@sgunhouse said in Opera crashes when trying to save file or page.:

Does the directory listed as your downloads directory in Settings actually exist? And is it owned by your user account?

Yes. Yes.

Oops! Crash!

Looks like I typed in the path earlier, and now I tried to click "Change" to get a "Download location" dialog box, and, trumpets, opera crashed few seconds after I clicked "Cancel".

It looks like opera crashes either instantly or in 3-5 seconds after closing "Save As" dialog box, both "Save" and "Cancel" cause the crash.

During typing this post I used Ctrl-S shortkey in Firefox several times to lookup button and dialog labels and had no problems with it.

@dougwilson Unless it's different in Linux, Opera doesn't have a setting to clean things up on close.
Check on Menu > Downloads.

Hi, we removed the "+" button, but you can still right-click on Bookmarks Bar and select "Add a Page"
Opera doesn't recognize system proxy on fedora 26

After one or two restarts, the "libnotify" error came back, and Opera became slow to start again.
To fix it, I started the daemon "xfce4-notifyd" with:
" systemctl --user start xfce4-notifyd.service"
and I put it on the start up. What 's good !
But Opera doesn't recognize proxies anyway ☹ .
See you...

Thanks for the info! I made the change you suggested but I still encountered the problem. It's not a big deal. I still love Opera anyway, 🙂

Thanks again!

@operaalpha It was already discussed and answered.
VPN used to be provided by a third-party company previously owned by Opera and now is provided by Opera itself and they decided to implement some changes.

And no, you can't get the old drop-down menu back.

Strange, I thought it was Ukrainian. Google decided that all Opera VPN search results should be Ukrainian, makes sense ads by Google would be the same.

Yesterday, I noticed that nearly five new bookmarks appeared in Speed Dial. That were Google, Yandex, Booking. I don't want to see them in my Speed Dial. I think that it is not a good behavior of browser.

In general, you can force the sue of a specific cursor theme with a line like this ~/.Xdefaults
Xcursor*theme: DMZ-White

As usual, If the file does not exist, create it. However, I do not know if opera will follow that enforcement.

Hi all🙂 ,
I run fedora 26 on xfce environment. Opera needs a special flash. I installed this: "# dnf install flash-player-ppapi", now I can watch videos and more images. I hope to be useful for you.
Sorry for my English.

@cybrsaylr Tried Vivaldi and it is as you said. Tested it on http://247games.org. Now I have a browser where I can play my favorites without having to switch browsers. Vivaldi's lack of VPN does not matter since the Opera VPN does not function. Now would be the time to try out Opera Turbo as it conflicts with VPN. By the way, http://www.247hearts.com/ does not play in Firefox. http://www.247slots.org/ does not play in Google Chrome, but does play in Chromium. http://www.247spades.com/ does not play in Chromium. The programmers for the website are working to make all the games playable in all the browsers, but they are not there yet. So far, a couple of the games that did not play before now play well, but Vivaldi is the only browser in which all the games play. Thank you so very much for the Vivaldi reference.
