"Opera is based on Chromium, which has decided to stop supporting NPAPI plug-ins. For now it still works (in Opera 32), but it might stop working in Opera 33 or 34. Opera will try to keep this working for as long as possible. You can find more details here: http://blog.chromium.org/2014/11/the-final-countdown-for-npapi.html"

Thanks for this, where can I find any indication of the release schedule of Opera? Need to try and gage how much time I have before this will stop working.

Hi,

I've just noticed a toolbar appear when using my VPN link, about the Java plugin being un supported soon. Does anyone have any official word from Opera on this? I couldn't find anything that gives any more details.

We had to switch from Chrome just recently after they blocked NPAPI, and now it seems Opera might be going down the same route. Any info anyone has would be much appreciated as this could have big implications for our business!

Thanks,
Nathan
