Any idea if there is current support for, or plans for support for Last Pass?

There have been lots of requests for Last Pass on the Vivaldi forum, some say they're using it already so I had a quick try at installing it but with no luck. As mentioned before, installing extensions at the moment is a bit hit and miss, as torres discovered with µBlock. I'm pretty sure it won't be long before extensions are officially supported though, and then you should be able to install it. In the meantime, if I come across anything I'll post it here.

@ torres; couldn't remember the appnhost.msi. file being offered to be honest. Anyway, removed C&C from the browser and then re-installed it. Got the prompt to install appnhost.msi. so did it. Then un-installed the app with Revo. Doesn't seem to make no difference to C&C so if you've not installed it I wouldn't bother, and you could delete the file from your Downloads folder without issue.

Good to see you got the other stuff installed ok ..... send the beers whenever

New Snapshot - 1.0.98.2, available to download;

https://vivaldi.net/en-US/blogs/entry/snapshot-1-0-98-2

Did an over the top install.

No problems. Everything still there and working as previous build - extensions, bookmarks etc.

Thanks deya,
I have also done an over the top install without a hitch.

This version seems to be better for me. The µBlock filters appear to update quicker and C&C is clearing data on exit - that particular feature was a bit hit and miss with the previous build. Seems the extensions are working better, or maybe it's just me.

Added UI customisation features are quite good. Shows what can be done regarding this, compared with other Chromium based browsers. Interesting read with one of their designers, here;

New snapshot, 1.0.105.7 available to download;

https://vivaldi.net/en-US/blogs/team...h-32-bit-linux

Over the top install again, no problems. Bookmarks bar in this version. You can move it to top or bottom via settings, or turn it off. There's also a 32 bit Linux version now. And the browser offers 12 new languages.

Anyway to install Google Extension that allows us to install some directly from their site just like present day Opera?

Snapshot 1.0.111.2 available;

https://vivaldi.net/en-US/blogs/team...shot-1-0-111-2

No problems, over the top update. There's also an 'experimental' 64 bit version now.

@danielson - do you mean this extension?

https://addons.opera.com/en-gb/exten...-9/?display=en

.. if so then, no, I tried to install it with no luck.

Perfect! Thank you.
Sure feels like things are moving fast (at least... compared to Opera).
