@kashifweb As your research probably already told you, your Speed Dial from other Opera installations are in Other Speed Dials and you can copy what you want to Speed Dial to have them in your current Speed Dial.

Has anyone a quick and simple way of adding a Logo or a Picture to the Speed Dial tabs ?

@signpost So your research didn't find nothing helpful in the several posts about it?

Basically you open the page, click on the heart icon in the right of address bar and choose one of images available.

Why do some bookmark images and others do not ? Discord for example and Deepl. Can someone help ?

@pachanga44 When you add a page to Speed Dial you can choose among some images from that page the one to be the thumbnail.
If you want to change that image, you can go to the page, click on the heart icon in the address bar and choose a new one.

I reinstalled Windows 8.1 and moved my backup Opera there.
Same username, same location for Opera, all the same.
But when i launch it - all my passwords are gone(and i had a lot of logins). Tabs are still there, extensions too, all settings and bookmarks as well. But every login data is gone.
I tried to lock the files with read-only option in Windows, but if i lock a lot of them Opera wouldn't even start then. If i lock only "LoginData" it starts, but still there will be no logins. Tried to launch with "--private" key and even lock a bit more files, but selective like "Cookies", "Preferences" and "Secure Preferences" and a few others - Opera was constantly crashing then, like it starts and crash and do that a few times on its own.
I thought that portable means you can take it anywhere and it will be exactly the same at new place. Am i wrong on this one?
Cause i just copied my Firefox and simply put all folders(3 folders - program, 2 of AppData) at the same place and all of my data was fine! And its not even portable version or anything, just a regular setup

So, is there any solution for my case or i gotta say goodbye to all of my logins?

@nocreativity As said, your saved passwords are encrypted using your OS login credentials and can't be used in another OS installation or by a different user.

The only way to "move" saved passwords to a different device/OS installation is by using Sync or by exporting and importing them.

@logojorge As known, only pre-defined search engines can be set as default one. And the one in start page can't be changed.

i tried to do that but the only thing that syncronize was only the bookmarks and the data that I had like passwords and the history but the start page with the speed dials didn´t synchronize I already chekc that I had the last version but it didn´t work

@dalastofos As well known, Speed Dials are synchronized but not automatically populated, you need to do that manually.

See the FAQ. Copy the entries you want to Speed Dial to have them in the current Speed Dial.

@ope3gameux There is no picture in the favorites page, except for the avatar of the author of the post that you marked as a favorite.

@ope3gameux When you add the page to bookmarks, you can choose a image to be set as its thumbnail.

I did 'version' in the search and got a huge amount of info that said copy to clipboard which I did. Do you need me to impart all that info? I hope not.
All I would like to know is - after I have added a few sites to the speed dial page is it possible to delete them from the page?

@bob1954 Right click on them > Send to trash.

I would like to change search engine in the Opera main page box. I don't like Google because it is too much intrusive. Is it possible?

@nippunique As known, the search field in start page can be hidden but it can't be changed.
