Q: Am I correct that, within Settings, there is no option to disable the software from automatically checking for updates?'

@sporty78 There's no way to disable automatic updates from inside Opera

@sporty78 Probably nothing is being updated, Opera just checks and find nothing. Or, maybe, can't even check because the version is no longer supported.

@sporty78 I guess it's clear enough that Opera no longer supports Windows 7.

As mentioned, as recent as a week ago, after clicking 'Menu->About Opera,' an install occurred, and, consequently, I was instructed to restart Opera.

'Again,' I ask: Since Firefox uses an 'ESR,' does Opera have one as well (or an equivalent?).

If someone' can find out and update this post, all of us would appreciate it.

@sporty78 It was already answered that Opera doesn't have it.

@sporty78 So, to what version was your Opera updated to?

I listed it in my initial post: 95.0.4635.90.

It does not make sense that I would be instructed to 'refresh' O weekly 'unless' an update 'of some form' took place.

From memory, the '95' did not change but the '4653.90' portion did so.

@sporty78 Right, that was the last update for version 95 and was released in October 2023.
