      Hi,

      I've installed Opera 45.0.2552.635 (PGO) on Windows 7 and its working fine

      However, it has installed a lot of files (50Mb approx) which has taken me over my user profile limit which is set by a corporate policy and difficult to increase.

      My question is, can the following directory be relocated elsewhere and if so, how?

      C:\Users%USERS%\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software

      Regards,

      Paul Stradling

          Just install a standalone USB version, that will put all its files into the folder in \Program Files.
          You won't easily be able to make that your default browser though.
          🙂
