A fast, secure, and feature-packed free browser

Opera is a free popular internet browser based on the Chromium engine. Like Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Brave, it comes with a clean interface and a range of useful features. The latest version of the Opera browser runs faster, allowing you to leverage a seamless surfing experience.

Opera for Windows comes with an intuitive layout. It features a minimalist look combined with multiple tools for hassle-free browsing. For instance, the Opera web browser offers the ‘Speed Dial’ feature, which lets you access your favourite tabs with a single click. The browser also offers the ‘Opera Turbo’ mode, which compresses pages for quicker navigation.

Intuitive layout, social networking tools, and more

Opera internet browser features multiple customisation options. As such, it’s considered to be feature-loaded software. Since the program has been developed on the Google Chromium engine, you get easy access to Google’s expansive extension library. With Opera, you can also use some of the most reliable VPN extensions. The program runs smoothly on Windows, macOS, iOS, Linux, and other operating systems.

With the well-designed interface, you can use Opera on smartphones, tablets, PCs and Mac devices. Opera browser offers built-in support for Facebook Messenger, Telegram, WhatsApp, and other social networking tools. This way, you don’t need to worry about cluttered web interfaces of popular apps or third-party malicious extensions.

How to set up Opera on a Windows PC?

Just like other web browsers, setting up the Opera web browser is easy and simple. When you download and install the program, it automatically detects the existing internet browser and imports bookmarks, browser history, and passwords. After you sign up for an account, the software lets you sync passwords, settings, bookmarks, and history on multiple devices.

With the ‘My Flow’ feature, Opera for Windows lets you sync encrypted links and content, including articles, videos, images and personal notes. There’s also a button located next to the address bar to sync web pages and YouTube videos. For other things, choose the image, link or text, right-click on the specific option and click ‘Send to My Flow’.

Does Opera work with Chrome extensions?

As mentioned earlier, Opera lets you access several Google Chrome extensions. In addition to this, the browser comes with its own set of useful extensions, including reliable VPN extensions and password managers. With the Opera browser, you can also add third-party functionalities to improve your overall browsing experience.

While a lot of people choose to use extensions for ad blockers, Opera features a built-in ad blocker to prohibit intrusive advertisements from spoiling your surfing experience. This feature can be turned on from ‘settings’ within a couple of clicks.

What are some additional features?

While Opera often takes a backseat in a discussion about web browsers, the program comes with some unique features, including integrated messaging applications, automatic unit conversions, tab previews, seamless detachment of videos from the main screen, and more. 

In recent times, the development team has focused on building a clean interface, an intuitive layout, and a stack of useful features to give tough competition to adversaries. Opera internet browser features integrated navigation and search function, and uses a single bar for both use-cases. As such, you don’t need to worry about typing in two separate text fields on the top of your browser’s screen. Other additional features in Opera for Windows include private browsing mode, download manager, password manager, etc.

Is Opera a safe browser to use?

Opera is a safe browser that offers a number of security features to protect your privacy and data. Some of these features include:

  • Built-in VPN: Opera has a built-in VPN that can help protect your privacy when you're online. The VPN encrypts your traffic and sends it through a secure server, so your ISP and other third-party trackers can't see what you're doing online
  • Ad blocker: Opera has a built-in ad blocker that can help block annoying ads and pop-ups. This can help improve your browsing experience and make it easier to focus on the content you're trying to see
  • Tracking protection: Opera has built-in tracking protection that can help block trackers from following you around the web. This can help protect your privacy and make it harder for advertisers to target you with ads

In addition to these features, Opera also has a number of other security measures in place, such as sandboxing and phishing protection. These measures help to protect you from malware and other online threats.

However, there have been some concerns raised about Opera's privacy practices. In 2016, it was revealed that Opera was collecting a significant amount of user data, including browsing history, search terms, and website visits. Opera has since changed its privacy practices, but some users may still be concerned about the amount of data that the browser collects.

Where can you use Opera?

Opera Browser can be used on all kinds of devices and operating systems. The program’s desktop version is compatible with Windows 11, Windows 10, Windows 8, and Windows 7. It also runs smoothly on macOS X 10.10 and higher, and Ubuntu 16.04 and higher. When it comes to mobile devices, you can use Opera on iOS 11 and higher and Android 5.1 and higher. Additionally, for smartphones, you can choose from Opera Mini and Opera Touch, each with its own set of unique features.

A decent alternative to Google Chrome and other browsers

With the Opera web browser, you can quickly access all kinds of settings and websites from the sidebar. The program lets you effortlessly adjust the default security settings and integrates well with third-party antivirus software. 

As mentioned earlier, the latest version of Opera for Windows runs faster. In fact, the average page load time is less than five seconds. With minimal disruptions, an intuitive layout, and numerous features, Opera is an excellent choice to browse the internet.
