      I have noticed this is a common theme, but usually it's related to other browsers/computer use.

      I need to do a system restore, like yesterday but I cannot find the possibility to save all my bookmarks as I have tons of recent additions. Please can anyone advise me? I have signed up for opera link, which doesn't seem to be ready yet... yawn!
      I really don't have energy to waste on this so I'd be glad to know a quick and efficient way to do this without resorting to manual saving.

        Please see: http://help.opera.com/opera/Windows/1583/en/solutions.html#backup

        Backing up the whole Opera's profile folder is the best thing to do.

          I would like to back up my bookmarks, and the link above shows the files, but they are not visible on my Win7 and when I try to export the bookmarks to html file via opera option all i get if a NULL folder and nothing in it, and when i check the html file, it has had nothing exported into it.

          My Opera worked just fine until this new method of bookmarking, WHY, change something that works to something that doesnt????

            The instructions are for Opera Blink (Opera 15+) and you seem to be using Opera Presto as Opera Blink doesn't have a bookmark's exporting tool.

            If this is the case, here ar ethe backup instructions: http://help.opera.com/Windows/12.10/en/backup.html
