Aria 2.1 (Opera One version: 104.0.4944.33) is still unstable.

I cannot give instructions on how to reproduce that because it seems to happen randomly. But when it happens, it seems to happen when Aria is sending an answer. Halfway the answer, Aria closes and cannot be restarted without restarting the browser. When I restart the browser en continue to work with Aria, it says the answer was interrupted. When I click the Retry button, the answer is displayed without problem and Aria is working OK until it crashes again.

I successfully uninstalled Opera Browser Assistant and it remained uninstalled after my last Opera update from within Opera itself.

Here I will share information about it, so others may benefit from it.

Uninstalling Opera while keeping your personal data and installing Opera again using the Offline Opera Installer no longer works te remove Opera Browser Assistant.
Apparently the installer now detects you had Opera Browser Assistant installed and installs it again.

Here is how I removed Opera Browser Assistant:

• Uninstall Opera without deleting your personal user data.
• Download and run the Offline Opera Installer.
• Do not start the installation yet, but open Explorer and go to the folder:

%localappdata%\Temp\.opera\Opera Installer Temp

• In this folder go to the folder containing the setup files. The folder is named like this:

opera_package_<timestamp>

• Delete the file named "extra_apps".
  In my case Opera Browser Assistant was the only component listed in this file. You may want to edit this file if you have more components listed in this file.
  Alternatively you can remove the folder "assistant" and leave the "extra_apps" file intact.
• You can now close Explorer and continue with Opera Installer.
• Set your preferred options in the Opera Installer and install Opera.

After this, new Opera versions downloaded by the Opera Update feature, no longer seem to include the Opera Browser Assistant package.

Still a white address bar in private mode in dark mode.

Til friday Aria worked fine on each device, now "she's" dead.

Confirmed.

you have to click a Login button,

You mean the opera account popup on the address bar?
If yes, I agree. There should be a direct way to login using the popup instead of redirecting to web page. It should redirect only if someone wishes to create new account.

I mean things like these:

If the user wants to create an account, he has to click Login and then there is no hint for creating an account.

Still not fixed in version 103.0.4928.34.

BTW, when I right-click a bookmark on the bookmarks bar and choose Edit, I get an even worse result:

As with the address bar, this has been the case for a long time.

I filed a bug report for this issue, but an irrelevant automatic response was sent and the bug report was closed automatically. Despite what the confirmation email suggests, I am not able to re-open the bug report by adding additional information to the bug report. And I'm not filing the same bug report again.

Preconditions:

• Already have Aria working in Opera

Issue:

• With Opera pinned to the Windows taskbar, directly open Opera in private mode by right-clicking the icon in the taskbar and choose New private window.
• Open the sidebar and click on the Aria icon.
• Click Get Started
• Click Continue to sign into the Opera account
• Sign into the Opera account.
• → Aria is not working and reloading doesn’t solve it.
• Now, press Ctrl+N to open a normal window (not in private mode)
• Click Get Started
• Click Continue to sign into the Opera account
• Sign into the Opera account.
• Now Aria says:
  ”Thanks for signing up!
  There are many others joining right now, so I’ve added you to the waiting list. I'll notify you in the coming days as soon as access is available.”
• The statement by Aria is false and you can use the Reload button at the top of Aria to start using Aria.

@andrearobinson said in Aria's answer in a blockquote not visible:

It looks like the blockquote height is set too low, causing visibility issues. You can resolve this by using the following steps:

• Right-click on the blockquote, select Inspect Element.
• In the CSS panel, find the blockquote element and change the height to auto or remove the height property altogether.
• Refresh to see if the issue is resolved.

It looks like your post is an AI generated spam post. Your text suggests that you haven't tried it yourself and it makes no sense.

It is already determined in this thread that it is not due to the height that nothing is displayed, but that there is no text in the generated HTML. Furthermore, your suggestion makes no sense because doing a refresh negates the changes you made in the Element Inspector.

Still a white address bar in Opera One version 105.0.4970.13.

Other theme issues are fixed, like the "This tab is playing audio" text, the world map of the VPN setting, editing bookmarks by right-clicking bookmarks in the bookmarks bar.

Still not fixed in version 101.0.4843.43.

@BestCodes
They are not taking it seriously. Bug still present in Aria version 5.2.1

Problem still not solved in version 100.0.4815.47

Plenty of updates further and still no sign of Opera Browser Assistant

@BestCodes said in Aria's answer in a blockquote not visible:

Has a moderator replied to this yet?

No. I also filed a bug report on September 20th.

It's rather a big bug in that it significantly impacts functionality. It should have been fixed already.

Still not fixed in Opera One version: 104.0.4944.54

When in private browsing mode and clicking for example on a link to an atom feed, Opera crashes. In normal mode it works OK.

The RRS feed link on the homepage op Notepad++ also makes Opera crash in private browsing mode. Also when I paste the link in a new tab. The link is:
https://notepad-plus-plus.org/index.xml

Is this a known issue?

(Opera version 88.0.4412.27)

Still not fixed in Aria version 5.3.0.1

@nnq2603 I agree. It doesn't make any sense to think that using a white color in dark mode is a good idea.

Tested Opera 89.0.4447.48 64-bit. The issue is solved.

The bug is fixed. It's working now with Aria 6.1 and Opera One 115.0.5322.109.
