@eblecher There's currently a bug it seems with the default browser check that causes the infobar to keep showing up. You can try waiting till it gets fixed or just switch to an all users install like mentioned above. An all users install is what other browsers use anyway.

In O82.0.4227.23, the default browser issue disappeared after a few days on its own; now with the new O82.0.4227.33, it re-appears its ugly head. This should not be a problem that necessitates any kind of reinstall...etc. This has been reported since 23 came out, and now the new updates starts it again.. heh!

Windows 7, "Set Default Programs" Opera is not listed.

Under "Associate a File Type or Protocol", all the listed extensions and Protocols DO have Opera listed as associated correctly
