  4. Meet the browser: Vivaldi Next 1 2 3 4 9

    by BooBerry

    In 1994, two programmers started working on a web browser. Our idea was to make a really fast browser, capable of running on limited hardware, keeping in mind that users are individuals with their own requirements and wishes. Opera was born. Our little piece of software gained traction, our group grew and a community was created. We stayed close to our users and to our roots. We kept improving our software, based on our users feedback, as well as our own ideas on how to make a great browser. We innovated and we strove for excellence. Fast forward to 2015, the browser we once loved has changed its direction. Sadly, it is no longer serving its community of users and co…

    Originally posted by Aviram Opera is known as the fastest and smallest full-featured browser, a first choice for people using older PCs and Windows 95 and a brilliant alternative to the default IE from Microsoft. This new version has a chance to actually beat IE hands-down because it has a truckload of new and exciting features. It complies to all the current web-page standards, it has a completely new interface (you can choose from single window and multi-window view), built-in search, a download manager, an advanced mail/news reader, print preview, a huge bookmark collection and much more in a 2Mb free package!

  7. Anybody ever heard of and used the SuperBird browser?

    Anybody ever heard of and/or used this browser? I came across it yesterday and downloaded it, but not to much info about it any where? Appears to be 2 different versions of it when searching for it. The first link below is the version I'm trying out, but when searching specifically for it, most links go to the second link below. Installing from that second link is a version that doesn't have the same settings page and I am unable to install ublock origin in it. Doesn't use Chrome web store. I can use Chrome web store and install ublock origin using the version from first link. https://www.malavida.com/en/soft/superbird/ http://superbird-browser.co…

    I tried using command line ... start msedge --start-fullscreen ... but it will just start in normal window mode instead of fullscreen. For your info, the PC is running Windows10 Home Edition with a local account (not tied to a Microsoft account). All updates are latest. How do I get it working?

  9. Edge Dev closing right after opening

    by patseguin

    Up until yesterday, Edge dev has been working fine. Now, when I open it, it immediately closes. I tried rebooting, doing a repair (which downloaded and reinstalled). and sfc /scannow (which found no errors). Anyone know what might be going on? I'm running the beta build now and it's fine.

  15. Chrome Remote Desktop - Can't control mouse when user shares the screen and then when I start installing something

    by Pedro3

    Hello, in Windows, when a user shares his screen with me (giving me the generated code), I can control the mouse and everything else, but when I click to install an app or something like that, I loose control of the mouse, the user can control the mouse but not me, and when the user gets out of the installer, I regain control again of the mouse. This happens only in windows, in a mac, since I do the allows in accessibility, I never have problems installing things. When I use the option to connect, instead of sharing, I can control everything in windows, including the installers. Is there an option to have access during the installation and when the user is …

  18. Transition from Firefox to Microsoft Edge

    by Digitalfox

    Hello, After +15 years I'm seriously considering going from Firefox to Edge, Firefox development just isn't the same like it was years ago. However I'm having a issue with Edge on bookmark toolbar. While I dislike Edge doesn't have bookmarks separators, I can live with that. But I just hate the padding/space between bookmarks, on a big list it uses way to many space and you have to use the arrows to go up and down: Firefox: Edge: Is there any way to adjust? Extension, hack, anything?

  19. Brave browser... how secure?

    by kiddingguy

    I was just wondering on the Brave Browser... their latest version is: Version 1.8.90 Chromium: 81.0.4044.129 (Official Build) (64-bit) And this chromium version is dated Sat Apr 25 There have been newer Chromium (sub)versions released after this .129 version (like even 81.0.4044.144 released today; Thu May 07). And the latest Google Chrome is v. 81.0.4044.138 (I'm not sure if the Google version is on par with the Chromium though) Basically my question is... if the Chromium-project has later (stable) released out, how secure is Brave on earlier versions? And why doesn't it sooner follow these newer Chromium-builds?

    Hello, I'm using Windows 10 ver 2004 and recently found out that, for some reason, if you use the "old" Edge that came bundled with Windows 10 (not the new, Chrome based one) if you right click on a picture and save it, it'll automatically save it as PNG, which is a lossless format and it's the only browser that I know of that does that Now, I know most websites compress their images anyways, which makes saving as PNG ever better Is there any way to force Firefox to do so? I tried looking for an extension, couldn't find any I know that sooner or later, Microsoft will force an update that'll make the new Edge take over (tried it, saves as JPG like any other …

  26. Google Chrome Issue on Windows 10

    A few days ago I updated Google Chrome on my two laptops, one nearly five years old and one just six months old. On the older machine I now have a jigsaw piece like icon on the toolbar calling itself 'extensions'. Nothing shows when I right click on it so as a result it can't be moved or removed. After looking around the internet for solutions I am still none the wiser. It's odd that it has only happened on my old laptop. Any possible solutions would be welcome. Thanks.
