      Is there no way to stop Opera asking to be the default browser? I just it as secondary browser and this bar is quite annoying. Is there a way to stop this bar to show up other than making Opera the default browser? Thanks

        There's an "x" on the right-side of the bar. If you click it, it shouldn't come back. At least, that's how things behavior for me.

        If clicking the "x" doesn't work, I'm assuming there's an issue with saving to the Preferences file in the profile folder or something like that. You might want to set your main browser as the default browser in windows again just to see if that clears it up.

        What OS though?
