      And since the Wand is gone, there is no password protection for our passwords/logins, what a nice security hole.

        And as I suggested, with the wand gone, use Lastpass. It will also allow syncing across your devices.

          With Opera 30.0 I am missing passwords, bookmarks, and the functionality to manipulate what I have remaining. The new glitzy format is just not for me so I will be migrating to another browser, non-chrome based. With all the other issues of the new and improved Opera I am finding it somewhat difficult to move those items remaining from Opera to any other browser. Is that part of the improved set up? or am I overlooking something?

            Your passwords are encrypted using your OS credentials.

              For the passwords new system, is it like others navigators (IE, i hate you!) : when you want to delete , if you had only one registered, it becomes impossible to "save" another password, the navigator never ask you if you want to save? Or is Opera clever?
              And if somebody could ask my question, i would be a very very very happy girl :

              Is it a place where i can find a version between 19 and 24 of Opera? On the archives of Opera's site, there is only version 12.... very old!!!

                  Afaik if you change your login credentials, Opera will ask if want to save the new one.

                      Finally, i don't love you! Your version is a big shit, installing Opera30 whatever the version you choose, and it is just the hell to delete it, i failing to restore my computer to delete! 😣

                        Here's a thought, newrock106: you don't have a clue how to use your computer or your software. No one else is having the issues you evidently are having. To express your anger at leo and at Opera for your own ignorance is inexcusable.

                          newrock 106, perhaps it's a stupid question but are you sure that it isn't Opera 12.17 that you are looking for?

                          After version 12 Opera released with version 15 a totally new browser and the versions between 19 and 24 are not so different from version 30.

                          When reading your first post I realised that all functions you described are functions from Opera 12 and they are not longer part of Opera beginning with version 15.

                            installing Opera30 whatever the version you choose

                            Opera is probably just autoupdating. You need to disconnect from the internet before installing Opera, then rename opera_autoupdate.exe and renove the autoupdate task from the task manager to disable the autoupdate.

                            After that you can reconnect and use Opera.

                              Did this get posted to the right thread? Try as I may, I can't sync your quote reference to anything up above.

                                  Aaack! O.O I must have looked at that particular post a dozen times and, for some reason, never recognized the part you quoted. My apologies...!
