Lenovo ThinkVantage (Rescue and Recovery 4.5) - Manual (Page 45)

3. Open the file for editing.
4. Locate the [Link Popup Menu].
5. Remove the two semicolons, and then save the file. When the Rescue and Recovery program is closed
and reopened, a user is able to right-click a link and the “Save Target As” option is displayed. This
results in display of the Save As window.
Note: Straight links (not redirected links) work with the preceding procedure. For example, if a link
targets a .php script, Opera saves the script only, not the file to which the script points.
6. Put the file back by using the RRUTIL process described in “Using RRUTIL.EXE” on page 26.
To specify a fixed download directory, do the following:
1. Get the C:\PREBOOT\OPERA\norm1.ini file by using the RRUTIL process described in “Using
RRUTIL.EXE” on page 26.
2. Open the file for editing.
3. In the file, locate this line:
Download Directory=%OpShare%
4. Change %OpShare% to the full path of the directory to which you want downloaded files to be saved.
5. Save the norm1.ini file. When the Rescue and Recovery program is closed and reopened, Opera
saves downloaded files to the specified directory.
6. Put the file back by using the RRUTIL process described in “Using RRUTIL.EXE” on page 26.
Notes:
1. Customizing the full path for downloading does not enable users to save the target file, even if the
link is redirected.
2. The Opera browser is configured to download only the .zip, .exe, and .txt file types, and customizing
only changes Opera behavior for these file types. Internet access is provided to help users get up and
running. For the purposes of the Rescue and Recovery program, the number of recognized file types is
limited. If another file type needs to be transferred, create a .zip file, which can then be extracted.)
3. File types are recognized by MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) type rather than by file
extension. For example, if a .txt file is named with .euy as an extension, the file is still open in the
Opera browser as a text file.
Adding a specific file extension to the downloadable files list
You can add to the list of files that can be downloaded through the Rescue and Recovery browser. To
add to the list, complete the following procedure:
1. Make sure that Opera is closed and that all Opera windows are closed, including the Rescue and
Recovery help files.
2. Get the C:\PREBOOT\OPERA\norm1.ini file using the RRUTIL process described in “Using RRUTIL.EXE”
on page 26.
3. Open the file for editing.
4. Locate the [File Types] section of the file.
5. Use the search function find the desired file, then do one of the following:
• If the extension is found, but files with that extension do not work correctly, complete the following
steps:
a. Change the value following the extension from 8 to 1. (A value of 8 tells the browser to ignore the
file. A value of 1 instructs the browser to save the file.) For example, change the following:
video/mgpeg=8,,,,mpeg,mpg,mpe,m2v,m1v,mpa,|
to
video/mgpeg=1,,,,mpeg,mpg,mpe,m2v,m1v,mpa,|
b. Scroll up to the [File Types Extension] section of the norm1.ini file, and then search for the mime
type of the file. For example, find the following: VIDEO/MPEG=,8
c. Change the ,8 value to the following:
%opshare%\,2
Note: If the specified value is already set , do not change the value.
