      @sdas15 Synced opened tabs can be found by clicking the tabs icon (the one that looks like a computer) in sidebar or by going to opera://activity, they are not automatically populated in the current installation.

        @leocg yeah I figured out this just after I posted, but initially I didn't find any relevant post mentioning the copy/paste way to do this.

          Added a new Search Service.
          There is no way to select it by default.
          Here
          [opera://settings/searchEngines](link url)
          And it is not added to the Dropbox, here Search engine used in the address bar

            @mikola123 As known, only pre-defined search engines can be set as default.

              Hello, is there a way to hide the google search bar on the main page? I have set DuckDuckGo as my main search so I do not want to see the Google search bar on my main page. Thank you for all help! Cheers....

                    @rpwsalw It's Gmail itself that is changing the language. Disable the VPN or change the language in Gmail's settings.

                      Maybe I'm missing something here but I don't seem to be able to do this other than drag each link from

                      https://www.sync.opera.com

                      Can't we just block on the correct one and install the saved speed dial like on the Android version?

                        @colej2k Check Other Speed Dials in the bookmarks manager page, opera://bookmarks.

                        Copy the itens from there to Speed Dial if you want to see them in the current Speed Dial.

                          The Opera icon is always active in Windows 10 taskbar, and I don't know why. There are no pending notifications that I can observe.

                          Any idea?

                            @yakichan It means a broken download in your downloads list. Clean it.

                                I believe there's a 'control and something' that will exit full screen when browsing. Escape doesn't work. Any ideas?

                                  @davidr1 F11 is the universal key to enter/exit full screen mode, usually.

                                      @dying0 You can't use mp4, you need to use webm or webp.

                                      See https://dev.opera.com/articles/making-animated-themes/ for more info on how to create an animated wallpaper.

                                        Where do I find the file(s) with the bookmarks and the tabs?
                                        My Opera crashed and I have only my hard drive to download the respective files.

                                            Hello, I ran into a problem.
                                            Reinstalled windows and found the lack of history, settings, passwords and bookmarks.
                                            Is it possible to return everything if it was not synchronized with the account? I mean there is a history cache file on my computer.
