Up until about a month ago, all my links opened in Opera. Since then, if MS Internet Explorer is open, all my MS Outlook links will open in it and not Opera. If IE isn't open, they will opened correctly in Opera. Opera is my default browser. Any idea how to fix this?

From the initial post:

"Is there anyway to delete all history over 6 months old? Ideally this should be a maintenance setting."

From my later post: What are the storage specifications for the history file? Are they kept indefinitely or deleted if more than 90 days old?

Thanks

So NOBODY on this forum knows how Opera stores history information????????

Perhaps you are right. My history only goes back to 7/11/17. But I may have cleared it on that date. Does anyone know if this is by design?

Just started happening about three days ago. Websites that have links to bing.net are not displaying. Anyone else seeing this

Here's an example:

Is there a way to install Opera on a computer so it is available to all users? Now it will only install under my user folder. So, in order to install it the way I want I'd have to manually install it under every user.

Windows 7 64 byte

Thank you for responding. I almost never use IE, but do when Opera does not display a page properly. There was a Windows update this week, so something about it I suspect caused this problem. But IE cannot be turned off as the default browser now.

This wasn't a problem until yesterday. All of a sudden IE has become my default browser, and going into Opera/Setting/"Make Opera My Default Browser" does absolutely nothing. If I close the settings page and reopen it, Opera is no longer default.

Anyone have a solution?

Opera 26.0.1656.60
Windows 7, 64 bit

1. You were right. It is the extension "Disconnect" that is causing that problem.

2. I get similar speeds on my browsers that support this page. Maybe a goal could be to bring Opera into compliance if not too onerous. I guess the bigger question is: Is Opera slower? Are other people getting similar speeds on other websites with different browsers?

Thanks for helping.
