      Greetings to all. 2-3 months ago I did total Windows 10 reinstallation meaning deleting all files and then intalling Windows 10 again. Unfortunately, I forgot to make backup of my Opera bookmarks (more than 800 that have been collected during last 10 years). And after installation of all needed programmes I noticed that my bookmarks weren't restored from Opera cloud (at that very moment I was hoping/believing that it really exists). As I don't have eidetic memory it will be impossible to remember each and every of my bookmarks. So far I bookmarked just over 100 bookmarks. So is it possible to downgrade my bookmarks to the earlier version or somehow restore them?

        @coldrussian If you didn't have a backup nor the bookmarks were synced, there is no way to restore them.

          @leocg Of course, sync was enabled. Well, I was sure that it was enabled by default. Or maybe I did something wrong... If I go to web sync page I see 5 connected devices although I don't use 2 of them anymore: 1) my previous Windows 10 "user configuration" before its reinstallation and 2) my old smartphone "data". So as I understand it is impossible to extract bookmarks from these no more used devices somehow?

            @coldrussian Sync is not enabled by default. Did you enabled it?

                @leocg Yes, it is enabled and I can see my bookmarks. I was just hoping that after Windows reinstallation my bookmarks would be restored. But, unfortunately, no...

                  @coldrussian Only bookmarks weren't synced or there are other things too?

                    @coldrussian said in Restoring of bookmarks?:

                    @leocg Yes, it is enabled and I can see my bookmarks. I was just hoping that after Windows reinstallation my bookmarks would be restored. But, unfortunately, no...

                    Your Bookmarks should be Sync'd as well as your SD (Speed Dial).

                    Go to Bookmarks > Other Speed Dials

                    And copy and paste them to your current Speed Dial folder.

                    Otherwise, upload an Screenshoot to confirm Browser's Sync state and BKMs Page.

                        @zalex108 Well it's like this after Windows reinstallation. (It's in russian but can be easily understand.) I have to remember them from my memory up until this time.!0_1531330430767_1.png

                          @coldrussian So none of those 166 bookmarks are showing in Opera even with sync enabled?
