          @emmanuelyee This happens with other browsers, if you google "x browser loses tabs" you will see the same issue. The solution with Opera is to save your tabs as a speed dial folder.

              @emmanuelyee If you save your tabs as a speed dial folder, it is a folder on your computer and you won't have lost your tabs. The folder doesn't get wiped out when you do a reset. And saving the tabs is one click, although it has to be in each workspace.

                When you store your tabs as a speed dial folder, you're essentially creating a folder on your computer. This ensures that your tabs remain preserved even after a reset, as the folder remains unaffected. The process of saving tabs is quite convenient, requiring just a single click. However, it's important to note that this action needs to be repeated for each workspace, though.

                  i opened up opera today and there were no bookmarks and extensions that i previously had(before the update), i realized that i was logged out of my opera account, thinking that would solve the problem i logged in, but that didnt help either, basically lost all my passwords too, logged out of everything.

                        On Windows 11 even worse: Opera doesn't launch after upgrading to 102 version. Only spalsh screen displays and then nothing happens. The way I fixed it is to uninstall Opera with removing all user data and then install again (it's neccesacy). Of coure I lost all my unsynchronized data and installed extensions. Futhermore splash screen was displayed every time I launched Opera - not only once after upgrade. I solved it by removing this file: C:\Users\User_Name\AppData\Local\Programs\Opera\Version_Number\opera_gx_splash.exe

                        I think all testers in Opera company are on vacation now 😃

                          Yesterday i was login to use Aria and today after an Opera update (really how many times a week Opera updating without asking me?) my bookmarks and passwords an every extension are gone! This is the last time I am using Opera...I am moving to Brave.

                              After Opera browser updated to 102 version, I've lost everything. It's like I installed a brand new browser completely empty of everything. All speed dials gone (and I had a lot of them), all bookmarks, all logins, passwords, extentions, browser settings ...

                              Fk Opera and their bullshit innovation where it just goes from bad to worse. Now I'll need to waste days to fix the broswer again to what it was and I'll loose some speed dials as I can't remember all of them. Real f*ing nice.

                              After well over a decade it's time to find a new browser, I'm done with Opera.

                                Just so everybody knows -- Opera is aware of the issue:
                                https://blogs.opera.com/desktop/2023/08/introducing-opera-102/

                                This is how I fixed it:

                                1. Uninstall Opera 102 through Windows control panel. When you do this make sure "delete all data" is NOT checked.
                                2. Download Opera 101 from https://get.geo.opera.com/pub/opera/desktop/
                                3. Install that version and re-start Opera.

                                That seemed to bring back all my settings, bookmarks, etc.

                                  @sklunk I tried and ran the restore point from yesterday in windows 11. Even though the proces said that it wasn't succesfuly finised (as antivirus probably locked some system files), I still tried to open Opera and voila I got everything back as it was. So if anyone has this problem, perhaps try with Windows system restore.

                                  If Opera is avare, they should remove the update from the pipelane long ago, not that I still got the update like two hours ago.

                                    @bigone201 I think brave is a good solution my friend. I had the same problems. After every Opera update I was loosing my Opera shortcut icon from my toolbar. Now this... I ve lost all! Fucking updates! At least they have to ask us if we want the updates.

                                        WTF was this update?!!?! I don't even have words to express how much I hate opera right now! I had hundreds of bookmarks organized, categorized. Everything suddenly disappeared. Lots of things not working right that should have been fixed a long time ago and weren't in the various recent updates. I can't wait to recover the data (if I can) and import it into another reliable browser, because I don't trust anything else in opera!! Opera managed to take the place of the old internet explorer as the most hated browser in the world!!! Didn't it cross anyone's mind to test this forced update before sending it to users? Primary error, from non-professionals.
