Where O Where Is OperaMail ?

Opera for Windows

    After installing OperaMail, downloading a bunch of mail from the ISP server I'm migrating away from, where the heck is it stored ? I can't find the directory.

    It's not in the Opera browser folder, and I've looked in Program Files, Program Files (x86), Users, common files, and everywhere else. Can't find OperaMail, Mail, or any other Opera but the browser folder.

    Oh, the OS is Win 7.

    Where does About Opera Mail say?

    Note that the default location is in a hidden folder in Windows - apparently Microsoft does not think you should access your user settings directly. You can copy the path from About Opera Mail and then paste it into Windows Explorer - hidden files and folders open just fine as long as you know the name - or you could go to Folder Options and tell Windows to show you hidden files.

    • I was unaware the directory paths were there in 'About Opera Mail', and never even thought to look.

    • I had turned-off hidden files when I originally set this box up, how it went back the other way is beyond me.

    Thanks, it was driving me bonkers.
