[Duplicated]How can I recover Bookmarks and User Data After Reinstallation

Hello,
I am experiencing an issue with the Opera browser on my computer. Yesterday, after starting my PC, I was able to launch Opera, but it froze after about 3 seconds of use. After several restarts and troubleshooting attempts, none of which resolved the issue, I decided to reinstall Opera, first keeping my user data intact and then, when that didn’t help, reinstalling with the user data removed.
Before proceeding with the complete reinstallation, I made sure to back up the entire "Opera Stable" folder, which is now stored on my desktop.
Since I wasn’t logged into my Opera account, I am reaching out for assistance in recovering my bookmarks, saved passwords, and other user data from the backup folder I have. Could you please guide me on how to restore these files to the freshly installed browser?
I would greatly appreciate your help.
Thank you in advance.
Kind regards,
Olaf -

@Olafmeeef Replacing the content of the new profile directory with the content of the old profile directory should be enough.

@leocg Yes, i tried to copy and paste but one file is still cosing the error. I end up in the same sitaution after copy paste ( opera is freeze and cant do anything). I was thinking doing copy paste one by one file but it will take me forever. Maybe you could tell me the most important files to replace soo I could work this out in this way

@Olafmeeef Well, that was kinda expected. the Preferences and the Local State files to check if the problem remains.
