Opera 11.62 released

March 27, 2012 · by olli

Hey Y'all,

We have just released Opera 11.62 and want to thank you all for helping testing it out. This release is primarily a security update, but we have also collected tons of crash fixes and other high visibility bugs. We were even able to sneak in a performance improvement.

11.62 is a recommended security and stability update.

    is the "performance improvement" fix a mistake in the changelog?

    http://www.opera.com/docs/changelogs/windows/1162/

    "Inefficient loading order of resources"

    why is it under the "User Interface"?

    i thought its a network fix and make pages load faster

    or am i just misunderstanding the fix?

    no trolling im just really confused since i noticed a performance improvements since this fix DSK-357882

    and it says here

    http://my.opera.com/desktopteam/blog/2012/02/23/performance-improvements-for-11-62-tunny

    "which we believe will improve performance, particularly for high latency sites."

    i believe its a network fix

    I hope I'm not speaking too soon, but it looks like closing Facebook tabs no longer crashes Opera when the Windows desktop Facebook Messenger client is installed and running smile Nice work.

    Steam website http://store.steampowered.com/ was broken for Opera from today, even 11.62 and 12.00 snapshots. Other web browsers are ok.

    confirmed <- NSL @ first load; no NS, but same result after reload; nasking and deactivating content blocker doesn't help W7x64 wink

    Still frequent crashes when closing the mail tab. That is extremely annoying.

    and also manual edited shortcut to read feeds doesn't open all feeds...

    -> empty feed field (only overview in the left area is shown) -> empty tab name and no icon cause no feed selected...

    -> have to rightclick and "Read feeds" -> display all feed messages, not only the rss in overview

    Memory usage has gone up drastically!

    Just opening grooveshark + gmail, its taking 400+ MB of ram.

    Used to take much much lesser in 11.61 sad
  • Bhikkhu PesalaPesalaTuesday, March 27, 2012 12:10:29 PM

    Fixed: Find in page (Ctrl + F) uses last used Find inline type

    Broken: Find Next (F3) doesn't use last used Find inline type

    I'll repeat a comment from the previous post because I think nobody will be reading it anymore. wink

    Sorry for asking this now, but can we have the "wrapper" button again? I used it to bring the extension buttons to a new line below the address bar, and now it's gone. sad
  • PraetorianXTuesday, March 27, 2012 12:37:17 PM

    Congratulations on the release. This version for me is much better than the 11.61 one in terms of usability (although I can't speak about memory usage, because I rarely bother to check it).

    Perhaps "nobody" is reading it, because it is in the wrong place. Feature requests belong to the forums: http://my.opera.com/community/forums/forum.dml?id=24

    Asking for a button that was there and is no longer there sounds more like asking to fix a regression than a feature request, which is more like asking for features that never existed in the first place. But I understand the matter is arguable.

    Anyway, nobody is reading that post anymore because here is the new snapshot. People don't have the magical ability to skip a post by knowing that a particular comment will include a feature request, you know.

    Thanks for your time.

    Great Opera Team, you rock !
  • snlalauretteTuesday, March 27, 2012 3:01:52 PM

    Cosmetic bug that I've just discovered: when you are in a mail tab and switch to a non-maximized tab (Downloads, for example), the mail panel disappears as if you had switched to a maximized tab. You can see the message list behind the non-maximized window, but since the panel has disappeared, there is a distracting visual "jump". Nothing otherworldly, but it should be easily fixable, I think (just make the panel disappear only when switching to a maximized tab).

    when i click on "stop download" from context menu in youtube webm(Html5) videos opera doesn't respond, I have to force close it.

    edit: Its not reproducible. I tried it again but it worked.

    Opera is looking better and better with many interesting features. Keep on the good work. I do have a small request however...could developers make additional efforts on the Opera's Print Rendering Module. Print outs from Opera are often messed up... I'm talking about certain objects, fonts etc.... a good e.g. would be a print out from google maps....the print turns out to be completely grey.

    Hoping to the see that soon

    For me it loads all of them ok OR most of the covers except one or few which are stuck with a constantly loading animation gif.

    Edit:behavior seems a bit random indeed, in that page. Reloading with F5, usually ends up with many covers (if not all) NOT loading (just the loading gif). Reloading with Ctrl+F5 has better results.

    I think you got security problem on Desktop Team, something is not refreshing time of comments correctly or even a new blog post to appear in traffic. Maybe is just server overloaded. Last week i need to force refresh and clear history and that was on the phone, on desktop is not that much better.sad
  • CrsCrsmsgTuesday, March 27, 2012 6:06:14 PM

    star Nice work! More stable than 11.61
