Sorry I couldn't help you. I was just looking through the Chrome store and found this:
Share web pages, images, and links by email or Gmail.
Use this extension to share a web page, an image, or a link with other people using your email or Gmail account. You can use a button or Chrome's right-click context menu. The extension also works with external email programs (like Mail, Outlook, Thunderbird).
Is this what you are looking for? If so, just type in send link by email or gmail and you'll find the extension.

Thanks - yes I did see this one yesterday but didn't pursue it far enough as I thought it only worked with G-mail. I'll try it again when I have more time. Will let you know how I like it. T.

I found nothing in "Chrome Extensions" to address the problem I initially wrote about: a one step URL transmission to my Live Mail program (as in O-12 via "Send Link by Mail" ), of a link, or entire web page.
With Add This you can just click on the extension icon and then on the email option to open your default mail client, very similar to what you used to do with Opera Presto.

Thanks, Guys - I got the Chrome extension to work quite well with 2 clicks on the 0-26 site, but, strangely, it seems to clear the screen of the actual website when doing so. Yes, one can click it back - but this seems a strange inconvenience. In any case thanks for your inputs. Thomas

Sadly the new Opera and me somehow didn't work out. We just didn't click. I just tried again since 12.17 is now showing an available update, but it still feels like a downgrade to me.
For Opera like feeling in a Chromium engine I am using the Japanese Browser Sleipnir 4. Tbh it feels a lot more like Opera than the new Opera. Sleipnir 6 is also nice and as actively developed as 4 but it does not have the Opera 12 feel to it.
I am sorry, but I guess I am so used to Opera 12 that I cannot adapt easily. -

Tom, what do you mean when you say that "it seems to clear the screen of the actual website?" I'm not following you on this and I can't seem to duplicate it.

The page that was sent to mail disappears. The selected page goes blank, screen is white, and a new tab appears: "loading". Nothing happens. Clicking on it doesn't bring the page back, but the original tab is still up there and clicking on it does bring the page back. Ridiculous. I think I am really going to continue with 12.17 which still works fine and smoothly and gives one so many more options. 26 has been a huge disappointment and, as others have mentioned, it feels like a retro, pop update rather than any sort of improvement. Peace. T.

Fooling around during the last few days (see above) I've lost my ability to "search", using Bing in the search window to the right of the URL bar of my preferred O-12.17. I've been to "Manage Search Engine" and re-did the title making it: Thomas' (and tried others), added the string and when I input an item in the search widow (properly aligned with the "B") it won't produce a result. I tried "Restoring" Opera with a "new setup" without result. "Google" has disappeared also. Any ideas out there as to how to restore the original "b" window to functionlality?

Sounds to me like you just have too much stuff going on and something in there is mucking up the works. You might have to do a clean install.

Everything is now working flawlessly, actually better than ever. I fixed the missing search engines (Bing & Google) in my O-12.17 search window by copying, and then sending to my e-mail, the appropriate addresses on my Lady's laptop 12.17 search window and then pasting them into my own. I shall stay with 12.17 - a wonderful intuitive program. My thanks to all of you for trying to sort things out for me.
