Localhost/Opera page at start – want rid
August 4th, 2016
I am using Windows 7 Opera (latest version) upon starting :
I keep getting a tab with Donate as a label and this address everytime I start up Opera.
Local : file://localhost/C:/Users/<username>/AppData/Local/Microsoft/Windows/Temporary%20Internet%20Files/web.html
I would like to get ride but so far I have failed to remove it. I have ticked showing hidden files and folders in windows but once I reach the file C:/Users/<username>/AppData/Local/Microsoft/Windows i find nothing related.
Any help please.
Thanks
Check the browsers shortcut in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs. Make sure that theres no website specified in the program path after the .exe
No, nothing there.
Thanks for trying
Sounds like its something in your options.
This is why I would never let anyone use Opera. It is terrible, lmao.
Try opening the exe without a shortcut ie go to its folder in program files.
That seams to work – but it does not remove the problem unless I keep opening as you have said.
Then its the shortcut that’s got the page in it, look at it again
Got the little blighter “alga.exe”
Thanks everyone for helping.
