      The last build of Opera which will run on Vista or XP is 36.0.2130.80; you cannot run a later version without at least Windows 7.

        Thanks, sgunhouse. I thought that might be the case.

          Are Opera still providing any security updates to Opera 36?
          They said they would for an unspecified period when they had to drop support for XP and Vista, but it's been a very long time now since the last one!
          Would they announce if it had now officially been abandoned?
          Opera 36 already won't display some secure sites.
          😞

            Zoom:
            How can I increase the number of steps available to the zoom function? I'd like to have 5% increments between 125% and 150%

              As far as I know, you can't.

                  Opera v. 47.
                  I want my own avatar for my posts, so I clicked on my generic avatar. Do I have to learn about Gravatars and coding to make my own/

                    Are you talking about your avatar in this forum?
                    If so, this should be in the forum issues section.
                    As far as I know you can still only have a personalised avatar here by using Gravatar.
                    🙂

                      Hi, I use AeroGlass and transparency in the skin not once you get the native skin Windows 10, or just have to use a different browser in the end.

                        Is it or will it be possible to use standard window management? (Standard title bar, window borders, etc?)

                            From what I can tell, Opera uses a custom title bar and window borders, meaning that it doesn't play so well with window managers like autohotkey, at least in Windows 7. Is there some way to restore the system title bar and borders?

                              Nope, you can't restore what wasn't there.

                                  Maybe because that extension hasn't been updated in the last 1 year? Maybe because Youtube has changed its layout?

                                      Not exactly an Opera issue, you probably got a malware in your computer. Try running some anti-malware and anti-virus software.

                                          Asking its author(s) to update the extension?

                                            Can't happen to find the official Opera blue-white wallpaper with the mountain and the cloud above it, with the polygon look. Does anyone know where to find it? Or maybe some good pal has saved it to his drive? 😛 Thanks in advance.
