Cannot find a setting to control adding www to addresses

When I go to https://subdomain.example.com, Opera adds www. to it, resulting in https://www.subdomain.example.com, which does not exist.

I believe there is an advanced setting hidden somewhere in Opera to make it not ever add www.
But where?

Running Opera version 109.0.5097.80 on Windows 10 (22H2).

Thanks!

@xhjt6ibnm3juxprtuown There isn't such setting.

Does not do that here - it reports that "subdomain.example.com" does not exist (This site can’t be reached).
Is it possible that real server (not example.com) makes redirect to wrong address?

I was hoping there would be some setting like "browser.fixup.alternate.enabled" as described here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10186383/browsers-adding-www-and-com-to-server-address-automatically

It only does this in Opera though. Or at least... So I thought. Since it doesn't do this in Firefox.
But I just now found out that it also does this (adding www.) in Edge and Chrome, which are built on the same system as Opera of course.

I'll do some further digging.

Thanks.
