@forestworker90 When you add a custom search engine and uses it, the browser makers don't get any revenue from the searches made.
For browsers like Chrome and Edge it doesn't make that much difference because Google and Microsoft don't depend on that source of revenue, but for the small independent browser makers losing such revenue may have a huge impact.

Duck Duck Go doesn't pay me anything, but for sure it should have some kind of agreement with Opera.

So why there's an issue with adding "https://search.brave.com/" or "https://www.ecosia.org/" or "https://youcare.world/" or even "https://searx.space/"? Is opera against what users want? I am using chrome and firefox (firefox is also independent and lives through users) and both are user-friendly but opera isn't. I feel so much bad using opera with so many limitations.

Will you guys consider adding an option as chrome has under "chrome://settings/searchEngines" or not?

@omegagameryt3 As already said several times, depending on the type of file the dialog to choose where to save the file will always be displayed for security reasons.

I had Opera working perfectly when it became necessary for me to reset Windows 11. Before doing so, I backed up the folder containing my Opera bookmarks. Following the reset of Windows 11, I have re-installed Opera but I can find no way of regaining and displaying my old speed dial icons from the backup I made. Any help with this problem would be very much appreciated. TIA.

Bookmarks (which includes Speed Dials) are stored in the "Bookmarks" file in Opera's profile folder. The thumbnails though are stored in the "BookmarksExtras" file. You need to restore both.

There's no option to turn off the link tooltip.

For me, in regular Opera, I don't see any issue with the tooltip being black at first. Your opera://flags page looks funny though. No blue links, text isn't a bright white, and the logo isn't bright with color. Do you have any dark mode extensions like Dark Reader installed?

@paleloiterer Go to opera://bookmarks and copy them from other speed dials to speed dial

Hello, I have returned to Opera after sometime away and there have been changes. Firstly I notice that Opera uses 12 processes when idle ie: when start page is loaded but not connected to the Internet, is this number normal ?
Also I cannot find an "About" page in Opera, how do I access it. Before it would have browser version and whether it was up to date.

I had to return to Opera because another browser that I use has made lots of changes recently that interferes in some aspects with my access to the Internet that fortunately does not happen with Opera !
I would be grateful if someone could help me with my questions. Thanks.

@mike88 Chromium is multi-process, so it's normal to have several processes running in Opera. Use Shift+Esc to see them.

Hello to everyone,

I have synch my laptop with my desktop opera accounts. I can see bookmarks but i can't syncronize tabs. I want the opened tabs i have at my laptop (work) to have them at my desktop (home). Is this possible???

@techlovegr There are lots of posts about it already, you could have followed the rules and searched for them

Basically, opened tabs from other installations can be accessed by clicking on the tabs icon in sidebar or by going to opera://activity
