@leocg Your post with 6 replies.
Development seems to be on a normal pace for me.
No, it isn't for me. No great inventions, innovations and significant steps forward, lately. But small improvements also stalled. What I reckon I proved - my answer to your views on Opera development.
Your view vs my view. Nothing more, nothing less, as usual.

ralf-brinkmann last edited byI have set up Opera x64 (standalone installation) as the standard browser on my normal desktop PC with Windows 10x64 Pro for ages. Now I wanted to do that on my notebook with Windows 10x64 Home as well. It's not working. Is this new? Any tips?
(I am currently unable to check the desktop PC as it is under repair) -

@ralf-brinkmann You can't set up standalone Opera installation as the default browser. And no, it's not something new.

@ralf-brinkmann Are you sure you are on a standalone installation? Maybe you have done the registry changes manually?

@leocg No, absolutely not. I even don't know where in the registry I had to search.

@leocg Ekhm, it happens I do not understand the expression - standalone installation. I read about it in Net, but as far as Opera is concerned I'm too stupid.
I've gotten Stable, Beta and Developer installed here. Which one of them is so called standalone installation? I can change their default settings in system, but I wouldn't name any of them as a "standalone installation". They are just installed and ready to use.
TIA

Hi @pavelopdev! Standalone installation (in German USB-Installation) means, that everything is in one folder: the program files and subfolders and the profile data. So you can copy the whole Opera folder on an USB stick or another HD or SSD and run it.

@ralf-brinkmann Could you check the paths for that standalone installation? Setting a standalone installation was never possible, simply because the files are, basically, just copied to the installation directory and the program is not even registered so that Window knows that it exists and can use it.

@leocg: Thanks, I got all three Operas now, but next time I have to install new "stream" example from scratch I'll pay attention to installation type selection. For Linux, of course.

@ralf-brinkmann: Thanks a lot! I've never practiced USB installations, there was no need for it. I have installed Debian to memory card several weeks ago only (as backup system ready to work with my data files). On the other hand Opera for GNU/Linux (here Debian) keeps its data in three distinct places, easy to archive and recreate them after local "disaster". Windows version is also backup-able, but who knows about it, not mentioning the need to keep fresh Opera backups everyday.
