      I noticed this evening the Home button is suddenly missing from my toolbar. Where did it go? It may seem a small thing, but it isn't to me. I use it all the time!! It's all configured exactly the way I want with the sites I use most frequently. I know I can get to it if I close the driver, but that is a PIA, especially when I have several tabs open and/or pinned. If I wanted the home page, just click the home button. I can't find anything anywhere that lets me select it as an option. Was a new version downloaded without my knowledge? Why was this done without my knowledge or permission, if that is in fact the case. It annoys me that something I used all the time was unilaterally taken away!! This is the heavy handed type of nonsense I expect from IE (or whatever MS calls it these days) or Google, not Opera, which is otherwise the best browser I've ever used!

        Uhhhm, something isn't making sense. Perhaps your wording or terminolgy is unclear? A built-in 'home' button has been missing in Opera versions for nearly 3 years now, unless a user has intentionally installed a homepage extension or set aside a particular bookmark as a pseudo-homepage. Moreover, a formal 'toolbar' has also been missing from Opera versions for that same length of time. The last Opera version that had a native homepage button and toolbar was Opera 12.1x, which was recently security-updated to 12.18. The current version of Opera is 36, and the button and toolbar have been missing since version 15.

        What Opera version are you using right now? (Help > About)

          There's no Home button, there's the Speed Dial button, which may serve as a substitute.
