Is there a power adapter that works for all plug type pairs (A to O)?

From what I can see, the O plug is only used in Thailand ?
The internet say you could use a C, E and F plug. So, look for those kind of adaptor ?

Adapting the voltage would require a transformer; they are available and heavy and for most electronics it's not necessary. Kettles and similar heating elements, Oral-B wireless chargers for toothbrushes and such are not dual voltage.
As for the plug shape since you linked grounded plugs as well the answer is really easy because there is only one (perhaps copied by the Chinese and relabeled by Tumi and perhaps others but still) plug shape adapter which can convert grounded adapters universally: the Skross World Traveller Pro. OK, I lied it's a series and Skross also has a Pro Lite series but these are basically the same. Look at the specs and all the shapes it allows for:
It has two parts, first it converts everything to a Schuko:
then it converts a Schuko to everything:
these parts are available and usable separately -- but they can be put together to form a single adapter:
It's ingenious quality Swiss engineering.
If you want two poles only then the Mogics Bagel + adapter that JonathanReez partially linked is indeed the best.

I am aware of one such adapter, called Adapter 1, by an American company called MOGICS. Unfortunately it only accepts US plugs:
Otherwise there are plenty of plug adapter kits on Amazon:
It's quite a bit more bulky but I'm guessing you're not constantly moving between distant parts of the world, so one at a time should be more than enough. You may also consider getting a new plug adapter whenever you fly into a new country - they're usually ubiquitous at airports.

Electrical sockets and plugs have more attributes than just the arrangement of pins, the distances between them, pin length and pin form. The different types of sockets and plugs are not only commonly used with, but also designed for different voltages, power limits and different safety requirements. It is simply not possible to safely adapt between arbitrary sockets and plugs unless you know exactly what you are doing, and to be frank, a common consumer does not know what he is doing when dealing with electricity.
Let us for example take a look at the type D and type M connectors. Type D connectors are designed for a maximum current of 5A, while type M connectors are designed for a maximum current of 15A. If you have a type D socket and an appliance with a type M plug, even with a physically matching adapter, you may risk that the socket is overloaded if the appliance draws more than 5A. That may have many interesting side effects, the socket or the wiring may catch fire, or melting insulation may allow access to live conductors and cause electrical shock.
