      I have a huge Problem, due to some technical errors I had to make a reinstall of my Windows on my PC.
      I sadly didn't know that everything in my Browser will be cleared after that. I used Opera GX and saved hundreds of links which are important for my work and they are all gone now.
      I didn't make and account but I have in my Explorer the whole Opera GX Stable folder. I was already able to locate and restore the links I had opened, but I can't find my favorites in there.
      Could you please help me and tell me if there is any text file where the favorite links are documented on? I am very desperate and need my favourites again urgently.
      Thanks a lot.

        @hannahquinn Copying the Bookmarks file from the old profile directory to the new one should help.

          @leocg Hi how can I do that when everything is gone? I never made an account in Opera GX and have nothing left except the files in the explorer.

            @hannahquinn Didn't you say that you have the old profile folder? Or maybe I have misunderstood it?

                @hannahquinn Then your bookmarks were lost.
