@techlovegr You mean that you are using workspaces? I'm not sure if they are synced.

@techlovegr Nope, you will have to manually open the tabs.

Hello to all
I had to change Windows and I could not restore the information on Opera after installation. Please tell me how to get the information such as the password of the sites?
Meanwhile, I had logged in to Opera. When logging in again, the information did not return.

@jebraeel Was Sync enabled in the previous installation? Was passwords syncing also enabled? They are enabled in the current one?

If Sync wasn't enabled and you didn't export the saved passwords before the OS change, your passwords are lost

Looks like an incomplete download to me

@leodis It usually means that you have a broken download, try cleaning the downloads list.

Help on changing the default search: https://help.opera.com/ru/latest/search/
does not work for new versions of opera.
I currently have Version: 91.0.4516.16 Windows 64 bit.
I only have 3 options to choose from!! Google can't add!

There is no "Edit Search Engine" button in the top search bar with Ctrl held down
How are things to be, where to look for a crutch ??

@rabbit-pgn List of pre-defined search engines is region based and can change from times to times

@rabbit-pgn You can add Google as a search engine but you will not be able to set it as the default one.

I have over 20 programs of Opera GX in my task manager and this was the reason I switched out from Chrome to Opera GX. How do I reduce these because its taking sometimes over 70% of my memory and over 30% of CPU. I tried the GX control but it didn't help at all. What do I do? (I have good memory and CPU if you're wondering if those are the problems)

@caternal Opera and Chrome are both based on Chromium, which is multi-process.

Based on the task manager image, everything seems normal.

@leocg I'm just asking if you can reduce this amount of everything it takes. It literally took 1% of memory and cpu a few days ago with 1 tab and now it takes 70% with the same tab.

I want to disable the auto updates of opera browser, It's like I wake up at morning check pc and the new version is there, it's annoying how to disable it.

@mdavis3 There is no setting for it, but there are some workarounds that you can try like renaming/deleting the auto update executables in Opera's installation folder.

Hello,

In case Opera browser lose bookmarks and passwords, how do we backup them for later recovery?

[leocg]

leocg Moderator Volunteer @Stringence last edited by

@stringence It was answered several times already, but you can use Sync or export bookmarks and passwords.

[Stringence]

Found the bookmarks export.

Where do I find the passwords export, if there is one?

I read the Help section again. Under Crashes and issues https://help.opera.com/en/latest/crashes-and-issues/ it's described what files to backup manually, and how to restore manually.

I have 10 tabs open in the Opera browser ...why are there 40 processes in task manager. When I have 1 tab open- there are 22 processes or more. I only have a few extensions enabled.
