Another minor issue has popped up in my new iteration of Opera thatI worked on.

Each time I open and close Opera, in the Opera Stable folder I get a new file, written...for instance named::

ssdfp5712.0.261850144
ssdfp4172.0.418148836

Etc etc.

Each of those files, when opened with Notepad, are exactly the same::

What is going on with this?? Am I going to have to visit this folder and continue to delete these files? Looks to me Opera doesn't like one of my extensions, or is it something else?

Actually if I look at that content, all the numbers listed are version #s of some of my extensions, why is Opera not liking those extensions??

I may have to go back to square one, and just do without videos on nbcnews and espn.

is there any way to reorder the extensions shown to the right of the address bar??

Nope, it has been a long time request.

I ran Opera with an empty Opera Stable directory.

Copied my bookmarks file(s) from the old directory to this one. Got my Speed Dials copied from "Other Speed Dials"...which became available when the bookmarks were copied there.

Installed individually each extension I had before, which when install were lacking ANY option settings. I then copied ALL the folders (only folders) from the old setup to the new Opera Stable and everything now works, don't ask my how I came up with this, but it worked.

Thanks guys

(While I'm here, is there any way to reorder the extensions shown to the right of the address bar??)

I guess if I have to, I can try to install ALL the extensions I have in the original Opera install, but that is a LOT of work, in addition trying to remember ALL the option settings in each.

I assume I click on the "Extensions" folder,

Yep. Inside it, go to one of the extensions folder (one with lots of letters and numbers) and then select the sub-folder with the version number of the extension.

I assume I click on the "Extensions" folder, because there are a few other folders that have the name "extension" in them..."Extension Rules" "Extension State" and another couple FILES, "Extension Cookies" "Extension Cookies-Journal"

it seems to me there MIGHT be a way for me to get Opera to "see" those extensions by overwriting the now empty (or missing) extension folders.

Go to the extensions manager, turn on 'Developer mode' and click on 'Load unpacked extension'.

In the dialogue window, look for the extension folder in the old profile and select the (sub)folder with the version number. Click 'OK'.

It should 'import' the extension into the new profile.

ALL of my Speed Dials are gone.

Have you checked 'Bookmarks Manager > Other Speed Dials'?

Plus ALL of my Speed Dials are gone. (Many)

Addendum, I found my Speed Dials from the old folder, now I have them put in correctly. All I need now is to find a way for Opera to find my extensions, and I would be good to go, I have ALL my bookmarks, bookmark bar is set up, just the extensions, without having to find them, install them individually, and configure each of them like I had before.

What a mess.

Ok, what I did was renamed the Opera Stable folder, and then booted Opera (which created a new Opera Stable folder default folders and files).

is creating a new profile folder. It is correct.

What I came up with was when I replaced the new "Preferences" file with the older, larger version that was in the original Opera Stable folder, the video does not run. So I've now isolated the problem.

And there is where you screwed up. The preferences file is damaged. It is the source of your problems. DO NOT USE IT. Use the preference file created from the new profile.

if there is anyone out there who can school me regarding editing my Opera "preferences" file, please step forward...there is something in there that disallows me from playing videos on http://www.nbcnews.com/ as well as http://www.espn.com/

Thanks

Because in that file there is a very high number of references to individual websites etc. I don't have a clue where those particular preferences came from.

What I came up with was when I replaced the new "Preferences" file with the older, larger version that was in the the original Opera Stable folder, the video does not run. So I've now isolated the problem.

If I delete the "Preferences" file, a LOT of my stuff is gone as Opera creates a new default one, so I don't want to do that...all my Speed Dial entries, etc. are missing and other stuff

Now I've got to figure out what it is in that Preferences file that is messing with the videos. The file has a LOT of stuff in it (opened with notepad) and I have no idea as to how to isolate the line(s) that are creating the problem...Help??

Ok, I Dled the beta, and yes the videos DO play...what should I do?? I could simply keep beta and use it, but I'll bet when it goes stable and it gets installed over current Opera, the problem will continue.

Help

Then try out Opera without a profile, if the video plays we can take it from there bit by bit, and if the video still doesn't play, I just copy the contents of the folder back...and I will have everything as before??
