<![CDATA[opera browser assistant process]]>before version 128, there was an opera browser assistant
process in the task manager when launching the application. After updates from version 127 to 128, it eventually began to be deleted from there and was restored only after a complete reinstallation of the browser, then after updates it also disappeared. Is this critical, and am I the only one with this problem?

I'll consult this internally.

Until than, keep enjoying the browser 😉

Do you encounter any issues with the browser due to that?
