Home Screen web page shortcut gives "App isn't installed."

I've recently downloaded Opera (87.2) to my phone (Pixel 4a running Android 13).
I've made a web page in local storage at file:///storage/emulated/0/Android/data/
com.opera.browser/files/Download/pagename.html
and viewed this successfully using Opera.However, I then tried to make a shortcut to this page on my main Android home screen, by tapping the Opera menu icon > Add to... > Home screen.
This seems to work, but when I then tap the resulting icon on the Android Home screen, Android gives me an "App isn't installed" alert.
Is there some kind of auxiliary app I need to launch Opera from a Home screen shortcut, or does the OS mistakenly think I don't have Opera itself installed?
( PS - Ad Blocker is On, Data Saved is Off )

Should add, if I make a Home screen shortcut for an external website, that works fine.
Could this be some kind of permissions issue, accessing a local file via a shortcut?
