The easiest way to keep your old Startpage/Speed Dial settings, etc (between PCs at least), is to copy the entire Opera Stable folder from one PC to another (it's usu less than 20MB so it's not massive), you can find it here:

%appdata%/Roaming/Opera Software/Opera Stable

If you're running Opera at the time, you'll get a couple of 'cannot copy' or 'file in use' errors - this is just the files and tabs that are currently open.

For those using Windows 10, you can find the %appdata% folder by literally just putting "%appdata%" in the Start/Search box...

Hope this helps. If you're feeling more daring, you can look at the files using Notepad, which'll at least tell you what you have and haven't got in each one.

i would like to know in which of the file opera keeps the speed dial list.

Until 28 in the file "favorites.db". Starting on 29 in the file "Bookmarks".

SELECT "[" || name || "](**" || url || "**)" FROM favorites WHERE type=0

Also, if you have folders in your SpeedDial, try something like:

SELECT "<dt>" || a.name || "[" || b.name || "](**" || b.url || "**)</dt>" FROM favorites a, favorites b WHERE b.type = 0 AND b.parent_guid = a.guid

But in this case you'll have to manually edit the resulting html Bookmarks file to be able to import it to Firefox/Chrome. It's easy, just create headers for each folder in the html file.

ambiguous column name: url: SELECT "

I only see the url column used in one table, so I don't see what the problem is.

Thank you in advance.

SELECT "[" || c1title || "](**" || c0url || "**)" FROM stash_fts_content JOIN stash ON stash_fts_content.docid = stash.uid ORDER BY stash.last_visit_date DESC

• Download and install SQLite Browser
• File -> Open Database: %appdata%\Opera Software\Opera Stable\stash.db
• Swich to tab Execute SQL
• Enter command:

SELECT '[" || c1title || "](\*\*' || c0url || "\*\*)"
  FROM stash_fts_content
  JOIN stash
    ON stash_fts_content.docid = stash.uid
  ORDER BY stash.last_visit_date DESC

• Copy&paste the results to notepad
• Edit -> Replace " to nothing (remove quotes)
• Edit -> Replace ** to " (convert ** to quotes)
• Now save the file as blabla.html, don't forget to use UTF-8 to preserve accented characters, if any.
• In Firefox: Show All Bookmarks (Ctrl-Shift-B) -> Import -> Import from HTML
• Browse for the blabla.html

The bookmarks get imported to Bookmarks Menu, sorted the recently visited first, keeping the Titles and URLs.

You can do a manual backup of certain files in opera profile

Speed dial: "favorites.db" and "favorites.db-journal" and if you want to backup the speed dial thumbnails as well also backup "thumbnails.db" and "thumbnails.db-journal"

Stash: "stash.db" and "stash.db-journal"

Bookmark bar: "Bookmarks" and "Bookmarks.bak" and "bookmarks.db-journal"

For a full profile backup copy the entire folder:
C:\Users(Your User)\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable

I hope a backup tool will appear for opera 20+.

create folders in Speed Dial by simply dragging one speed dial page (bookmark) on top of another
Hi Bobbybreeze, try this, but here in the latest Opera 20.0.1387.64, it works without problem also, when this flag is disabled.

As for the SD combining into a folder, everything works fine here. There's indeed only a narrow area where the dragged SD is recognised as a candidate to be dropped into the one below. Is it possible that you move them in too wide sweeps and they keep eluding the drop and just relocating?
