        Which versions of Opera are we talking about here? We don't know what release "the last one" in nor do we know which release is from "a couple weeks ago".

          Ty lando242 for your reply and I will tell you what I have atm

          Version 12.17
          Build 1863
          Platform Win32
          System Windows 7
          (Opera/9.80 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) Presto/2.12.388 Version/12.17)

          this is what I can find about the version which updated to what it is today... I normally expect to be asked and before the following this only involved doing the update for security and etc.
          Today I got a screen saying something like 'It is now time to Update...' and I thought I could just ignore it as I have done before as I already have the so-called new version downloaded...
          just a note.. I now seem to have my Firefox Bookmarks.. I keep seperate browsers for the reason that the 'browser-game' I play suffers from having too many tabs open at the same time

          Version: 27.0.1689.66
          (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/40.0.2214.94 Safari/537.36 OPR/27.0.1689.66 (Edition Campaign 67))

          This following version was the one I didnt find I enjoyed and went back to the one I had been used to as this new one came up as a stand alone browser in the Toolbar, leaving the one I liked in the Toolbar

          So now I dont know how to reclaim the version I liked, nor do I know what it was as it has now been overwritten and apparently my Bookmarks are not as I left them.. no files and I think many are now missing

          I hope you can advise me...

          regards again

            Both versions are still on your computer.

            Go to the install folder, look for opera.exe, send it as a shortcut to the desktop and you'll have your old Opera again.

            If it doesn't work, you can download it here
