For Windows experts only: How to find the unique Opera device_id associated with my setup?
How to find the unique Opera device_id associated with my specific setup?
This is a Windows question - for Windows experts only - the question has absolutely nothing (per se) to do with Opera browsers or web proxies or even vpn and security. It's a Windows question for Windows experts only: ' How to find the unique Opera device_id associated with my specific setup? This question can only be answered by a Windows expert. Anyone, like I am, who is not a Windows expert, will never answer it. I'm not at all sophisticated so maybe it's impossible for Windows users to find their unique device-id, but I would like to ask if there any Windows experts on this newsgroup who can conceive of a good way on Windows to find the unique Opera browser "device-id"? I tried Wireshark and Telerik Fiddler, but the amount of data is overwhelming so I need to better filter out to see what's being transmitted. Assuming I'm not the only person on the planet who asks this question, I tried looking it up but the question has never been asked before, to my knowledge - hence there are no answers to this specific question on the net. (Or if it has been asked, I can't find the answer.) For example the unique-to-the-user opera ID is explained, but not how to identify your own particular unique id. https://www.helpnetsecurity.com/2016...ser-vpn-proxy/ I do realize that many non expert people will try to talk me out of a proxy, but that's not the question in the least. (If I wanted to be talked out of a proxy, I wouldn't be asking this basic question seeking a Windows expert who knows how to find a unique device_id.) Ghacks says the unique device-id is the "same ID that Opera has been using for a long time" so it should be known by Windows experts how to find it: https://www.ghacks.net/2016/04/26/a-...s-browser-vpn/ Perfect Privacy says the "device_id is sent to the proxy for every browsing request and will remain permantly tied to the browser." https://www.perfect-privacy.com/blog...-not-real-vpn/ I've scoured the net for a Windows-expert method to identify the exact device-id used. I can't find a method. This is not a proxy question - nor even a browser question - nor even a security question - it's simply a Windows question for Windows experts only: How to find the unique Opera device_id associated with my exact setup? |
