Hi.

I'm trying to import bookmarks from Firefox (Windows 10, latest Opera and FF) using opera's native import feature, I click the button and nothing happens. Any ideas?

TIA

R.

Which version of Opera are you using?

So you go into setting, hit import and no window comes up?

Version: 39.0.2256.48
System: Windows 10 64-bit (WoW64)

Yes. The steps to reproduce are:

Alt-P
Menu item 'Browser', Import bookmarks and settings (under Default Browser)
Click, source Mozilla Firefox, all checkboxes checked, click import
Appears popup "Chosen data and settings has been imported", click 'ready'

go to 'bookmarks' - all categories are empty

(I've reverse-translated the messages from polish, so they can be a little bit inaccurate)

try another way

go to bookmarks of FF and choose export to HTML
open opera and import from HTML file (point to the saved FF html file)
On the bookmarks of Opera left side you gonna see a map calling 'imported"

Hope it helps

Exporting to HTML, then importing into Opera will work.
