Hi,
Just downloaded the letast Opera Beta for Windows 10. I used to use the regular Opera browser. Problem is it didn't import any of my settings and saved passwords. I don't see an option to import them in the settings; i only see other browser (Firefox, Edge, etc.).

How can i import the settings and saved passwords from Opera to Opera Beta?

Thanks in advance

@outofstockfish You can use Sync or you can just copy the content of one profile directory and paste into the other, new, one.

Thanks for your reply.
I pasted the old profile directory into the new one, and unfortunately all it seem to have done is log me out of everything i was logged in to and erase all saved passwords.. I think i'll just try to restore everything manually.

@outofstockfish That was expected, since you are starting over again.

@leocg Oh maybe i wassn't clear in my question, but what i wanted was to copy my saved passwords in the old directory to the new directory/Opera browser. It's not a big deal, just a bit unclear to me why there is no option to import them via the settings. But i guess i should of synced them..

@outofstockfish If it's really a new installation, with a new profile directory, just copying Login Data from the old profile to the new one should be enough.

If it doesn't work, you can export your passwords in the old Opera and import in the new one.

And you can use Sync too.
