No Speed Dials on start page

I have had to update my PC last week as I had a blue screen and now have windows 11 . Before that, I had all my speed dials showing on my first page of Opera and now they show only on the side where the heart is. How can I have them back on the browser opening page without having to add them one by one? I am aware that I can click in advanced settings to have speed dials showing but this does not allow for those I have already. Any suggestion? Thank you.

You just updated Windows 10 to Windows 11 for example, or did you install Windows 11 fresh?

If the latter, how did you get your old data into your Opera on the new Windows install? Did you use Opera Sync before and after the Windows install to sync your bookmarks etc.? If so, goto the URL opera://bookmarks and move the bookmarks for the speed dials (wherever they may be) to the "Speed Dial" bookmarks folder. Then they should show up on the start page.

Thanks for the reply. I have windows 11 freshly added this past week. I had windows 10 before. I have managed to get my speed dials on the first page. I had to add them one by one I had synchronised with my mobile before the PC was down. So I had all my speed dials in mobile and they came back to my PC opera, but not as big tiles just on the left-hand side where the heart is as speed dials in names but not tiles. But I managed to work it out. I opened them one by one (those I wanted to keep) in a new tab and then copied the url then put in as a speed dial on the opera first page. Fiddly, but feasible... I thank you for your reply though.

Okay. At the URL opera://bookmarks, you should have seen them in a speed dial folder for the other device (your mobile device). You could have then just selected all of them (ctrl + a), copied the selection (ctrl + c), went into your (the main one for Opera desktop) "speed dial" bookmarks folder, and pasted (ctrl + v).

But, glad you still got it using another method.
