      Hello,
      I need to know how can I change the name of the profile which is associated with my current device. What I mean is the name you see in the synchronized devices.
      I bought a new computer and made the "mistake" to copy some files of my Opera profile (I guess) from my older computer. Now in the synchronized devices, my current, new computer has the same name as the older one, which is confusing. This is why I'd like to know how to edit the profile name.
      Thanks in advance!

        @basslh-0 In the bookmarks page, go to 'other speed dials', right click on the folder you want to change and click on edit/rename.

          @basslh-0 You can also try setting a clean profile folder for Opera.

            This seems to work, thank you!
