software, backup, Opera, applications, freeware, OperaFly, update, Timothy Conner, apps

In this release OperaFly has been modified to work with both Opera 9 and Opera 10. OperaFly will not upgrade an Opera 9 install to Opera 10. To do that please install Opera 10 over top an existing Opera 9 install. Opera 9 and Opera 10 backups are not compatible with each other.

Known Issues (Bugs):
Controls (buttons, etc.) overlap when system font size is set to 120 dpi.
An error occurs if Widgets are in the list of items to backup, but are not in use.
An error occurs if Mail is in the list of items to backup, but are not in use.

Needs Confirmation:
Opera@USB compatibility is broken.

Feature Requests:
Automatically delete older backups.
Password Protect Fly Files.

OperaFly 2.6 - Bug Fix

Comments

Thanks

I have a problem. Whenever I start Operafly I get a .NET Framework error saying 'Index was outside the bounds of the array.' If I click continue Operafly loads but I can't see it.

Running Win7 x64 and .net is version 3.5

VJgamer # 11. August 2009, 03:48

Hmmm... I was never able to load Windows 7 on my desktop (driver issue), and no longer have it on my laptop. Let me add some debugging capabilities to OperaFly that I meant to add prior, and then we can go from there.

Deass # 12. August 2009, 20:23

Thank you, i was waiting Opera 10 compatibility!

zvalkyr # 16. August 2009, 02:03

I'm having the same issue as joshjnz on XP Pro SP3, if that makes any difference.

dude1001 # 16. August 2009, 19:37

Does operafly need the .net framework?

VJgamer # 16. August 2009, 23:28

Yes OperaFly needs .NET 2.0 at the minimum. Apparently there is a bug if you're using .NET 3.5. I think I would have to port OperaFly to VB 2008 to test in that environment.

swl2009 # 18. August 2009, 12:26

I tried opera fly with no .NET 3.5 installed and still Opera fly will not load up. I have .NET 1.1 + hot fixes .NET 2 .NET service pack .NET 3 service pack.

VJgamer # 19. August 2009, 00:45

Do you get an error message swl2009? If so, what does it say?

swl2009 # 19. August 2009, 09:57

Here is the error report I get with the stand alone version and the installed version.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Hope this is some help to you.

I have the same problem (Windows 7rc (7100))

Duvorynn # 22. August 2009, 08:29

Hi.
I'm using Opera 9.64 (WinXP with SP2) with OperaFly 2.6 (cause I made backup with it) and when I restore my backup, all is there but mail.
In progress bar it says "Extracting Mail" but when I open Opera, mail isn't there.

With regards,
Davorin

DIEGORACE # 25. August 2009, 11:38

nice OperaFly! ! !
really magical. thanks to share this information..
it works perfectly..

Murray.

John164 # 26. August 2009, 17:32

Do any of you have Opera Fly working on Opera 10 RC just released this week ? I have tried it and get the same error I posted a few days ago.

grimjack # 28. August 2009, 17:52

is any one having the problem of an exception when the program starts? it goes into a recursive loop of failure that flips windows out. i am trying it on the current opera release candidate, but i cannot even get he program to start after installation before it crashes.

VJgamer # 29. August 2009, 15:10

I have updated OperaFly with some more debugging capabilities. If someone that is having the problems at startup could give this new version a try and let me know what happens that would be great.

grimjack # 29. August 2009, 17:01

tim
the error is in a folder called timmy\visual studio with an exception that I cannot copy to a file.

VJgamer # 29. August 2009, 17:29

Towards the end of the exception it should give a line number. That would be very useful.

joshjnz # 29. August 2009, 20:49

Here's what I get

An error has occured in Sub frmMain_Load:

Part of the problem may be I don't have a S drive.

VJgamer # 29. August 2009, 21:53

The file names and folders are in reference to where the source code is on my computer.

VJgamer # 29. August 2009, 22:04

Thank you for the information. I have corrected the problem, and have uploaded a new version of OperaFly.

joshjnz # 29. August 2009, 22:37

It runs now

however it can't find my mail. My mail in Opera\profile\mail. I'm using the latest Opera 10 RC which may have changed things. Thanks for all your hard work on this.

grimjack # 30. August 2009, 06:09

it still errors out when i down load the updated version. i have an error at frmMain line 2060 and frmMain line 199
i hope that helps

VJgamer # 30. August 2009, 13:57

@grimjack
What type of error, I don't believe an IndexOutOfRange exception can happen on line 2060.

@joshjnz
It looks like they did change it, or my older single-user install went wrong. I will work on fixing it now.

VJgamer # 30. August 2009, 14:40

I am working on fixing both the mail, and widgets errors, but I have come to a crossroads. Somewhere between 9.2 and 9.6 Opera began splitting mail and widgets to AppData\Local and the rest of your profile to AppData\Roaming (Application Data in XP). Probably with the release of 9.5. I think I will be breaking compatibility with versions of Opera earlier than 9.5.

grimjack # 30. August 2009, 18:03

it has started up for the first time. the backup started, but gave me an error at line 540. i wish i could be more specific, but i know little to nothing about vb coding. i am going to try and play with a couple of variations. is there a limit to the number of skins that can be backed up in the profile? i have a bunch to play with the appearance, so i wonder if that can cause a problem.

grimjack # 31. August 2009, 16:56

if i go back to opera 9.6 opera fly works like a charm. do you think that something changed in version 10 that may be causing a problem. i have no problem using 9 at the current time. thanks for a cool and simple program. a simple backup method was all that was keeping me from making opera my primary browser over firefox.

grimjack # 31. August 2009, 21:53

opera fly only seems to work on my vista system, not with my primary xp system. with the xp system i just get that opera fly has encountered an error and no other data is forthcomming. i would love to give you more data, but xp is being pretty cyptic about the error. i will try the program on anoher xp sustem and another vista system and let you know what happens.

grimjack # 1. September 2009, 16:02

i seem to have gotten the program to work on xp, but the work around is odd. opera fly tries to back up mail and widgets, both of which i do not use. if i set the program to not back those two features up i get a complete backup. is there a way to allow the program to allow a null input, i.e. to allow it to not try to backup nonexistent data or to complete the backup, but tell the user what was skipped?

VJgamer # 1. September 2009, 22:52

Sorry about the mail and widgets, I am working on those settings. They have changed where widgets and mail are located a couple of times.

grimjack # 2. September 2009, 05:52

it is not your fault that the file data was changed. i appreciate that you are creating a neat program that makes my computing life easier.

moscal # 16. September 2009, 11:28

grimjack # 19. September 2009, 04:50

is there any specific reason that you are aware of that would cause opera fly to fail on only one system. it refuses to initialize on a win xp service pack 3 system. i will try to get you a note as to the error message brings up.

John164 # 19. September 2009, 07:53

Hi, I am unable to get your program to work with opera 10.10 Beta. I get two error screens

1st error screen

2nd error screen

I hope you can view these error and they are some use to you.

Regards
John.

VJgamer # 19. September 2009, 09:50

@moscal I need to change it so that OperaFly uses the windows temp directory instead of the Program Files directory. Windows doesn't like that very much (for security reasons).

@grimjack The error message would be a lot of help.

@John164 I am working on fixing errors when it comes to mail.

In general I have noticed some problems with Opera 10 compatibility.I hopefully will have a new release before the end of the week.

John164 # 12. October 2009, 13:48

Any news on the OperaFly program ??

grimjack # 14. October 2009, 14:27

is there any specific reason that operafly will think that an opera directory is from opera 9 when it is opera 10?

laaber # 15. October 2009, 18:22

Nice Tool. 1st impression: good job, works fine.
however, when trying to configure scheduled backup, i realize i can set the "time of backup" from 01:00 to 12:59, but no way to say if that's am or pm. 24h would be a good solution as well
