@user5 Syncronization of extensions can be quite hard to do because of the support for Chrome extensions. However, if Opera show url of extensions at the extension setting page, and if there would be a way to save these url links, it can be easier to install them back.
V7 Extension Manager was a good solution but it was removed from extension store.
Do anyone know any Opera extension that list the url links for all installed extensions? -

@njt145 I dont know about extension, but you can store all installed extension links inside a folder in bookmarks. I have done that.

@honzikprevratil Okay, how did you do that? I really don't know, so I am asking that... Just I mean, I didn't save them so how I can get each extension's url? I know about Opera but what about Chrome extensions on Opera?

@njt145 I have done that manualy one by one. But now, when I install new extension or unsintall existing I delete/add just one bookmark. It is a little bit faster to manually sync all the extensions, when you right click that folder and choose "Open all". I know it is silly, but I haven't found a better way to do it (yet). Same for chrome extensions (I just saved the links).

absurd that you can't do the backup/import at least with another extension?! it seems to me so useful as a function.

+1 very important and deal breaker for some people, especially for people that like to change their device often like tech reviewer. If Opera team want more people to user Opera browser, this should be one of the priority.

I just installed Opera GX, I reallly like it so far, but this is one of the first things I looked for. I can't believe I didn't find extensions under profile -> sync everything.

Its 2024,
can't believe the core team missed this feature. I guess their best interest is to gain new users with fancy features but not to retain them........
Bye Opera GX, I am moving to Arc. Thanks for a great time.
Here is my gift to all of you guys

@pythoneerhiro Opera Developer 107 has an option to sync extensions but it doesn't seem to be working yet.

Opera developers simply do not know how to synchronize extensions, they would have to look at how it is done in other browsers. But unfortunately they don't have access to the sources...
