I have installed this latest portable version. It's not a bad browser, but I don't really like it. Just trying to configure it gives me a headache, the settings seems to be chaotic. Also, whatever happened to the VPN button in the adress-bar, can you get that back?

 

Just enable VPN in Opera's settings:

 

My bad, I didn't know that the button would show up once enabled. I think it's one of the most interesting features, the problem is, on older versions of Opera it simply stopped working. And yes I know, it's not a true VPN, but may come in handy sometimes.
