@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)

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

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

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.

@excalibur5 Because there are processes that are not for a tab.
As said, use Shift + ESC to see them. -

@leocg I have been seeing 23 listings in Task Manager and I have 3 open tabs. But I don't know what any of the processes are doing or if they are safe.................

@excalibur5 Please read my previous reply again. I said how you can see what are those processes.

@leocg https://ibb.co/Jr8GTjf Do you mean like this? See image. Right clicking each one does not say anything about what they are

@excalibur5 Nope, forget about Windows task manager and just use Shift + Esc in Opera.

I understand that I cannot change the default search engine, but can I make google to redirect to goole.com.au in address bar instead of google.com, google.com stops working every time I'm on vpn.

There is a google search bar on my opera home page. I do not use google search, how can I remove it from my home page.

@pdoug as said, you can hide it in settings page. Check the start page section.
Thank you, that worked fine.
