      @falloutboy09 nope, that one is the installation folder. See about Opera for the path to the profile directory.

          @falloutboy09 yes, this is where your data is stored.

            Thanks you. I'm trying it right now, as I have a version on a USB-Stick.
            After copying the files, I found that have to reset some 48 features and enable them again - like the sidebar. Something to remember if I update my regular Opera version.

            Thx for the assistance and fast help, like always leocg

              Sorry to bother you again, but something feels amiss with my 48 version. Something I just realized now as I was looking at the changelog for the 49 Version.

              The "search pop up tool" as its called in the introduction.

              For some reason, I have the right click and select via the old menu - a feature which can NOT be caputered by the new snapshot feature 😞

              Didn't see an option to activate it in settings

                First, why don't upgrade to 49? Second, I guess 48 already had the search pop-up but probably not with all of the features.

                Check if there is a flag to enable them.

                  ahh right, flags, forgot about them.
                  Good question why the 48 portable doesn't update - will do it manually with my main browser if this test of 48 runs smooth.

                    all features are enabled, but a flag to enable POP-up search itself I wasn't able to find.

                      @falloutboy09 There is one anymore as the experiment probably already ended and the feature incorporated into Opera.

                      You shouldn't need to turn it on. If it's not working then something is wrong with your installation or there is a bug.

                        I assume a bug, as I can't remember seeing that as I was using the 48 version as a clean slate, before I coppied the files.
                        thanks for the help.
                        Will keep it in mind when I update my regular Opera to the new version, maybe next year
