      @leocg -- Your reply provided a good clue but did not provide the full solution.

        So many people and not one answer to where is the file where the pinboards are stored?
        Are you kidding me? What kind of support is this?
        I want to hear: "file in folder: "F:\Users"your account name"\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable\Default\Bookmarks"
        copy to the newly installed opera application to disk: "C:\Users"your account name"\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable\Default\Bookmarks"
        And you'll have your pinboards back.
        But there is nothing like that here! And I ask why? Opera must have it stored like that somewhere, and don't tell me it isn't. It must be stored somewhere, I don't understand why I have the Opera Software folder on my computer, why are there so many files and data there? It must be stored somewhere in them damn it!
        You can at least extract it manually from the bookmarks file, but it's a terrible job, I'll tell you that.

            @prston This is the best solution, after opining all my pinboards they got restored, you just saved me from a catastrophe I love you so much (hopefully more ppl will see this so maybe they get it restored)
            Your whole Opera account
            Your Pinboards

              Hi Burnie
              Losing your Pinboards on Opera can be frustrating, especially during its Beta phase. Typically stored locally, check your Opera profile folder (e.g.
              , AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable on Windows) for any cached data. Ensure your browser is updated and try restarting Opera to see if they reappear. For ongoing issues, reporting bugs to Opera's support or forums can help (opera.com/support). Backup tips for Pinboards are crucial; https://www.opera.com/features/pinboards consider saving bookmarks or exporting data periodically to prevent loss.

                Hello All
                I just was having this problem as well and took a little bit to figure it out. At least for me, my pinboards finally synched when I went into each one individually and clicked share. Then enable the "Share pinboard with a link option" and it finally popped up on the synch page and showed up on my laptop.
