Avant Browser

So, you did what was in that post and still had the same issue when you started Avant afterward?

Nope, not silly. I prefer my bookmarks bar to be a folder of my choosing. You can right-click any folder in your bookmarks and choose Set as the Root of Bookmarks Bar to do this. But ... to go back to the main "folder," i.e. the folder that has all of your bookmarks, you have to go to the folder you...

Due to my schedule, it's been years since I've helped out or visited regularly, but there have been occasional spurts where I've visited pretty regularly. And I'd almost always pop in when a new version was released. My work requires me to interact with numerous departments and officials in multiple...

I can confirm. (And thanks for posting. I got sidetracked yesterday when I came here to post about this and didn't. I had already forgotten)

As much as I hate to say it, you're probably not going to get a response from anyone in the know. I have a feeling that Avant is pretty much on cruise control at this point. I don't keep up much with this stuff anymore, but Mozilla already dropped extensions based on other code or bases or whatever-...

I use it every day. Can you name some of the sites with which you're having issues?

I'm pretty sure you've posted these issues before. (If that is the case, I'd be positive they've been posted if the forum rules were followed and this post appeared in the same thread as the previous.) But, I typically ignore threads that don't contain any relevant information. Can you provide some ...

You specifically mentioned Firefox. Does it work with any other engine? It works for me using Chrome's engine and when I tried it again using Firefox's it work, too. And to be clear, when you try it overwriting, it's clearly not a file Avant has already saved, right? ...since it can't save. It certa...

Can you clarify what and why leads you to believe this is an automatic update issue? An automatic update isn't designed to crash a computer (obviously) nor reset all of the browser settings. So, what aspects are making you think automatic update?

I would try another download of the installer. I'm not sure if MysteryFCM still keeps track of them, but you might even try it from his archive. I think some clarification of where Avant stores the build version might help, too, because I've seen this "Avant thinks I have..." comment quite a bit. It...

I'm sorry, I should have said "the Firefox engine." Since this is an Avant board and you were talking about Avant, I thought that the Firefox engine would be assumed, not that I was just going to start talking about another browser. Can you explain me, what can I do, if I lost access to my online ac...

Keep in mind that 'back-up' doesn't have to only apply to the things that people specifically say to back-up. When you run into an issue with any piece of software where you lose data and information, make your first thought be, "Hey, I should start backing that up!" If you're losing Add-ons in Fire...

In Avant Browser need to add new function: copy last lists of Bookmarks and Autofill to local account ".default" in case lost access to online account

You can log out of your online account and import everything to your local account using Menu -> Import -> User data from other account.

What search engine are you using? I'm not getting that when I use the search box

Out of curiosity, how are you closing the tab?

Those icons only appear when the root bookmarks folder is being used as the source for the toolbar. If you right-click a folder in your main Bookmarks menu, you can choose Set as thee Root of Bookmarks Bar . That folder's bookmarks will appear on the Bookmarks Bar and those two icons will disappear....

When I use the Firefox engine after opening a 'New Session' window, it has none of my add-ons or extensions.

Opening a New Window works fine and I have no issues when first opening Avant. But, opening a 'New Session' loses them.

Can you post the exact message you're getting? Because you're not "connecting" to Avant, it's an application you're opening. You're using it to connect to websites. Are you getting this error when you're connecting to secure sites? Since not all sites are secure, that would explain why it might some...

Yeah, but with the number of bills you have to get together to get any real use of it, you might as well just buy some from a dealer.


...I mean, that's what I heard. A friend of mine tried.

Using the Chrome engine, Avant is giving me the option to "Download image..." when right-clicking pictures as opposed to the Chrome Browser's "Save image as..." Avant's used to say "Save image as..." as well. Is this just me and/or does anyone know the reason for the change? I was almost wondering i...
