      @theliriox Try renaming the History file in Opera's profile directory. Check opera://about for the path.

          @theliriox You do it in Windows Explorer. Just paste the path to the profile directory in Explorer address bar, find the History file and rename it.

              @theliriox What exactly you do not understand?

              • Open Opera
              • Type opera://about in address bar
              • Press Enter
              • Under Directories find the path to profile
              • Copy it. Copy the full address
              • Close Opera
                _ Open Windows Explorer
              • Paste the path to Opera's profile directory, that you have copied before, into the address bar
              • Press enter
              • Find the History file
              • Right click on it
              • Click on Rename
              • Change the file name to history old
              • Open Opera
              • Visit a few sites
              • Close Opera
              • Open Opera again
              • Check if History is still saved

                I already did it and my history keeps getting deleted because what happens is that when I close the operation the history file is deleted and when I enter another one is created

                  @theliriox So every time you open Opera, opera://history is empty? However if you add a bookmark, you still see it in opera://bookmarks?

                      @theliriox Are you using regular windows to navigate on the web? Any extension or program that may be hiding your traces on the internet?

                        @leocg I use normal navigation, I do not know if some antivurus can block but I uninstalled the one I had and left the default and it continues to erase my history but the rest remains
