Search result suggestions are interfering with my search.

My query:

".5 oz kojic acid dipalmitate (better choice )
.5 oz stearic acid (optional)
.5oz glycerin
5 drops tea tree oil
5 drops sweet orange oil
10 drops fragrance oil your choice
1tsp sodium lactate (optional)"

Objective of query:
Find matching recipe through Google Search.

Opera output: "14.17g"
Behavior: Copies output to clipboard

Output: Wrong. Waste of time.
The same with currency conversions which are out of date.

@leocg - I can't find where. I simply use my phone with Google assistant for quick searches and conversions for now.

Goto the URL opera://flags/#address-bar-categories-customization, enable the flag, restart Opera, start typing in the address field and click the gear icon in the address field drop-down to disable the categories you don't want.

Opera shows mid-market rates. PayPal does transactions, with a buy/sell rate.

The two will never be the same. PayPal also has fees.

Where did you find that check list and settings icon?

I think Opera enables this automatically for random users. I've always had to enable the flag myself though.

I enabled the flag as recommended in the previous answers. It worked. After updating to the newest version (101.0.4843.25), the settings icon appeared.

Several months prior to posting this topic, I have been sending multiple suggestions to Dev team through this tiny feature, telling them to make search suggestions optional:

But the search option settings were added several hours after I posted this topic.
