Hi.
It is time for a backup feature in Opera!
Nope: opera://settings/?search=backup

I did not find a topic for an Opera Browser backup here:
https://forums.opera.com/tags/backup
Anybody has a solution for a local Opera Backup, but not Opera Sync? Here it starts imediately: https://www.sync.opera.com/

Wishes:
All settings have to be optionally backuped to separate files:
Settings, tabs, passwords, addons and their settings, cookies, active sessions and windows, history, cache, certificates, etc.

A built in backup with these options would be very fine for all

ps:
Copying the entire profile folder is not always OK.
Mostly this too simple method copies also too much mess with it in hidden folders.
One problem could be this:
Service Worker, Webworker: Tracking, Targeting, Ads:

@cratte Sync is not a backup service. No synchronization service is a backup.

Just for information
