      Should one CLOSE the browser first?

        I just tried changing google.ru to google.com here - it saved, but the search's interface remained in as-if-Russian anyway. (Yes, I restarted.)

          To edit the file? Yes.

            Open "Local State" on e text editor and change the country code on the following lines:
            "location": {
            "country": "br",
            "country_from_server": "BR",

            In your case they should be "UK".
            Note: You should do it while Opera is closed.

            Where is this profile and what should I insert - "BR" or "UK"?

              See OMenu > About Opera for the path to the profile folder. Or type opera:about on the address bar.

              what should I insert - "BR" or "UK"?

              You should insert the country code that you want.

              UK would be United Kingdom, US for USA, DE for Germany, FR for France and so on. There is a list here

                I tried that.
                I saw the path, went to the folder, searched manually, searched with the system searcher all the ways possible - nothing. Neither "profile" folder nor any "Local State" file.
                If it must be there - what subfolder could it be?
                I searched in my other Opera place too (in "Program files") - nothing as well.

                  You need to place a dot in 'Show hidden files and folders', found via the 'Tools/Folder Options...' menu option and then click the 'View' tab.

                    Where?
                    The folder in question was hidden alright - it's shown when I go to it directly one way or another still, so (as I said) I searched it.
                    Or are there more - like hidden-hidden/superhidden/megahidden folders? 😉

                      This is a Opera Blink's file. IIRC you are still using Opera Presto.

                        Yup.
                        "About" says it's 11.61 - while for the long time I believed it'd been 'updated' to 11.63. (Strange.)
