Hi,

Moving from FF to Opera on my Linux workstation, I try to familiarise a little with the pretty different interface. I have succeeded to setup sync like in FF and also import easily all my bookmarks and install my Bitwarden extension.
I just have a little issue. How to remove Google search from default new tab ? or at least change it for Duck Duck Go that is my default search engine setup already for address bar ! I can't find in settings how to change that ? I was able to remove all the crap shortcuts present there by default but not the search engine

Thanks for your ideas, suggestions

@vincelaus You can't change the search engine in start page, you can just hide it using the option in the start page section of the settings page.

@nanny91317 It's probably related to updates already downloaded.

@milanese Backup the Bookmarks file located in Opera's profile directory. Check opera://about for the path.

@leocg Thank you very much for your kind reply. I have backed up the Bookmarks + BookmarksExtras files but the subsequent restoration takes place for the bookmarks on the bookmark bar while the web pages stored on the quick access page are not restored. Didn't I understand something? Where am I wrong? Thank you. Milanese

@milanese Go to the bookmarks manager page (opera://bookmarks) and go to the Other Speed Dials "folder" on right.
Find the entries you want to add to your Speed Dial and drag or copy/paste them to the Speed Dial folder.
