@leocg said in Opera 106.0.4998.19 Stable update:

@chappie12345 Chromium stopped supporting MacOS 10.13 and 10.14. Being Opera a Chromium based browser, I guess you will need to have a newer version of the OS (10.15?) to install more recent versions of Opera.

So why all the false messages? Why does my installed version suddenly give me daily notifications about needing to download the latest version? Why does this website falsely report that the latest version is compatible with my operating system? My Os hasn't changed at all in years so all this mayhem has been caused by Opera. I never asked for any Opera updates: they kept coming though until they messed up. Why is it OK to give me grief and waste my time? Very disappointing. Very unprofessional.

Just to add, I get an Opera notification every time I launch my installed 102.0.4880.46 version, telling me to update - but when I look in About Opera it tells me I'm up to date already. So what is the truth? And how do I kill the spurious notifications?

What's going on? I download the version you recommend - 106.0.4998.19 - for my system (High Sierra 10.13.6) and the installer file won't open because my system doesn't support it! So you have bundled a compatible app with an incompatible installer! I've been messed around for weeks by Opera which keeps relaunching after I quit (even after manually resetting the lists). Is this the end of the road?

@abctix - thanks, that works.

@gmiazga - thanks, updating lists seems to have fixed it.

While I applaud your update and bug fix releases, I feel they are becoming so frequent as to be annoying. Is there an argument for fewer updates which are more exhaustively beta-tested before going 'Final'?

[And if you're still with me, could we please have a configurable Zoom +/- button for the toolbar? On my 5k iMac, almost every page needs to be zoomed.]

Can anyone tell me the most recent version of Mac Opera which doesn't have this bug - and how to then stop Opera auto-updates?

I am. Safari is pretty much broken in High Sierra and Opera used to be an excellent alternative. But recent crashes, bugs and bloating are likely forcing me onto Chrome which I keep trying to avoid.

It's happening here for the past week on MacOs High Sierra. Impossible to quit Opera without it immediately auto-relaunching. I get far too many Opera updates but this bug goes unfixed.

If it's not fixed by next week I obviously can't use Opera again.
