      Hello, I would like some help from the community BC i wanted to have an alt account pin on the task bar i already have one but i couldn't make it appear on the bar. I tried to go to the parameters and looked for the profile and GX categories but i wasn't able to find it even with the URL "opera://settings/side-profiles-settings". So can someone help me with it, Thx

        @Mats3007 You are talking about Opera GX profiles or you are talking about Opera accounts?

          @leocg idk i thinks it's profile basically i wanted to have another profile linked with another account like one for the study and the other for gaming/fun with both on the task bar. And if it's not possible to have different account just a different profile

            @Mats3007 Complicated. Let's guess that you are talking about Opera GX profiles.

            When you go to settings page, do you see the GX Profiles icon?

                @Mats3007 If you are using Opera GX, you should see a GX Profiles section between GX Basics and Early Bird.

                  See https://www.reddit.com/r/operabrowser/comments/1igvhdz/opera_gx_side_profiles_brokennot_restoring/ if you're on Windows 11 24H2 and you're having trouble with the taskbar icon for a profile not showing (or being created).

                  (Profiles are created at the URL opera://settings/side-profiles-settings.)
