When downloading the Opera full installer from the Opera FTP such as Opera_GX_128.0.5807.51_Setup_x64.exe
The installer has no embedded icon (or the icon is malformed.)
The installer seems to install just fine. But users are concerned that the installation is not a legitimate installer.

Opera Update through "Update & Recovery" FailsOpera for Windows
The past few versions I have attempted to update Opera Browser through the "Update & Recovery" menu option.
This normally functions quite well. It detects a new version. I watch the progress as it downloads the update. Then tells me to relaunch the browser and all is well.
Lately, however, It goes through the same motions, downloads the update and displays an installation dialog and when I tell it to continue it says that the update failed and that I should download the update from the website.
This is occurring on my Windows 10 pro 64 computer but not my windows 11 computer.
Also I do not install applications in the default locations.
I install all my 3rd party apps here: D:\Programs....Thank you for your time.

Feature Request: Safe Site ListSuggestions and feature requests
Please add a feature that was once in Internet explorer.
A Safe Site List.
A place I can add canonical names or IP address so that I never see the security warning page that this site is unsafe.I have a few Local web interfaces that run in Docker containers on my home network.
I do not want to have to set up a whole Certificate Authority then distribute certificates for things that are all behind my firewall at home. Which I think I will still get warnings because they wont be 3rd part certificates.It would be much easier if Opera could have the ability to just ignore security concerns for specified sites or IP addresses. (Like Allow: 192.168.1.101 ) which is my home test web server.
Thank you for your consideration.
Cheers
