Chrome 110-based Opera - I ported it to Vista.

1)  I do NOT support "extended kernels".  I do NOT support "POSReady".  So I ignore all of those topics.  So I guess I'm "thankful" if there are NO LINKS to them here at MSFN.  But those "illegal" topics get a TON of replies and that has always made me wonder why those threads are not deleted/banned.

2)  True.

3)  Ah, did not know that.  I used Opera 12-point-something a long way back, but that was before it was Chromium-based.  I didn't think Opera was "allowed" to use open-source Chromium but then close-source the resulting Opera.  But now that I think about it, MS Edge is doing the same thing.

It depends on the license, open-source software may still have a license with certain restrictions, hence all the drama in the past with Mozilla-based browsers discussed on the forum.

I don't know the specifics/quirks in this case, lawyers are better address for those. The less you need lawyers in life, the better...

I already explained in the topic why I can't share the ready-made modded Opera versions here. It's illegal. Maybe you need to use some form of machine translation.

The link to the official Opera is here. You would need to mod it, but I no longer share the info on how to do it, due to a recent incident of its misuse/abuse.

Now I can only share with the moderators, if they are interested.

So your choice would be to download and wait for the Vista Kernel to be released (it will include my Opera hacks, also).

Ah! so basically, you close the door on the users like me. What's the abuse incident that you talk about ?

Is it possible to do it in PM ?

Once I can get one version working, I will be able to do it on the future releases myself.

And thanks for putting up this topic.

No , you will not - 'cause each new version brings more and more complicated crap , too complicated for someone who is not prepared to handle.

We already had a "hero", who just ran away after he made only one version of chrome released, and it was based on my knowledge.

Then you have your choice to move to the "wonderful Eclipse" for the 9673845807507th time and don't spam my Opera topic and don't show disrespect to @win32's marvellous work !

Became a huge fan of your work recently. Thanks for all of your efforts. As I didn‘t read all messages here, I wanted to ask if you‘re interested in backporting newer Opera versions as well, or if this stays on v97 (110)? I didn‘t know that the guy who backported Chromium 111/112 to 7 and 8.1 stole it from you

Guys, you do understand you need to block Opera from spying, right ?

Here I give you my ready-made scripts for netsh. This is for Windows Firewall.

I traced the most important IPs were it leaks your data. Enjoy !

Advfirewall Firewall add rule name="OperaChinoSpy_OFF" dir=in profile=any localip=any remoteip=3.120.0.0/14,13.32.23.0/24,34.208.0.0/12,37.228.104.0/21,52.58.0.0/15,54.191.0.0/16,74.125.131.94,74.125.205.102,78.46.0.0/15,81.19.82.98,82.145.192.0/19,82.145.208.0/22,82.145.212.0/24,82.145.213.0/24,82.145.215.0/24,82.145.216.0/22,82.145.220.0/22,91.203.97.0/24,107.167.123.0/24,141.0.8.0/22,141.0.12.0/22,173.194.73.103,185.26.180.0/22,195.189.142.0/24,195.189.143.0/24,213.180.204.193 protocol=any action=block

Fantastic, state of the art script!

IMPORTANT: They added one new, I was trying to catch it, but I was late, sorry. I'll keep you posted!
