OperaPortable: Taskbar Icon Question

Hello fellow PortableApps. enthusiasts!

I have a simple question:
Is it possible to force OperaPortable to use my Pinned Taskbar Icon?

As it stands right now, when OperaPortable is launched, it creates a new Taskbar Icon next to the Pinned icon.

I have been researching/searching for a resolution to this for many weeks now.
I hope someone can help or atleast give me an answer whether this is possible?

Greatly Appreciative Fan.

This isn't possible and here

This isn't possible and here is the reason why, OperaPortable.exe is a launcher to opera.exe, which in turns means this, it has 2 processes the OperaPortable.exe is invisible but not to the task manager while opera.exe is visible to the taskbar. So in short it's not possible.

it's actually better to use

it's actually better to use the PortableApps.com package as we try to make sure your data does not get left behind, opera@usb and other sites has issues and often times leaves behind information.
