I have 12.6, but want to try 20. How do I keep 12.6 while trying out 20?

Just install them in different folders and you will be able to use both

We have some people saying you need to install Opera 20 or 21 in the same directory/folder as Opera 12.xxx or the bookmarks importer for Opera 20/21 won't work. Ideally, you want to be able to get the Opera 12 bookmarks into the new Opera. The issue of that Bookmark Importer is a bit unclear. It seems to say the least temperamental, and I'm still puzzling on what would make it certain to work.

Thanks for the replies. I'll try different folders as a start.

This is a good post to look at by leocg. He has a view on getting Bookmark Importer to work that may be the key
