@arthurcloud I noticed the same problems, I sent 10 times bug reports to Opera but Opera never answered and fix the problem. If thaht continues, I will stop using Opera browser.

Hello to everybody in the opera community,

I've tried everything, even all the advices given here in the forum but no one is working.
No way to disable the automatic update system of Opera browser for computers running on Windows 7 or Windows 10.

Does someone have "the miracle solution" to fix at 100% this problem ?

Thank you a lot because no one has the solution and can explain how to disable this thing.

@arthurcloud Hello. Is there someone from Opera here ? Because I have exactly the same probleme than you and nobody from Opera does answer. What the hell are they doing ??? Can someone contact them please ???

@arthurcloud Nobody from OPERA did answer to my mails and requests... What about you ?

@sknfer-lmalem Hello, no, the bug was ameliorated but not fixed by Opera who doesnt give a f... for the browser's issues. You have the choice of choosing Mozilla Firefox, or another browser but the screenshot doesnt work with Opera. Very sad thing from Opera.

How to disable the picture to picture video reading with opera browser on Youtube ?
Whatever I do, this option is always existing and it makes me crazy.
I dont want this reading systeme.
Thanks for the help please

@dahotfunk Nobody from OPERA do answer to our claims.... Just unbelievable... The screenshot bug continue...

Hello, I have a big problem.
I had a windows 7 computer for many years. And now I bought a new computer but in windows 10.
I recorded all my bookmarks and passwords in my windows 7 computer with my opera account.
When i moved to the new computer, with windows 10, i tried 10 times to transfer all my bookmarks and passwords, nothing has happened, all my bookmarks have disappeared, nothing is there, despite the synchronisation.
And the option in opera browser doesnt work at all. Impossible to get the old bookmarks, and passwords and fast access vignettes. I am disgussted. What the hell is going on with opera ??? Nothing works with that browser and there is no assistance, no help from anyone working in Opera, exactly as Facebook. Are there human beeings here to help me urgently ???????

@arthurcloud I found a provisional solution : This is an opera's add-on, called Web Clipper: Easy Screenshot : https://addons.opera.com/fr/extensions/details/easy-screenshot/
It works for me.

@leocg I read your advices, I applied them and no one is working...
The automatic update system of the opera browser does always the update, even when the old version is installed...
It seems that no one in the world has the solution to fix that probleme.
Do you know an ingenior working for Opera or Google, who can help us ??
For the moment I cant use the opera browser because the new version is too unstable.
My computer is freezed by the browser opera.

@leocg Hello, all my notifications and discussions has been eraised. Is it normal ?
And second question : Impossible to deposit a question in the forum. Why did you block that ?

@burnout426 These are files of Videos and pictures. With too long names. Impossible to move them or delete them. I will try to contact this forum.

@burnout426 I have now another problem : Impossible to move or delete a file because it has a too long file name. I tried everything and no way. How can I submit this probleme in the forum ?

@burnout426 ok i ll try

@leocg in the opera program files ? yes?

@leocg No i never renamed opera update files, but deleted yes

@burnout426 Ok but when you rename it, how do you do that ?
Can you explain it, step by step ?
As we dont have images, we can not exactly imagine what to do.
Sorry for that, and thanks to you for your help.

@burnout426 said in Impossible to disable the automatic update of Opera browser:

did you rename opera_autoupdate.exe

Heuh no, I did not do that, i just deleted the autoupdate files in the opera folders, then delete the taskfiles in the windows cmd.

How do you rename this file and where is it situated ?

@leocg Since I did the new method, the opera logo in the corner of the browser, has become red.
It recommands me to secure the browser with an update...
Should I do that ??
I guess no..

@leocg said in Impossible to disable the automatic update of Opera browser:

the auto update executable and rename it.

You dont explain how to do that, step by step...

By the way, I noticed a new file in this "opera folder". It's called "Manifest File". Do you know what is it and what is it used for ?
Thanks
