Do you like to write "www." before and ".com" after the site address? I don't like. I like automaticaly server name completion. For example, if i want open Google Mail i am just write "gmail" in address bar and then press Alt+F1. It is works because i am using exclusive keyboard setup.

You can auto complete domain name in address bar using hotkeys:

Alt+F1 - auto complete with ".com" and "www." before then Go

Alt+F2 - auto complete with ".net" and "www." before then Go

Alt+F3 - auto complete with ".org" and "www." before then Go

Shift+F1 - auto complete with ".com" without "www." before then Go

Shift+F2 - auto complete with ".net" without "www." before then Go

Shift+F3 - auto complete with ".org" without "www." before then Go

INSTALL

=====

Go to Preferences -> Advanced -> Shortcuts -> Keyboard setup, Press "Edit" button

Go to section Advanced -> Edit Widget and add these new shortcuts:

For auto complete domain with "www." before:

Shortcut | Action

F1 alt | Go to line end & Insert, ".com" & Go to line start & Insert, "www." & Go

F2 alt | Go to line end & Insert, ".net" & Go to line start & Insert, "www." & Go

F3 alt | Go to line end & Insert, ".org" & Go to line start & Insert, "www." & Go

For auto complete domain without "www." before:

Shortcut | Action

F1 shift | Go to line end & Insert, ".com" & Go

F2 shift | Go to line end & Insert, ".net" & Go

F3 shift | Go to line end & Insert, ".org" & Go

I have a better idea:

Go to Bookmark -> Bookmark page. Enter Gmail.com in the adress field. Now the tricky part: In the Nickname field enter: gmail (or whatever you want).

Now you can write "gmail" in your adressbar and Opera will open the bookmark associated with that nickname.

I have lots of "nicknames" connected to my Bookmarks. It's very time saving.

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.

      Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
