Portable Opera on Win7 issue

Submitted by entropy on August 11, 2023 - 4:01pm

After upgrading the Opera browser on Windows 7, there was a problem. The browser had many open pages, many bookmarks, saved credentials for many sites, customized workspaces and pinboards. All of this became inaccessible after today's Opera update. I now see links to Opera and Opera (Legacy Win7) in the portable application launcher. Opera doesn't launch (which is understandable). Opera (Legacy Win7) launches with the new blank interface, and everything I mentioned is gone. Is it possible to restore all the settings?

Google Chrome Portable Multiple instances are merging into a single icon on the taskbar

Hello,

I am using multiple instances of Google Chrome Portable and they are merging into a single icon on the taskbar.

I think it's likely because they share the same application ID. Windows groups applications with the same ID under a single taskbar icon to save space.

How can I run Multiple instances with each separate icon of Google Chrome?

I also have attached the screenshot image for easy to understand.

Chrome Portable auto creating temp folder on my SSD

Submitted by Portableman83 on June 3, 2023 - 1:47am

Hi,

Please tell me how to stop Chrome from automatically creating a temp folder in my C partition every time I start it, because I want all files to be in my portable folder on RAM Disk od HDD. I don't understand the purpose of portability then.

How can I be sure that everything I do while surfing on internet, chrome saves and writes in its folder?

Thank you very much forward for the answer.
