Yeah, I have it too...but I only download podcasts from TWIT.TV, and [so far] right-click and 'resume' and the download finishes.

Dunno why; 'WEFT' {Wrong, Every Flippin' Time}

Can't help ya with web-site comparisons, but from Day to Day, I have YET to find a browser that has as SUPER a Book Mark Managing Feature. Now, not everyone has, nor needs, a bunch of bookmarks, but if you DO...Shift-Control-B brings up an amazing ability for Folders, Sub-Folders, etc. If you have a couple hundred, it is great.

I never found such as arrangement in Google-Chrome [maybe I just missed it... oh, well]....

Ola. Buenos Noches.

Ignore the Speed Dial icon. I use the ' + ' sign on the tab bar to open the Speed Dial, but I only use that for opening a new tab. For me it is easier than Control T.... but that is just my choice.

[I choose to not actually use Speed Dial for anything else; Book Marks are my choice]

That's terrific news...So glad I could be of help [doesn't happen often]....

Maybe you have some 'whiz-bang runs in Real Time all the time' AV/Malware program that has to scan each file as the browser opens?

It's a wonderful browser...I'm running '33 Goof-Proof.... Although I don't use Speed Dial [just bookmarks], and no AV/Malware program [except the Full Body Intenet Condom called Sandboxie]

Take a peek into the Slower-Downers and good luck.

Hmmm... WIN10 issue? They play perfectly on my WIN7 with '33 [which I really like]

Oh... Forgot. Before complete deletion, go to App Data, ROAMING {NOT 'Remote'...that was incorrect}, copy off your Bookmarks files! You can re-insert them after your successful reinstall.

Very sorry your problem. Not an expert but when I have un installed a program like a browser, I do these things:

Uninstall, in the Control Panel / Delete the program folder from the C Drive Programs (x86) for 32 bit / Go to User App Data folders [Local and Remote], delete the program folders / Get to "regedit" {hopefully you know what that means} and get to both HKEY_Current_User and HKEY_Local-Machine, deleting the everything you see THAT SAYS 'OPERA'.

Again, I'm no expert but I've done this to totally uninstall a program...then, after a Restart I've never had any trouble Re-Installing.

Best of luck; Others many have different/better ideas for you....

Have you tried WIN-10? I did, two L/T and a PC; remaining with 'Seven' for the duration........

Why wait? I've been running 33 for a couple weeks...totally flawless! Not a single 'issue', and finally the BookMark Folders permit SUB-Folders...[small thing, but SO handy]

Climb on, Jimmy....... I think you will be glad you did

'33' does it all...and well. So glad I ventured into 'Developer' version!

I run Sandboxie 4.20...with 'Drop Rights' enabled; don't have the problem [[yet]]....and I do occassionally get some notice of something that wants to run the the 'box...which I don't give permission

??

Sure sorry...My '33 installed just fine and runs solid. Windows Seven.

I do run with NO A/V and Sandboxie 4.20... I disable the sandbox when installing a program, then re-start S/B...and 'no worries'...

Hope it works for you.

As a sort of 'follow-up', from my own learning [as guided by people here], it appears the conditions of triggering the running of Auto-Update could easily be 'jiggered' to the point where auto-updater almost doesn't run. Personally, I never even FOUND any command line for disabling...unless I was looking at it and just don't know enough to realize it!

Frankly, I fail to understand any reason to NOT be kept current...but 'different strokes'

Thank You. You taught me a lot, here, and I appreciate it....

With both 31 and 33 installed, I see there remains the one(1) Opera Automatic Updater line in my Task Scheduler.

Does that mean the BOTH browsers updaters are triggered by what is in that command line?

BRAVO !!

That did the trick. Never would have thought of it that way, myself. If 'twere possible I'd E-Mail you a Dale's Ale...

Thanks

Oh, yes...I live [essentially] on the side of a mountain; within ten miles N or S I can go from Salt Water to a 5000 foot mountain top,so the temps vary widely and I try to use a station somewhere near my elevation.

I ran WIN10 [preview version] on two L/T and one PC...........before concluding I'd ride out my career in Windows 7.....

BUT, Opera [I think '30'] ran just fine. I do disable Windows Defender, run no A/V, but do run Sandboxie 4.20.

Opera installed fine and ran great both in and out of the Sandbox.

Don't know what YOU have there, but that's the story on what I had.......

[More egg]

Just checked with my Brand New WIN7 L/T...which has nothing Non-Stock installed except SKYPE and Opera...and the result is the same.

Must BE that URL, eh?

[Shudda checked that...'egg on face']

I don't have Chrome installed on this computer, but Old I.E.11 wont 'hold' a WX station selection, either [holds the Celsium selection]

I've been using a different home page URL for some time, but remembered I used Wunderground back in my Op 12.17 days; that's why I tried it.

Problem must be related to that URL and the 'new' browser versions... You think ?
