@leocg Thank you, that's a sound conclusion. I was suggested a standalone install and the button was not there. Glad it's more of a benign bug than anything malicious.

Lastly, is there anything I could have messed up on my end or had accidentally injected?

@leocg Hey there, it's a button located within opera://settings/content on my browser. I've reached out to the subreddit wherein the responses said it could be leftover from chrome or an old update?

Hi, i've tried to access the safety check in setting in opera://settings/content as well as trying to directly open through opera://settings/safetyCheck. Clicking the button does not work, and going to the page directly sends to the home page.

I've recently had a bout with malware on my system and am wondering if this is because they modified anything in my browser for this behavior to occur.

Anything i can do? Thanks
