I purchased a new computer. On my old machine, I use Opera where there are many folders with many websites in those folders. Is there a way I can synchronize these folders across the two computers? I have an account and I am signed in.
Thank you.

@jaybjay Yes, Speed Dials are synced as part of the bookmarks.
Take a look in Other Speed Dials in the bookmarks manager page.

How can I recover my speed dials into my new opera that are already sync in my account ? I can see them in https://sync.opera.com/web/ and also in other speed dials, but how to bring them back into home page automatically instead of adding them manually one by one.

And the histories and passwords are already synchronized but how can I sync open tabs, and preferences ??

@sdas15 You go opera://bookmarks and copy your Speed Dials from Other Speed Dials to Speed Dial, there is no way to do it automatically.

@sdas15 Synced opened tabs can be found by clicking the tabs icon (the one that looks like a computer) in sidebar or by going to opera://activity, they are not automatically populated in the current installation.

@leocg yeah I figured out this just after I posted, but initially I didn't find any relevant post mentioning the copy/paste way to do this.

Added a new Search Service.
There is no way to select it by default.
Here
[opera://settings/searchEngines](link url)
And it is not added to the Dropbox, here Search engine used in the address bar

@mikola123 As known, only pre-defined search engines can be set as default.

Hello, is there a way to hide the google search bar on the main page? I have set DuckDuckGo as my main search so I do not want to see the Google search bar on my main page. Thank you for all help! Cheers....

@rpwsalw It's Gmail itself that is changing the language. Disable the VPN or change the language in Gmail's settings.

Maybe I'm missing something here but I don't seem to be able to do this other than drag each link from

https://www.sync.opera.com

Can't we just block on the correct one and install the saved speed dial like on the Android version?

@colej2k Check Other Speed Dials in the bookmarks manager page, opera://bookmarks.

Copy the itens from there to Speed Dial if you want to see them in the current Speed Dial.

The Opera icon is always active in Windows 10 taskbar, and I don't know why. There are no pending notifications that I can observe.

Any idea?

@yakichan It means a broken download in your downloads list. Clean it.

I believe there's a 'control and something' that will exit full screen when browsing. Escape doesn't work. Any ideas?

@davidr1 F11 is the universal key to enter/exit full screen mode, usually.
