@fatguy1121 said in Opera Update Defaults to User Profile Only - Issues with Defender ASR Org-Wide:

Is it possible that the users themselves somehow ran another installer? or maybe selected an update prompt in opera that triggered it to do it's own thing?

While the former is possible, it sounds more like the latter, but don't know. For the "C:\Users"... update task, on the general tab, does it say SYSTEM for "When running this task, use the following account" or does it say the user's name?

For me, this happened just now on techerator.com from this Google search result. It was a well-made page that was convincing if it were not for the suspect auto download that didn't seem right.

Note I have added "broken" to the domain so it's rendered impotent.

https://broken.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=14&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwil6dv-j5vjAhUJTsAKHWP3AysQFjANegQIDBAB&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.techerator.com%2F2011%2F12%2Fhow-to-embed-images-directly-into-your-html%2F&usg=AOvVaw1o2EaUH52r53_GPKHeuClu

It wasn't until I scrolled or maybe was on the site for a few seconds. The JS file was obfuscated, starting like this:
(function(lyfwxi){var adubxo={};function egisur(){ymejig4=ygffipyv[["y","E","j","Z","D","T","G"][(-597+599)]+["o","C","a","b"][0]+"i"+"n"]("");diep......
Most concerning is that Opera was obviously coerced into auto downloading a script file.

This seems to be a related thread https://forums.opera.com/topic/32640/opera-portable-stopped-saving-extensions-between-pcs

This is what Chrome uses in Enterprise, which I never successfully got to work https://support.google.com/chrome/a/answer/187948?hl=en
Instead we tried using registry keys and group policy to set with no success.

This is where you can read all about what is causing the issue https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=419855

And this is my very old post noting the issue beginning in Opera 58

I have had some luck with using extensions (from the Chrome and Opera stores) to achieve this. You might want to try something like that, even if it is site-specific.

I just realized that it will change for darker colors, except the threshold might be a little too low for my color. Perhaps make the color a bit lighter to match for transparent taskbars, or use transparency like other versions and the problem will be solved. Here is a picture, Thanks guys!
