      Seems like Opera is bugging on Windows permisions, even with being selected as defaut it wont place the defaut thing not able to be clicked.

        What OS?

        Download the installer, launch it, click "options", set "install path" to your existing install so that it says upgrade, check "make Opera default browser" and install/upgrade. Then, go into Default Apps/Programs and set all the associations for Opera again.

            Some versions of Windows don't allow programs to set themselves as default - sometimes the installer can (since it does ask to modify your computer), but sometimes you have to go through Windows settings (control panel on older versions) to change it.
