  1. Can't open Opera or Google browser


    Alright, I ended up doing a full reset on my computer since nothing else had worked to fix this issue before hand. It was okay getting them installed for a moment bu I still can't open either browser. I can see a tab open but it immediately closes. I'm not sure if this is a hardware issue or something else. I also would like to know if it's possible to remove the Family restrictions on the account I use since I'm already 18.

    :)

    Possible minor bug - Update with both Opera 2x & Google Chrome installed

    Strange bug: Running the previous-older version of GPU-Z on Windows 7, 64-bit, SP1 and trying to update GPU-Z. Have Opera 23/24 installed as a 2ndary web browser, and Google Chrome installed as default/main web browser.
    Steps that work fine:
    1) Run GPU-Z whatever version.
    2) Open About.
    3) Click the links.
    Result: Links open correctly in default browser - Google Chrome.

    Steps to reproduce bug:
    1) Run GPU-Z, version before latest.
    2) Try to check for updates.
    3) GPU-Z says an update is available.
    4) Tell it to show the update.
    Result: Link opens incorrectly in Opera 23/24, instead of default Google Chrome web browser.
    Expected: Open in Google Chrome instead.

    Note: Opera 23/24 uses the same core as Google Chrome.

    Please check and fix, if necessary.
     
  3. How to fix no sound in some video & audio files played in Google Chrome and Opera browsers?

    Steps that fixed my issue:

    • Open Creative Audio Control Panel
    • In Speaker Configuration section,
      change 7.1 Speakers to 2/2.1 Speakers.

    This immediately fixed my issue and I did not even need to reboot. All the previous video and audio files I was having an issue with play fine now in Google Chrome & Opera browser.

    Reading this Reddit post helped me solve my problem.

    Can't open Opera or Google browser

    Possible minor bug - Update with both Opera 2x & Google Chrome installed

    Hello! Does not seem to be fixed in any way.
    PROBLEM: On Windows 7, with Google Chrome as default browser, try to update GPU-Z.
    Result: Opens in IE11.
    Expected: To open in default browser, i.e. Google Chrome.

    On Windows 8.1, a slightly different thing happens:
    PROBLEM: On Windows 8.1, with both Opera and Google Chrome installed and with Google Chrome as default browser, try to update GPU-Z.
    Result: Opens in Opera.
    Expected: To open in default browser, i.e. Google Chrome.

    Please fix this in 0.8.2! *Smile Can't open Opera or Google browser :)
