      Opera updater pops up and asks for user/pass for our proxy server and doesn't accept anything. Our proxy server uses LDAP and authenticates with our Windows logon credentials. So it shouldn't be asking for authentication at all.

      Chrome updates ok, but I had to add their update URLs to authentication bypass to do it.

      Is there a URL or two I can add to our bypass list to allow Opera to do same?

      I'm an admin guy, so I can do it.

        same here. no autoupdate, no manual-update from 22.0.1471.50 to version 22.0.1471.70 possible.

        risky issue.

          +1 - Please fix (just make updater use the same proxy settings Opera already uses to connect to web sites).

          Same issue in other threads:

              Wow Opera guys, way to fail to even do us the courtesy of replying for 8 months. Disappointed.

                You do know this forum isn't staffed by Opera developers right? Its a user forum. If we simply don't know the answer we can't help you. Sorry we weren't able to help you but its not like Opera has the budget for a full tech support line. Heck, Google has plenty of money and last I checked they don't have it either.

                  If you just want to download the full installer, I can direct you to the FTP site. (Link is to current version, 28.0.1750.40. If you are reading this 8 months from now - when you get there, go up the folders to "desktop" then find the newest version.)

                    it is very old and important issue , I can not understand why Opera devs can not resolve this.

                      I can't understand why you needed to make the same post in 4 different threads.

                        Probably it was an attempt to get developer attention by force-elevating overall visibility of the issue...
