Whatever happened to auto-update?

I have had to update manually for some time now. Should Opera still be updating automatically? If so, where do I begin troubleshooting?

Yes, it should.

Some more details as requested will surely increase the chances to get help.

@cal5760 If you force an autoupdate, does it work?

When I go to Menu/About Opera or Menu/Update + Recovery, Opera checks the version, finds a newer one, then downloads the new version and installs normally. Used to be it auto-installed without me doing any of that.

@cal5760 Try checking in Windows scheduled tasks if Opera's autoupdate is listed and running.

I don't think my Opera has updated completely by itself in a long time. But, that could be just because I never give it a chance to and always "check for updates" manually. I'll have to keep an eye on it.

@leocg Yes it is listed twice, maybe because I still use O12 for mail, but I do have O12 set to "Do not update" so not sure where the second one comes from.
