@l33t4opera why not make a setting for this? everytime I add stuff to the dial I need to move them cause the newly added ones kill the arrangement when they come on first.

@burnout426 It might also be a mouse hardware issue. my mouse for example has the issue that it sometimes fire a double click instead of a single one, which can happen when the contact of the button isnt perfect.

logging in isnt the problem.

Adding a key is the problem.

while some sites like the yubico demo page spawn on both chrome and opera a notification asking whether the site may get key data, some other sites like github, dropbox or localhost dont spawn such a notification and while they just pass in chrome, opera throws U2F error 1.

more info here:
https://forums.opera.com/topic/26772/u2f-registration-issues

you can also click the wheel if you have one or the middle mouse button if you are on a laptop that has that or such an old mouse.

some laptops also allow to treat click both mousekeys to middle mouse button.

The new opera version introduced issues with Registering U2F devices though.

In Opera 53 stable they apparently tried to make U2F even more secure by pulling out a prompt whenever a page wants to register a U2F token about whether the site may see the "serial number" of the Security key.

but there are 2 problems with that whole thing:

1. apparently this thing is kinda broken and doesnt come down on every site leaving a client error 1 (unknown error) instead
2. The serial number doesnt even get transmitted as U2F sticks usually pull keypairs out of nowhere (aka generating them by using random and deterministic data), the only thing that CAN even remotely trance a U2F stick is the attestation cert, although that isnt always 1 cert per stick (which would also completely crash the anonymity point of U2F)

I have now so far seen this issue on both Github and dropbox, 2 sites which are fairly big, and therefore should really have a proper U2F implementation.

@concretable you totally dont understand what the button does.

it's for selecting a text that is an address but not a clickable link, by that you can avoid copypasting it into the address bar and it's just faster

you select the text, right click and say go to address.

so why is it more secure to have it open a save dialog in comparison to just ask download or not download

this is how it looks with the flag set to no but prompt on risky downloads on active

@leocg said in please bring back show-save-file-dialog-on-risky-download:

Executable files will trigger the save as dialog for you to choose where to save it. In this case, last used folder will be remembered by Windows.

and THIS is the problem, which wasnt there when this flag was still there (or even earlier, default)

but the way it works now is totally ugly, it saves the files somewhere were you last used that save dialog on instead of the folder you have preset for DLs, which is crazy. the other 2 big non-MS browsers (FF and chrome), and even IE, which had been doing this for half an eternity are doing it like that as well. they ask whether to save or not and dont pop up something that defaults to the last location where you for example saved a picture in.

also hadnt been this even standard behavior for a long time?
