      I currently have an older version of Opera and the current version installed on my computer and the two use separate searches, cookies, bookmarks, ect. New Opera runs pretty well (especially with bookmarks now finally) so I want to update my old version. Problem is, it seems as if when creating a new install folder, all instances of Opera use the same bookmarks, cookies, ect. How can I with the current version install and run two separate instances of Opera without them sharing all their data like speed dials and whatever else.

        1. Run latest installer
        2. click "Options..." in the lower left
        3. select "USB install" instead of "for all users"

        It'll have its own profile then.
