I have some problems with my Opera11: userjs and extensions do not work

Could it be that you have to increase the User JS Storage Quota in opera:config? At least that's what got the NoAds extension working for me.

Hey, thanks!
Extensions are working now (I put a 500 value instead of the default 0 in User JS Storage Quota field).
But scripts like Linkify don't, although Image Sizer extension (based on userjs being activated) works.
I'm puzzled, again!

I don't know if you're using NoAds, which also blocks scripts and is still buggy. (Since NoAds seemed to prevent sorting of eBay search results on my test machine, I switched to AdSweep.) Or one of your other extensions interferes with scripts or the problem simply has to be attributed to Opera11's beta status.

Yes, I use NoAds...but I fail to see why this extension blocks userjs (if so...I'll look into this). Thanks!

Another issue: Opera 11 keeps creating a hidden desktop.ini file on my desktop, with the following content: Any ideas?

Edit: No, it's not NoAds fault! Linkify still does not work. But other scripts do work... I want a working Linkifyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy !

Code: Select all

[.ShellClassInfo]
LocalizedResourceName=@%SystemRoot%\system32\shell32.dll,-21769
IconResource=%SystemRoot%\system32\imageres.dll,-183

Any ideas?

Opera's not creating that, that's a shell folder icon resource for the 'Desktop' see here.

Hmm...

Let me try again:

• I have nothing on my Desktop.
  My Desktop folder has that blue customized icon in Windows Explorer and in any other explorer like FC, TC, XY etc.
  I start many applications (including Opera 10).
  My Desktop is still empty (absolutely no icons).
  I start Opera 11 ("C:\Users\joby_toss\Desktop" path is nowhere in settings, I don't use this one for anything).
  That „desktop.ini” file appears (I can actually see it being created) on my Desktop and it has the „hidden” attribute.

Isn't this strange?

I used "desktop.ini" files myself many times before, when trying to customize some folder's icon.
Opera 11 did not behave like this when I first tried it; only 3 versions ago this started.

Seems like an issue/bug, a couple of reports already for 32/64.

Thank you!

Every time I have a strange issue like this, it is very hard for me to find someone else with similar issue!
Don't know how you found that link!

It's all in the query (Google), can't remember exactly what it was though.
Something like; 'desktop.ini being created by opera'.

The last 24hours has been busy at Opera. Now Opera V11 is RC2 - http://my.opera.com/desktopteam/blog/20 ... er-not-cry

No surprise Opera has posted something like this I really hope Opera has a truly successful 2011, because they're the company that just keeps giving!

And now RC3 is available - http://my.opera.com/desktopteam/blog/20 ... andidate-3

I have a sneaking suspicion that this might be the Final Version, or then again it might not be. Opera have been known to whip out 6 Releases Candidates before a Final Version.

I just found this >> http://get1.opera.com/pub/opera/win/1100/ which suggests that this will be the Final release (unless Opera makes another surprise) See below...the versions are the same but MD5 is different!

RC3 -
V11.00.1156
MD5: 8EE12B1AB5C97BF66FE32A2FBFB6AA70

Final -
V11.00.1156
MD5: 4DCBBE6485B3C3B3A5C17C4A78425D61
