RE: Opening pdf and word document within browser.Opera for Windows
This didn't work for me. I had to download and reinstall the program, then go in and change the settings listed above and now it works. I also had to shut down the browser first. Amazing. It doesn't ask if you want the plug-in, it doesn't go and get it for you.
If you're been a long time user you've probably done all these things, but man, if you're new to this you'd dump it in one or two days.

RE: A Review and What opera Founder von Tetzchner thinksOpera for Windows
For those of you NOT experiencing problems, do this. Save Opera to another folder and start fresh. Look at all the problems, then get back to me.

RE: I've used Opera for 10 years... no more. : (Opera for Windows
I just checked to make sure it's checked. It is.
Also came across another bug (problem). I can't get Opera to save files where I want them (the desktop) even though it's set to save to the desktop. Instead it saves to two different folders and I have no idea why.
I have two passwords saved (after using the program for a few weeks)...and it's not saving any auto complete data....just checked...nothing saved. There's nothing saved from Opera.

RE: A Review and What opera Founder von Tetzchner thinksOpera for Windows
We can only assume rafeulluik is telling the truth. Doing otherwise seems like a waste of my time. I'm having problems. I'm a new user and I have decades of experience using almost every major browser ever created (from alpha to beta to stable releases). I beta tested the very first versions of Chrome....long before 1.0. So I kinda know what I'm doing.
The lack of bookmarks was a huge blow to the way I normally browse since it's what I've alway done but I have to admit I like the speed dial feature which is far better than Chrome. Chrome decides what's on that page, not me. I can edit the page at will, but I can't do that on Chrome anymore. It's what I want in a browser...total control over what it does. Chrome is no longer that browser.

I'm running the program as is and I'm telling you it DOES not save my user name or password. In fact, it doesn't even ask me if I want to.

Great line in the second link. "At Opera we had a slogan that if somebody was better than us, it was a bug."
If that was ever true what an amazing statement. It is not true today. As a new user I can tell you I'm finding problems almost daily. While I'm sure most of them can be fixed at some point, this version of the program should be in beta testing. A stable release should NOT be this unstable.

RE: Opera crashesOpera for Windows
I can wait hours and it still won't work. Just happened again....had to restart the computer and this was after not using the computer for a few hours. Like I've said before I've never seen a program do this before...where it can't restart after being shut down. The program pops up, but it refuses to work.

RE: I've used Opera for 10 years... no more. : (Opera for Windows
I'm forced to use other browsers, something I've never had to do regardless of my browser of choice.
There are many problems. For example, it seldom remembers passwords etc., so I go back to Chrome to do things I'd like to do on Opera. Even for this site it doesn't remember my password and I have enter it each time...what a complete waste of time. Is the website poorly written or the browser?
