It works now. Accidentally used an 32-bit deal instead of the 64-bit version. Thank you for the quick support!

I've only noticed that the Status Bar and all elements were useless in Light but they are now working (progress bar, status text). I don't use sync anyway and only recall the problem with the Status Bar prior to using the installer version.
So, a simple solution for a problem that wasn't previously addressed.

2014-09-26 builds have sync enabled(as the folder name suggested), so it have the necessary components, while 2014-08-30 builds are not.


Well? The current-latest release (34) apparently does not have sync enabled.
Why?
Is it (not) possible to issue a release so components (EX: Status Bar) can be enabled?

I want to download the new version of Light v. 34, but the download site is not working.
Please let me know when it will be available.
Thank you.

You can use the modified status4evar

sf works for me. If it's not for me, I can do nothing to the site.

NOT ME: You can use the modified status4evar.

ME: Great!
Could you explain how to modify s4e or tell me where I'd locate a modified status4evar?
(Install, add via Customize isn't working...)

RE: s4e
Sorry, I didn't notice Status4evar had been added to the components list. It works fine, thanks.

I am having a couple of problem with Light 34.0:

1) I have preference set to "Show my windows and tabs from last time" when Light starts. Frequently, this does not work, and instead, it shows my home page.

2) If I use context menu "Save Link as" for downloading a file, the download manager puts it in the cue but does not download it (the progress bar keeps going by but it does on download it). However, if I restart Light, then it starts and completes the download.

I am running XP sp3 and use dial up internet.

Your help is apprecitated.
