      @bbildman Okay. I still can't reproduce that way on Windows 11. Wonder if it's limited to Win 7 and Win 8 for example. I'll check in a minute and report back.

        I couldn't reproduce on Win 7 either. However, running the 32-bit version of 84.0.4316.14 on Windows 11, I was able to get Opera to crash twice by opening the bookmarks panel, pinning it, and dragging to a folder under "Bookmarks Bar" in the *panel" instead of via the folder on the bookmarks bar itself. But, it was a delayed crash and now I can't reproduce it again. I'll try more later.

          Reproduce it or not, it seems obvious to me there IS an issue here depending on the setup, that it is present on both my and my wife's laptops (both Win 7 Pro and both HPs but totally different bookmarks.speed dials etc) tells me Something is amiss. Thanks for taking the time to help, I do have that workaround, but the behavior is definitely Not the same from older (prior to 84) versions when it all worked fine.

            Hello. I don't have crashes but I didn't want to open a new topic since it's closely related and people already talking about adding bookmarks here, so excuse my intrusion.

            When I add bookmark into a folder with drag and drop option, it was adding new bookmarks to the bottom. After the update, now it adds to the top. After getting used to something for many years of use, these sudden changes bothers me a lot and I want it to add new bookmarks to the bottom, not the top of the folder. Is there anyway to change it back to how it was before?

            Thank you.

              @haplo Since it's unrelated, please open a new topic.

                    I'm able to reproduce the crash now with the details I mention at https://www.reddit.com/r/operabrowser/comments/t2teji/comment/hyoqcqz/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3. The bug is reported internally. Thanks and sorry I couldn't reproduce earlier.

                      Burnout, Thank You so much, I thought for a while I was going crazy and the bug existed in just my home. 🙂

                      (One thing I learned during this discussion is that I didn't know you could actually drag the highlighted address down to a bookmark bar folder, and indeed That way Does work correctly.)

                          @bbildman Yeah, it's not fixed yet. When you see DNA-98092 in the changelog for a build, then it should be fixed.

                              Guess I'll have to wait awhile, no big deal, been using the address itself to drag. Thanks, Burnout

                                    Of interest, burnout, the issue reappeared in 85.0.4341.18, except it doesn't cause a reboot, it just doesn't place the new bookmark in the dropdown folder.

                                    BUT...in today's update, 85.0.4341.28, it's back working again.

                                    🙂 🙂 🙂

                                      Is there anyone beside me still having this. I'm on 86.0.4363.23 but still bookmarks adding top of the folders by dragging.

                                        @mstfcbngl Everything is good in 86.0.4363.32 64-bit on Windows 11 Version 21H2 (Build 22000.652) for now. Can't find a way to crash. If the bookmarks bar folder is blank, Opera blocks dragging to its empty menu and you can only drag and drop on top of the folder itself. If the folder is not empty, dragging and dropping in the folder's menu in any position works fine. No crashes or anything like that.

                                          @burnout426 I haven't crash either. I just complain that when I drag a bookmark into a folder, the folder is added to the top instead of the bottom.

                                            @mstfcbngl Oh, gotcha. That's an intended change that was made a while ago to be consistent with other methods of bookmarking adding to the top. It's unlikely to change back to the old way. An option would be nice of course.
