome way back then. There's plenty of good browsers that does the job nowadays. Sh*t like this make me want to look elsewhere

@nweinfeld the problem is:
I don't want it
I didn't install it
I didn't ask for it be installed
I didn't miss unchecking a box that would have prevented it from being installed
Instead, Opera installed it without my permission via an automatic update.
There is no option to uninstall it, not in extensions nor in add/remove programs
Now, I have to find the program on the internet, download and install it then uninstall it.
I should not have to do that. -

Opera will lose their clients if would be autoinstalling anything to users, especially sh*t like this

Love to see Opera being bundled with spyware. Good lord. Opera has been my browser of choice for years, but I guess I'll have to look elsewhere.
