@swillklitch You can copy the entries and paste them into the Speed Dial folder on the left of the bookmarks manager page.

@leocg Thanks for answering! My problem is a bit worse. I have only one device. I wanted to sync the tabs to backup, reinstall the Opera and then sync it back. Looks like I have lost everything. History trick do not work too.
But SpeedDial advice was Very helpful, thankyou! -

@swillklitch Remember that Sync is not a backup tool, it's something designed to help syncing data between two devices/installations.
Opened tabs are kept synced while opened. Once you close the browser or uninstalled it, they ar eno longer opened and, therefore, no longer synced.
If you want to save/keep current opened tabs, it's better to save them as a Speed Dial folder.Regarding history, if you go to, for example, www.opera.com then if you are on another installation/device logged with the same account and start typing "o" in address bar, opera will suggest www.opera.com or even autocomplete to it.

I come to open my pc and it updates itself. I had updates blocked and used a much older version that allowed me to block every specific cookie. it doesnt allow anymore
how do I stop it from auto updating. its ridiculous how this browser forces stuff on to users. shoves it down their throats.
I hate chrome, but im already willing to delete opera from all my devices if I cant get a fix
I dont have issues with chrome. I dont like it, but it runs smoothly and I dont have stupid popups for my location or to send me notifications. constant harassment. just le me alone and let me surf without having me interact with these sites.. . -

@gfyourself To block auto-updates, see the FAQ
To downgrade, just install an older version and block autoupdates.

Hello guys,
how can I choose a custom search engine and set it as default?
Is it possible, with tweaks, Flags, hosts, edit files, or whatever?
I want to change my search engine to Qwant and set it as default, but why is Opera not allowing other users to set their search engine and use only their categories (Google, Yahoo!, DuckDuckGo, Amazon, Bing, Wikipedia) only?
If it is about security reasons, why do not Opera adds a mark, that says, if you click this mark you will take care then or something like that.
Have a nice day.

Hi @sgunhouse, can you maybe forward the developer, that they add Qwant as a choosable default search engine?

The start page search bar still uses Google even when I changed my default browser.

Why does the main menu appear to me as Google's default search engine if the current one I have in DuckDuckGo?
