      I am not a touch-typer so the Opera attempting to fill in when I type a URL is absolutely frustrating! How do I turn that "feature" off?

        This might do what you want

        To clear browsing data on exit in Opera, go to Settings, click on "Advanced," then select "Privacy & security." Under "Cookies and other site data," enable the option to "Clear cookies and site data when you quit Opera."

              Thanks, Guys!

              I have done all of that and Opera still thinks it knows what I want to type when it doesn't. I guess in this life we must put up with computers that think they know what we really want. Give me the good old days.

                Oops, Guys! I failed to exit Opera. I do believe that works. Thank you!
