Old Speed Dial can't be recovered

Please bear with me as I describe this problem. My wife has a Win 10 laptop with 64bit Opera on it, has had no problems with Opera at all (Version 99.0.4788.9 Update checker is disabled). We bought a new laptop with Win 11 installed and migrated her Win 10 system to 11, using Laplink/PCMover. All went well, Opera moved over with what we thought were no problems. When I opened Opera, the original Speed dial icons were replaced with some others. So, I decided to approach the problem like this::
I copied the entire Opera folder with the program and launcher in it, as well as the Opera Stable folder from App Data/Opera Software, which includes bookmarks etc from the Win 10 laptop to the new machine after emptying those folders on the Win 11 laptop. Same result, Speed Dial icons are not there. I had thought Speed Dials were included in the Bookmarks file in the Opera Stable folder...seems that ??Maybe?? they are located elsewhere.
I considered just synchronizing the two, but was hesitant because I did not want all of my bookmarks synced, just Speed Dial. I remember before that you could sync just Speed Dials, but I do not see that possibility when I sign in to her Opera account. I really hate using sync because I have had much trouble in the past.
Can someone please help me??
Thanks

@leocg Wow, Leo, you hit the Speed Dial problem on the head, I know I looked before at those, but now I see kind of hidden down in the other few "Other Bookmarks" was a folder that had ALL of her icons from the other laptop, now all I have to do it simply copy them over the the main Speed Dial folder...Thank You.
So any times over the year I present problems here and you always seem to be able to figure the out. You're the best!!!!
