Setting Opera as the default browser on a Windows Mobile

I own an HTC Touch HD as was getting a bit annoyed at Internet Explorer being the default browser when selecting links from emails. However, Opera Mobile has a ‘hidden’ configuration screen and can be used to set it as the default :

1. Run Opera
2. Enter ‘opera:config’ in the address bar
3. Find the ‘Install’ section
4. Select ‘Browser First Time Launch’ checkbox
5. Press ‘Save’
6. Soft reset
