I was unstalling an older version of Opera, now my Opera browser is Gone. I know I can download new, though want to reinstall what I had because it has all my info over yrs. Yikes!

By default, when you uninstall Opera, your data remains at "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable" and "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Opera Software\Opera Stable".
Those will only be wiped if you tell Opera to delete your data when the uninstaller asks. If you didn't do that, your data should still be there and should be used when you reinstall Opera.
If you did tell the uninstaller to delete your data, it'll be gone and you can't get it back. Your only hope then is a backup or if you were using Sync and everything is still present at https://www.sync.opera.com/.

@burnout426 oh thanks so very much! My mate knows all the tech stuff so he just told me to download Opera and like you said, he probably knew I was sync up or whatever you two know about these things.
Geez, I couldn't give your reply a thumbs up, sorry about that.Take care & enjoy your weekend..
