  I had to manually check for updates, then it found it, how frequently does Opera Next check for snapshots?
  Thanks for the new build...

  Hmmm, interesting, still using the Opera 11.11 core....
  
  Also has anyone reported the bug where on Windows, in both Windows Explorer and Opera right click Open With, both Opera and Opera Next are indistinguishable... They are both called "Opera Internet Browser" and both have the same icon.
  
  It's a lottery which one you get.. (unless you can remember).

  + 1 , i had to uninstall opera 11.10 before just to ovoid the problem

• Tenno Seremeltenno-seremel23. May 2011, 14:26

  DSK-334250 (Hard to distinguish the start of some text fields with certain KDE sytles)

  
  Is it just me but text field got some default border which causes width: 100% (but otherwise unstyled) field to be a bit wider than it was intended (and it became non-native, but it's better than previous 'native' horrible thing it was with Oxygen widget style anyway)?

  Is there a change to the way passwords are encrypted? I decided to do a clean install here of this build, and can't get my passwords from OperaLink (I can get everything else it seems).
  
  It complains about a Password Syncronization Problem, and then talks about possibly because I changed my password in the past. Whatever I type into the "old password" login does not work....
  
  I wonder how I can get my passwords back???/

  This sounds familiar. Did I respond to this before? I can't remember. Anyway, it continues to work here. I'm using the U.S. .com site, however.
  
  As a test, try extracting a new copy of this build into a new folder. That'll give you a perfectly clean install with a separate profile.
  
  Unrelated: It's safe to use Youtube again. That is, 11.11's unfortunate feature where Youtube (and other Flash videos on at least some other sites) continue downloading after you leave the page/or close the tab, is fixed.

  As a workaround, you can add an "open with Opera Next" entry into the context menu manually. Open menu.ini in the profile folder, locate the line "Submenu, M_OPEN_WITH, Open in menu", and add this where you want it (presumably somewhere in the vicinity):
  
  

  Item, "Open with Opera Next" = Execute program,"C:\Program Files\OperaNext\opera.exe","%u",, "Onext-icon"

  
  You may need to adjust the directory, and if you want an icon, you'll have to create one. Personally, I shrunk this image down and put it in my skin archive.
  
  
  (If you don't already have a custom menu.ini file, the easiest way to create one is by duplicating the default in Preferences\Advanced\Toolbars\Menu Setup.)

• EricJH23. May 2011, 17:56

  Opera Next icons are still not all white. The one in the systray is still red and the one in Default Programs also. See image: http://files.myopera.com/EricJH/files/Opera%20Next%20icon.png .
  
  I am on Win 7 x86.

  Gentlemen! Function very useful when multiple computers are using, but use it as long as no special desire. It is better to move from computer to computer file wand.

  
  You could read the opera link blog http://my.opera.com/operalink/blog/2011/05/03/security-of-synchronized-passwords-with-opera-link

  Lots of minor browsers and browser versions aren't automatically recognised (Iron, for one). To do it manually, see my post above.
