Hello!
To avoid using IE9, I have tried to install opera on my Terminal Servers, Windows 2008 NON R2 (Vista server)
OS Name: Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Standard
OS Version: 6.0.6002 Service Pack 2 Build 6002Of course with "change user /install" to make profiles and registry for the independent users.
To not annoy TS users with pop-ups on automatic updates which they can not install.
I have manually disabled the autoupdate feature by renaming the "opera_autoupdate.exe" file in C:\Program Files (x86)\Opera\VERSIONNUMBERNow what is left for me to make it a real good solution is:
- Force our intranet as startpage
- Auto distribute abp extension to all the users.
I will try the Chrome ADM extension, but I guess it's not working. Anyone have ideas on how to make it happen?

So I found out there are different places in the registry for Chrome and Chromium.

But is this features even activated in Opera, if so what would be the path?

Also of interest would be customization of the speed dial page with internal pages.

Noticed there is no "opera://policy" page which I guess means this feature is stripped away in operas release.
As you can see in the link above there is a "Chrome://policy" page which displays policies in use. -

Without this Chomium feature (manage by GPO), Opera can not be used in many enterprise.
