I think the 1st page of this thread stating (Russian only) would tend to give the impression that there isn't an English language option, so my suggestion is to edit the Opera 12.18_45 entry to include the fact that there is an English language option. I also subsequently located a setting for English in the preferences settings and set it to English.- see photo for reference.


I went into the installation folder (locale) language sub-folders and disabled the Russian and Ukrainian language files by renaming them something that wouldn't load, then placed copies of the English language file into the Russian and Ukrainian locale sub-folders as well as leaving the English file in the original pre-existing English locale location (so no other language could possibly load) and voila (!), English, not perfect but very workable. There *is* an English language file included which during the first time I opening the browser, I couldn't find the setting for, since everything appeared in Russian Cyrillic. I have been using the Opera 12.18_45 Russian built browser and so far I think it works very well and has more feature rich tweaking of everything than I have ever see in any other build of any browser and I have yet to explore all of the available tweaking which is not well translated into English as of yet. The following link will download the last version that will work on XP. The link below seems to try and determine what OS system you are using to view the page and download a browser version for what it determines is the OS you are using. I'm posting the relevant links and additionally I found that if I copy my extensions to the browser profile, many of the extensions I use will work. Perhaps there is something in it worth considering for those who are doing the mods and for the users such as myself, it's another browser in the 'arsenal' that still basically works on XP. I'm not stating categorically that this browser will work on all sites (as it doesn't), although it does work on 'some' sites that the newer mozilla-type modded browsers don't work as well on.maybe API related. I located what seems to be an odd firefox based browser, which ostensibly prevents the user from copying anything from sites,although I have not found it to be the case.
