        No changelog

        Tiny fixes and new rendering bugs?

        Security fixes, most probably.

              Because legacy Opera hasn't been auto-updated to newer versions yet.

                Because they consider those versions different products.

                          They're security fixes and another indication that the Opera Team care about its user base.

                            I just tested 12.17.
                            It's same defective release as 12.16. Cookies support has broken, rendering bugs... 12.14 is a version of my choice.

                            Too bad they don't care about quality control anymore :(. At least for Opera Presto browser.

                              You know about Opera's devs internal workflows? Opera 12.x gets security bugfixes.
                              The rest will not be fixed because it's no priority. Opera ASA develops Opüera 20 (Blink) now, you know?

                              Lets see what the upcoming chaneglog will say about fixes.

                                And outlook.com is not working in the x64 version just as in the 12.16 version....

                                    Too bad they accidentally making new bugs with these minor fixes. Making some sites completely unusable (a web-pages which works fairly well in 12.14).

                                    Try 12.14 x64

                                      Try 12.14 x64

                                      Yes, that works, but it was only a missing/defective file in the 12.16 x64 installation file that prevented outlook (and maybe other sites) from working.
                                      It was possible to replace this file with the one from the x86 version.

                                        Yes, use insecure old software like Opera 12.14.

                                          For the amount of sites that work in 12.14 and fail in 12.16 (and I guess 12.17 too), for me, it's worth it. Especially when the functionality between the two is pretty much the same.

                                            Nevermind, just found it: public_domains.dat
                                            Its missing in the x64 installation, you can replace it with the one from the x68 installation.

                                            Yes, use insecure old software like Opera 12.14.

                                            Yes, i will if i want.
