@leocg You say, "For me, bookmarks should have been removed from browsers a long time ago and I've been saying it since a while.
They simply don't make that much sense nowadays "
Disagree with you, Leo. I have MANY arcane bookmarks that took me a long time to discover that involved MUCH searching. To abandon those bookmarks would be a kind of browser suicide for me. Who wants to try to retrace the steps I took to have found those sites in the first place, much work went into finding them
@alexs said in Where is the "Recently closed tabs/Tab menu" button on the top right?:
@bbildman I know, see my post above with the extension
Undo Closed Tabs Button
https://addons.opera.com/de/extensions/details/undo-closed-tabs-button/
or
SimpleUndoClose

Although your extension works, it takes up more real estate on the extensions bar, if the enabled opera://flags/#search-in-closed-tabs would simply show more than 3 of the closed tabs, we'd be back where we were, with the little search icon replacing the old icon that we used to see recently closed tabs from O69 and before. Not sure why developers are being so obstinate in allowing a user to enable this former way to see closed tabs.
@alexs opera://flags/#search-in-open-tabs is now gone, and the icon in the upper right of the toolbar is no longer available in O70. No matter that so many have lamented about this, they still removed it without a remedy to enable it like we had in O69. Sucks
Snapshot now is better...and but you have to add the ability to save it in different formats and also to be able to save it in a folder that is remembered just like downloads are saved. Saving it to the desktop as a default is not efficient if I have to change it every time I take a snapshot
@jtgd At the end of the day, I do not believe Touch is meant to REPLACE Opera Browser for Andorid, but to rather supplement it for those who want this kind of Web browser. For me, I will stick to the BROWSER, it's seems that Opera Browswer (Android) is still being developed, I see forum posts about O46 Beta etc. - so there will be updates to our current OBFA
The Beta Version is available on Google Play::
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.opera.browser.beta
Opera browser beta 46.0.2246.126895
Newest iteration of O60 (60.0.3255.55)::
Speed Dial continues to have a VERY noticeable delay each time a new tab is opened, as well as when Opera is initially booted. Hopefully this will be fixed soon.
Anyone else continuing to see this in 60.0.3255.55??
@azotovant said in Where are the bookmarks.:
I've submitted a comment in this topic and it haven't been posted for some reason. Can someone explain why the Bookmarks were removed from the new browser? It seems to me that just saying that it's not relevant anymore is not a good answer. I've been using Opera for a very long time and I would like to use Opera Touch but I would like to have Bookmarks feature available and easy to access. Otherwise I'm not using it, staying on the old version or switching to other alternatives, which are plenty out there.
Not sure, but Touch does not mean the end of the development of Opera Browser for Android. Personally I have no plans to install Touch and will continue with the normal Android Opera Browser, which has served me well.
The desktop is the place where the Snapshot Capture saves its "png" files...rather than my already specified download location. Is this an oversight?? Bug?? It's a hassle to have to go and find my assigned download location each time I save a Snapshot image
Or is there a way to set the download location for Snapshot Capture image??
Thanks
@burnout426 said in Speed Dial Disappeared O 74.0.3911.139:
Do you use Opera Sync and sync settings?
Hi burn, solved problem by uninstalling Opera, reinstalling it in same folder, then after running it as a clean install closed it and copied previously copied Opera Stable profile in roaming folder, this with all bookmarks, extensions, and speed dial etc. I believe the issue was with a registry entry problem, so now all is well. I never leave sync on ever!!
Thanks for replying.
@bbildman In addition, my privacy protections (block ads/block trackers was turned off, whereas before 74.0.3911.144 was installed it was on. Thankfully the exceptions are still there when I turned it on.
Also previous extensions are gone
Opera 74.0.3911.144:: Speed dial has been replaced by nothing but advertising icons, my original speed dial has been moved to Other Speed Dials. Setting have been changed so that advertising speed dial icons are displayed, and also Opera now displays my open tabs from previous close when I pen a new session. What has happened, how to prevent this??
Speed dial is gone replaced with stores and suggestions. I found my original speed dial under "Other Speed Dials" - why has this happened and how do I prevent this to happen again??
In addition, some of my settings about what gets displayed on opening, like now it has show tabs that were open when Opera was closed. What has happened??

@leocg You dont answer to the questions.. Can you help opera browser' users, yes or not ? They are crying for help since 6 months.
a better place to put your comments/complaints is
https://blogs.opera.com/desktop/
and then look for the version you have, click on it, there you can leave comments...better chance of Opera tech seeing it there. Leo is appreciated here, he helps us immensely.

@bbildman I dont like Lightshot because it is not simple and easy to use.
Not sure what you mean by "not simple and easy to use" because once you install it, all you do is hit your keyboard shortcut and you basically are shown the same screen as the Opera screenshot, once you outline the area you have the option to copy it, save it, print it etc. What could be easier. And in addition, you can use Lightshot in ANY application you choose. For instance the other day I was watching a movie, I paused the movie, hit the Lighthot keyboard shortcut and was able to outline and save whatever part of the movie screen I wanted.

@sknfer-lmalem Hello, no, the bug was ameliorated but not fixed by Opera who doesnt give a f... for the browser's issues. You have the choice of choosing Mozilla Firefox, or another browser but the screenshot doesnt work with Opera. Very sad thing from Opera.
I hae posted many times here, use Lightshot, it's head and shoulders better than the native screenshot in Opera
Lightshot::
@donq Yes, I see that. My question is why Opera started doing this pop-up in the first place?
@burnout426 Using Windows 7, yes when I go to that https://webtorrent.io/free-torrents site, I also have that pop-up WITH the option (checkbox included). However, I have MANY other torrent web sites that have the pop-up without the checkbox - for instance http://kat.rip/movies/ . In this case, it will continue to pop-up each time you click a magnet link because there is no checkbox option.
And in previous versions of O, even if you clicked the checkbox, it continued to pop up that warning. Each new version of Opera continues yet again with the pop-up. My original question was is there any way to simply eliminate that pop-up query box completely?? In previous version, a few back, the pop-up wasn't even present at all. It was added in the last couple versions. Is there an option in flags that will eliminate the query completely??
Thanks
@burnout426 said in Magent Pop-up:
Is there still a checkbox to not ask you again? If so, I think it only works on secure pages. If it's just an http page, the checkbox will be ignored.
That option is now gone in 73.0.3856.284; and in previous versions, it didn't matter if you checked that box or not, it still popped up subsequently.
