OperaFly 2.6 - Bug Fix

Tuesday, 14. October 2008, 05:22:53

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

I read that in the most recent Opera 10 alpha that they have changed the names of some files. I do not know the effects of this on OperaFly's backup capabilities.

It's been a while, but I have finally fixed the bug where everything was included in automatic backups. That is the ONLY change in this release.

Hopefully I can get some of the things I wanted to get done with OperaFly done soon. I am having trouble remembering which features were desired so I will update the list below each time there is a request for a feature, or a bug that needs to be addressed:

Known Issues (Bugs):
Controls (buttons, etc.) overlap when system font size is set to 120 dpi.

Needs Confirmation:
Opera@USB compatibility is broken.

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

Good news:)

John164 # 14. October 2008, 16:22

Just installed OperaFly 2.6 from above but program says it is 2.5?

VJgamer # 15. October 2008, 03:16

Thank you John164... The code was the updated code, but I have now changed the installer, and the file assemblies to read 2.6, and 2.6.0.0

davidmolinagil # 21. October 2008, 18:33

FOR OPERA PORTABLE?

VJgamer # 22. October 2008, 05:46

@davidmolinagil
I assume you mean Opera@USB... Compatibility with Opera@USB is currently broken. I haven't looked into it yet, but I'm thinking something with the way Opera@USB functions has changed.

I want to script restore, but:
Operafly -r -f:"c:\my backups\flyfile.fly" is not working for me.
Can you confirm and fix the problem ?

Thanks, your sofware is very useful!

I whant to unistall Opera Fly,but integration whith opera toolbar don't unistalled.What can I do?

VJgamer # 7. November 2008, 06:10

In Opera you should be able to do the following:

Tools -> Preferences -> Advanced (tab) -> Toolbars -> Menu setup (heading) -> Opera Standard

While you are there you can delete the menu setup with OperaFly in it.

Janini # 11. November 2008, 09:06

Hi there! I have instaled OperaFly but it does not work, I think it is a problem of files paths. An Error window opens telling that path to /mail/accounts.ini is wrong. Any way to change default paths? Best regards.

Hi Tim,

Just tried to enable opera fly to start at start up and get this error when I press the OK button. Any suggestions please.

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this

Edit:

I might have solved the problem by re-installing Opera Fly.

VJgamer # 1. December 2008, 22:10

Ok, I need to remember to start packaging the debug files with the installation package. It gives a more helpful error message.

gilb # 20. December 2008, 14:00

Hi,
Formyself don't work with Opera 9.63, crash at backup ...

wazzup105 # 16. January 2009, 11:19

Hi, I have installed Opera 10 Alpha Build 1456 and when I installed your OperaFly it could not find Opera at all I even went to the opera directory and selected the opera folder and still was told could not find opera!! OperaFly seems to think I have opera in my D: drive for some reason when it is not.

Do you have any suggestions please.

Regards
John.

Does this program work under WinMe. TIA

sgreener # 25. June 2009, 02:24

I have just tried to run OperaFly as a non-Administrator user under Windows XP. The software was installed by an Administrator user with the Start Menu folder shared with all users. However, when I try to run OperaFly in any other user than the installer I get this:

************** Exception Text **************

Yes, if I go to 'C:\Program Files\OperaFly' and manually try to create the Working directory I get the same error: cannot create folder.

I cannot work out how to give all users write permission to the OperaFly folder. I also cannot see anything in OperaFly whereby I can tell it to use another folder other than the Working one (eg c:\temp).

I must not be able to see the obvious: anyone help?

regards
Simon

VJgamer # 26. June 2009, 14:43

I can see how this would be a problem. There is no option to change the directory that OperaFly uses as it's "working" directory. I will add it to my todo list if I go to update OperaFly again.

In the meantime, OperaFly will work in any directory without installation. You can just copy OperaFly.exe to C:\temp and then run OperaFly from there. It will then use C:\temp\working as it's "working" directory.

sgreener # 29. June 2009, 00:19

Tim,

Thanks for the tip, I will follow it up.

A second question. Are there any known issues with running OperaFly with all versions of .NET up to 3.5 with SP? In running it on a target machine I get:

Hello,

I use last opera snapshot and you know its default directory is program files/opera 10 beta but I set up it in program files/opera directory.

I tried to use OperaFly standalone to backup but it says/warns "This is not an opera diroctory" and even if I choose new directory as a path it is not allow it.

Do you know solution?

sgreener # 4. July 2009, 00:23

Anyone know why OperaFly won't run for me on an XP machine with multiple .NET runtimes installed?

Sorry for the delay, I don't get emails when people comment for some odd reason. It sounds like I need to create an OperaFly package that includes the debug file. It will show a much clearer reason why the OperaFly is having problems. I will work on this as soon as I return home.

ZAHEK # 4. July 2009, 19:30

My question?

VJgamer # 5. July 2009, 00:45

The directory check looks for two items. opera.exe and operadef6.ini. As long as those two items are in that folder then it should say "This is an Opera directory."
