How is that possible? Win10 should require manual confirm for that

  Same here... Opera sets itself as default browser without any action/prompt whatever. It also adds the Opera icon in the task bar without asking anything. Red line crossed. Next step is probably to uninstall competitors ?

    Not saying setting itself as the default browser is a good thing or anything, but Firefox also pins to taskbar automatically. Chrome does too IIRC.

  It opened the system setting for me. I didn't approve it though, so the default didn't switch. However I do confirm it pinned itself to the taskbar, which is somewhat intrusive. It certainly isn't the conventional thing for Windows apps, and I'm not sure if there's much to win by doing this, really...

  No idea. I was never prompted.
