@nvmjustagirl And you can't install in portable mode because....?

A Former User @leocg

@leocg after d/l 'n offline 64 set up from opera blog then click 'n on exe it - it loads up - after choose 'n the usb option - then it just never does not follow thru with the install.. on the hard drv

one other thing - it does Create the folder (Opera developer) in the folder you chose at options but no other files or folders like - profile, dev version folder, ect.. - example C:\ Browser\Opera developer - nothing else is installed

the offline from the ftp - same problem

Note : offline 64 setup exe for Dev 67.0.3541.0 works fine less than 7 sec to install on hard drv..

I tested with https://ftp.opera.com/ftp/pub/opera-developer/67.0.3554.0/win/Opera_Developer_67.0.3554.0_Setup_x64.exe. It has the correct sha256sum of "c7f37633d09bc7fa61a03e4807622eb4ec474f36f40a5782652aedbf8cc15cb7" and installs fine as a standalone installation for me on Windows 10.

Same thing goes for the link on the desktop team blog.

Do you still have the problem?

A Former User @burnout426

@burnout426 thankyou i will try soon

A Former User @burnout426

@burnout426 the test ya did i assume you did the usb standalone Portable..

if so try installing w/o internet lol for sum reason it trys to connect to get the package part.. lol

probaly when ya tested ya was online..

once you d/l the offline Setup_x64.exe it should be good to go w/o internet..

i think its messed up and trys a online setup.. lol

here is error pic

gunna look for log file to see that what i'm say 'n is right..

A Former User @Guest

found log file.. here is the last few lines of it..

It wanna d/l the (full package)

ok i did a 7zip extract to see if the (full package) is built in the offline file.. as ya can see Directory is not in order..

i had to make the 67.0.3541.0 Folder..

then drag/drop everything else where the files and folders need to be..

when i was done.. i clicked launcher exe and is work 'n great ! lol

so (full package) is built in and does not need to be d/l.. lol

bottom line - sumthing about the offline file is not work 'n like it should..

@nvmjustagirl said in Dev offline 64 bit setup problem?:

the test ya did i assume you did the usb standalone Portable..

I clicked "options" in the installer, set "install path" to a new folder on my desktop and set "install for" to "Stand-alone installation USB", and installed. It worked fine even when disconnected from the net. I tried upgrading a standalone installation while disconnected from the net also. Worked fine there too.

I didn't try the "Opera Portable USB" download from https://www.opera.com/download though as that's a net installer and does require a net connection.

found log file.. here is the last few lines of it..

I'd guess that you need to clear all Opera folders and files from "%TEMP%", "%windir%\temp" and the folder your downloaded the installer to. That should fix things.

@nvmjustagirl Were you using the offline installer?

A Former User @leocg

@leocg yes used the offline installer..

am tryna explain like this to you and burnout..

step 1 - ok i made a directory called : C:\Portable\Browsers\Opera developer

step 2 - installed this file called - (Opera_Developer_67.0.3541.0_Setup_x64.exe)

from here - (https://blogs.opera.com/desktop/) the file is on right side of the blog page..

step 3 - used the USB option.. and - installed in a folder called - (C:\Portable\Browsers\Opera developer)

no problem, works like all previous versions (same procedure)

here is a pic of the work 'n directory of Opera 's Dev 67.0.3541.0 portable 64 bit..

ok Now here comes the Weird Part.. lol

if i delete the directory C:\Portable\Browsers\Opera developer)

and install (Opera_Developer_67.0.3554.0_Setup_x64.exe)

and use the same directory and procedure for the install (as stated above - step 1/2/3}

i get this error.. tryna to install Portable 64 Opera dev 67.0.3554.0

i never have had this error before do'n the same procedures with previous versions (dev or stable)..

Here what i did lately to install the newest dev..

if i delete the directory - (C:\Portable\Browsers\Opera developer) - it gives that error thingy..

so i re - installed (67.0.3541.0)

use 'n same directory (C:\Portable\Browsers\Opera developer)

then installed (67.0.3554.0) on top..
pic looks like this..

a button for Upgrade.. lol

both version folders are there !.. and it works..

i do not understand why it works do 'n it that way and not work the other way.. n e ways am gonna delete it..

Do not trust after it tried to connect as soon as i began install, for sumthing the setup file aready had..

it just soppost to Extract not Download n e thing !..

too damn sneaky opera !..

@burnout426 - to your post i took a look @ temp files and their're loads of them.. gunna Wait till the next version and see how it goes.. lol

im clean sum of that mess up..

but i believe next verson will work right for mee (hopeful..

all other versions install ok except that one.. n e other time opera would've had 1 ready to go.. lol

@nvmjustagirl Most probably the installer isn't being able to create the directory, so it shows the error message.
Try running it as administrator and check if the problem happens.

A Former User @leocg

@leocg good ideal.. even tho i have never had to do that way before

will try in a while thankyou again for post 'n that !..

@nvmjustagirl Is the user account you're running the installer with an admin account or a normal user account?

You could right-click on the "Browses" folder and check the security to make sure the account in question has write permissions.

A Former User @burnout426

sorry been run 'n behind..

@leocg & @burnout426 i checked permission to write and i can..

btw right clicked the file - windows reported - SHA256: C7F37633D09BC7FA61A03E4807622EB4EC474F36F40A5782652AEDBF8CC15CB7

number do match (in reference to your post burnout), even tho its all Caps..

have not cleaned the %Temp and stuff..

i never could get the offline installer (Opera_Developer_67.0.3554.0_Setup_x64.exe)

to install the Option (USB) to the directory -
(C:\Portable\Browsers\Opera developer)
it kept tryna go online to download the (Full Package).. as the opera log file showed.. lol

Note - the offline exe already has the (full Psckage) Built-in so there was no need to d/l..

Note - when do 'n the Option (USB) it only suppost to Extract the files - to the Directory of your Choice.. esp. if your not online to begin with..

So to make it more interesting !..

i re-done install again after a re-boot And this time - while being online..

Note - wanna to see if firewall stops the attempted Connection of the offline exe to d/l the (full Package) or if it does complete the d/l ! lol

Firewall stopped it again ! !..

n e ways am pleased to say that the
(Opera_Developer_67.0.3564.0_Setup_x64.exe)

installed the Option (USB) Sucessfully !..

to the (questionable?) directory of
(C:\Portable\Browsers\Opera developer)..

use 'n the same steps (1/2/3) same (precedure) as stated in the prior posts above..

Note - no doubt the offline file (Opera_Developer_67.0.3554.0_Setup_x64.exe) was a bad file 4 me even tho the (SHA-256) matched..

Also i insatalled the new 66 stable in a different directory Too !..

Ok Now - since the (Opera_Developer_67.0.3554.0_Setup_x64.exe)

Was too damn sneaky ! *seriously..

i'v made a few more Firewall Rules for the Opera Stable 66

Outbound rules & inbound rules even tho Windows Firewall suppost to take care Inbound..

here is pics..

Inbound

Outbound

rules are work 'n gr8 ! gunna do dev next..

only bad thing.. Seriously - is when their 's a new opera then the firewall rulez will need to be done over..
