Re: Add support chrome_url_overrides today its 2025, which is 5 years after this original post was made and there is still no support for it. This while all other major browsers do support it. Yet somehow there is still no way to override the new tab page in Opera (GX).
I hope the devs implement this. But meanwhile can someone help me find another solution for this? I want to set a local webpage (file:://path/index.html) as the new tab page.

Yes, it sucks.
You can use New Tab Start Page to work around it. You can't use the focus address field option in its settings and the address field won't be blank when the page loads though.
I don't remember if it works with local pages like
file:///C:/Users/yourusername/Desktop/newtab.html
though. Make sure local files are allowed for the extension at the URLopera://extensions
. You'll have to try. You might even have to modify the extension to allow local the file protocol.
