Try as I may, I can't sync your quote reference to anything up above.

It's from this comment

Aaack! O.O I must have looked at that particular post a dozen times and, for some reason, never recognized the part you quoted. My apologies...!

installing Opera30 whatever the version you choose

Opera is probably just autoupdating. You need to disconnect from the internet before installing Opera, then rename opera_autoupdate.exe and renove the autoupdate task from the task manager to disable the autoupdate.
After that you can reconnect and use Opera.

After version 12 Opera released with version 15 a totally new browser and the versions between 19 and 24 are not so different from version 30.

When reading your first post I realised that all functions you described are functions from Opera 12 and they are not longer part of Opera beginning with version 15.

No one else is having the issues you evidently are having. To express your anger at leo and at Opera for your own ignorance is inexcusable.

For the passwords new system, is it like others navigators (IE, i hate you!) : when you want to delete , if you had only one registered, it becomes impossible to "save" another password, the navigator never ask you if you want to save? Or is Opera clever?

Afaik if you change your login credentials, Opera will ask if want to save the new one.

And if somebody could ask my question, i would be a very very very happy girl :

Is it a place where i can find a version between 19 and 24 of Opera? On the archives of Opera's site, there is only version 12.... very old!!!

And since the Wand is gone, there is no password protection for our passwords/logins, what a nice security hole.

Your passwords are encrypted using your OS credentials.

The new glitzy format is just not for me so I will be migrating to another browser, non-chrome based. With all the other issues of the new and improved Opera I am finding it somewhat difficult to move those items remaining from Opera to any other browser. Is that part of the improved set up? or am I overlooking something?

Times change and so does software.

I agree! Perhaps in a few years extensions are unnecessary... 😉

I don't like extension because if there is a problem with the browser in most cases it's the fault of an extension.

But each to his own. The point is newrock106 asked "is the ctrl+enter function disappeared?" and nobody explained to him that the wand is gone so I did the job. 😃

And how wand would be related to this topic?

Because newrock106 asked for that feature (Ctrl + Enter)? Unfortunately (at least for me) it is not any longer part of the Opera Browser since Opera 15.

Because it's no longer necessary, as Opera automatically fills the username and password fields like all other browsers.

  • Not possible. Maybe using an extension.
  • There is no menu bar
  • What ctrl enter should do?
  • enable power user mode in settings and you will find the option to remove it.
