        @browzer1 Widevine has nothing to do with bookmarks or speed dial.

            Reinstalling the whole profile defeats the purpose of a clean program reinstall.

            The problem I had, which led to this post, is that either copying the backed up bookmarks file back in, or the one exported before the clean install, didn't do anything. There's more to it and I haven't quite figured it out yet (was a whole lot easier with Presta).

                @ici-o Yes, it does backup Speed Dial.

                      @genegold It's where you find Speed Dials from other Opera's installations when using Sync or when copying the bookmarks file.
