<![CDATA[installing separate Version of Opera 25]]>Hi,
is there a way to install an independent version of Opera 25.
In terms of, that I have 2 possible instances of Opera, the one I am using right now, and a separate one that I use without any influence to and from the other installed Opera.

I won't run both instances of Opera at the same time.
Maybe see it as a way to test out new versions before I update my running Opera

Thanks in advance for the help 🙂

\m/ Opera for live \m/

was looking at it, I kinda read the 3rd entry as "install for the other user" this PC has 😃

Thank you very much.
hooray

Btw, the English UI is way more clear on that "stand-alone" topic, compared to the German version

So I am still at fear that it will interfere with my other Opera installation.

ahh ok, if this really prevents the issue that both Opera versions try to write on the same folders (that is shared or system things) than my issue is solved.

It does prevents the shring of profiles as each standalone install uses its own profile folder inside its install folder and not the one at %appdata%.

Run the installer and choose standalone installation.

BUT, what if not?
Is Opera smart enough to see, "hey my normally folders and path and registry things are already in use. Leave them alone and make me separate ones"?!

@linuxmint,
well I used a portable version of the 9 Version years ago in university as it was not possible to install any kind of program.

Just get a portable version, like Opera@USB. The download is version 22 but you can update it easily enough to the current release.

Why would someone want to download a third-party hack of a commercial product when the official installer achieves exactly the same thing ?.
