I give. How does one change paths under Opera 34?

Finally made the switch from 12 to 34 under Win7. Everything went pretty well, but I had to move my Ver.12 profile to the ".../users/..../AppData/Opera Software" directory to import bookmarks and whatnot. I much prefer to keep my profile on a networked drive that gets backed up regularly. Pretty easy to do under Ver.12 and before, but I've yet to find a way to do this with 34. I assume I need to add some startup parameters to the shortcut, but what?

Single-user install, or multi-user?

Multi-user. Sorry, should have mentioned that.

You need to add a command line to Opera's shortcut.

I don't have it now but if you search for Chromium command lines you should find it.

Holy cow. There are a bunch of them, aren't there? This might take a while as I'm not seeing anything obvious like
"--profile-path".

Thanks, I will try this, but it appears that will move the cache, so I need to find a way to keep any caches on the local drive.
