@leocg Hi Leo.
Can't download .3218 from O-Menu >Update & Recovery
Can't download .3218 from O-Menu >Help >About Opera.

Download dev update .3218 starts in both places then stops at 46% [in both places] every time.

I've run all maintenance programs and dev still wont update.

(Note for devs - this problem happened some time ago on one update stream where an update was crashing for some users, including me. The next update cured that issue).

Just run the installer, it should fix the problem.

@leocg Thanks Leo. Already tried that.
I ended up removing all traces of previous dev version, then successfully downloaded dev stream.

Only issue I presently have with latest dev version is when I attempt to do anything with it (including on Opera itself), it crashes within a couple of minutes - but I know that dev is always build in progress. Opr devs may need to be aware of this.

OS Windows7 Pro 32-bit.
Having to send this from beta as dev keeps crashing.
(As an aside, beta update downloaded without problem).

Opera dev 59.0.3209.0 crashed at 46% every time whilst trying to update to .3218.0.
Dev .3218 crashed every time at around 46% whilst trying to update to .3228.

Deleting profile and restarting did not help, nor did running the installer. The crashing issue persisted when .3218 was in use, so I again cleared the system of all traces of dev .3218 as I did its previous update (mentioned above).

Successfully downloaded dev .3228 from beta, and dev no longer crashes when in use (this posted from dev .3228). Dev appears more stable with the latest update. We'll have to wait for the next dev update to check if the bugs are out.

Well done to Opera Devs.
As an aside, for me, the colour at the top is yuk! Just my opinion.
The layout at the top is much better, as is the O-Menu. Thank you.
