        Is there a thread in which folks complain about Opera's obnoxious attempts to get us to accept cookies and ads (this despite their other seeming attempts to present themselves as a privacy browser)? First one must click past Manage cookies, eschewing the attempt to allow them during download, then, if installing, again one must deselect four check boxes allowing more ads and cookies. And of course, one's such choices are not remembered. Ugh.

          And again for the third day in a row my browser was again autoupdated to this bug of 102 version where nothing works. Looks like it's gonna become a daily ritual of uninstalling 102 version and installing 101 version because you can't get your shit together.

                @bigone201 I can't understand your problem.
                If you have 101.0.4843.58, there currently is no auto-update as it was de-activated until there is a new version.

                  @keybass Known bug if you read the comments and especially these of the mods.
                  Just uninstall version 102 and install version 101.

                      @simonov-89 I uninstalled version 102 and installed version 101 again.
                      Since then, at least since Thursday last week it says Opera is up-to-date when I check for an update.

                        @mathias87 I did too, but the browser updated anyway.

                          Exactly. When you check the autoupdate it says it up to date. But I still get every day a red dot on the Opera logo and it says to restart the browser to get the latest version (which means it was already installed by itself). And the next time I close the browser it is again at 102 version with nothing working.

                          Then I uninstall the 102 version in Windows, install the lastest 101 version and I'm ok for the day. The next day it is again automaticaly updated to 102 version. It happened for three days in the rown now and from the comments I'm not the only one.

                          So whatever they did or didn't disable ... it's not working.

                            I think I found the problem for every day updates ... It looks like Kaspersky Internet Security with its software updater updates Opera to 102 version everyday as I just look at that and ran it and says it found an update (102) for Opera. Where does Kaspersky finds this update I don't know as that is something for Opera developers to fix.

                                @bigone201 Well, one of the reasons why I don't use any security software.
                                Windows Defender is enough.

                                      @celticcross After over 20 years with opera (!) I started now with vivaldi and this one behaves like opera is supposted to do.

                                      Opera, what a pity!

                                        @beorn1 Good luck with it! Have you been to the Vivaldi forums ‚ lately? They‘re always filled with really lots of issues. Some have been there for years like the need mit manually resize the window when you fire it up on Mac.
                                        I‘d been using it for more than four years. It‘s a great browser, definitely. But when you‘re mainly looking for a more hasslefree solution, you‘d easily better off with Opera.

                                            @celticcross I've posted on this before, there are lots of complaints about Vivaldi. Firefox also. Not so many on Edge, not sure if it has enough knowledgeable users.
