You can't copy Login Data files from one account to another or on a newly re/installed Windows, they are lost.
Why? Login data of Opera is bound and encrypted by old Windows account seetings.

I'm sorry, perhaps I've expressed myself wrong (english isn't my first language).

I do like the bookmark bar very much. The past versions allowed me to add bookmarks to this bar using CTRL + D
Unfortunately that has change. If I use CTRL + D in the current version, the bookmarks will be added to another place inside opera, not the bookmark bar.

Now I'd either like to be able to change the shortcut back to the old behaviour or to know the new shortcut to add links to the bookmark bar.

Thank you. Anyway, it's off now. If I continue to get problems I'll restart this thread.

Once again, thanks to all who helped.

You can use Opera 12. What is the problem? Opera 12 is still supported by Opera.

I can't open that .ext file.

You've noticed that it is just an example of the sybtax of the "command" to put a screenshot here in the forums, right?

Would that enable me to instruct the server to leave the messages forever?

Nope, they aren't related. I don't remember now how exactly you change it but try right click on mail panel and look for something like "show messaages from..."

Btw, the messages are disappearing only from the email client or from the server too?

You have to drag them and put them somewhere or it will go back.

Thanks for replying.

That's what I had. I managed to get it working by using Prefs > Search > Edit and unchecking "use POST".

So you weren't using the search field in history? So you were just looking at the entries? Or you were using search in page?

Whether I was using the search field or whatever, it was all empty anyway, nothing to search for.

Usually that message means incorrect login and/or password. Try to type them again in the server settings.

Also check if you have imap enabled in your gmail's settings.

Deactivating auto-update is as simple as disabling the windows scheduler entry. easy to do from scheduled tasks in the control panel.

OsX/Linux, it's probably in crontab

Security risks, slightly increasing with time.

If you use a strictly limited number of sites to watch and play, you could use an alternative browser for specifically those purposes - even an older one (make sure you don't browse much and don't click shit).
Though I guess other guys here might get up to advising you on some specific plug-in problems, so stay tuned.

If you upgrade - it'll only be Opera 12.17, that's all.

Yes, there are settings in "Preferences" there (I'm not with Opera now, can you stroll there yourself, please).

is there a eay I can be notified when someone answers my Opera Forum?

Go to your profile (upper right corner) and choose the "Notifications" tab: you can choose to get notified in three or more cases - including your threads, starred threads, etc.

The blocking was back but I have actually found the culprit, it was Ghostery. Apparently they had an update which blocked the popup when I clicked on the embedded link for chat on the Dish network support page, and other pages. I put that page's address in the Ghostery whitepaper list and it is now working fine. I'll just have to watch out for this behavior. But, at least I now know how to fix it. I could just turn off Ghostery but it blocks websites from tracking me and somehow I just don't like that as it just leads to more ads. I'm just sick of ads. That's why we DVR all the network shows and many cable/satellite only channels. Some channels like AMC have become impossible to watch without using your DVR. I mean it's 5 minutes of program and 10 minutes of ads! UGG!!

it also happens to me and it doesn't matter what version it is. It seems to happen with all the blink-based Opera versions. For reference, I'm using Win 8.1 x64, Opera 26. I use Nod32 and Comodo firewall, but things seem to work fine with mozilla-based browsers and IE. After a while, blink-based browsers seem to halt the computer. You don't need to restart as it evenutally comes back, but process explorer or task manager will show 100% CPU and 100% disk usage attributed to no one process, but to the SYSTEM process.

it's odd and only reproducible after browsing for a period of time. I've noticed several other posts about the exact same thing, but it hasn't been seriously investigated for a solution.
