@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
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/simpleundoclose/emhohdghchmjepmigjojkehidlielknj
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.
Is it just me, or is the normal wonderful popup that appears when you roll the cursor over text that says "Search/Copy/Snapshot." I Hope this is not the case because this was a great addition when it was added many iterations ago. I hope this is just either a glitch or a switch that can be enabled...Please.
I find it works on Some web sites and not others, for instance Amazon pages do not seem to allow the popup - here on This site, it works as advertised
Help, and thanks
@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
@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
In Google Chrome, if you want to find where a bookmark is you can::
"On Chromium, when searching for a bookmark in the bookmark manager, you can click the 3-dots next to the search result and click "Show in folder" to reveal where it was saved"
It would be nice if Opera could do this; otherwise it's difficult to find where a bookmark is within all of your bookmarks, especially if you have many bookmarks.
Unless, I am missing something in the current Opera, adding this option might be a "plus."
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
@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.
I found out how to get my "Undo Closed Tabs Button" extension to appear (click on the "pin" when you click on the cube, but I want to get rid of that damned cube.
For the last few iterations of Opera, Snapshot continues to malfunction. This morning I took a snapshot of a picture on Facebook, and the resulting image was not even close to the one I outlined.
Either fix it or do away with it.
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
@burnout426 said in Newest Opera Reboots When Adding Bookmark By Dragging:
This is fixed in Opera Developer 86.0.4359.0.
Guess I'll have to wait awhile, no big deal, been using the address itself to drag. Thanks, Burnout
Opera 85.0.4341.39 is an unmitigated disaster. Upon relaunch, Opera crashed, and when it rebooted, the crash report said all of my extensions were no longer displayed/available. What I found out is some of my extensions are no longer compatible with the new version of Opera, specifically Translator by sailormax; V7 Bookmarks by vux777. When trying to enable these, Opera crashes again. Uninstalling them and reinstalling only crashes Opera.
HELP!!
@vasyag19 said in Opera 85.0.4341.39 HUGE Extension Issues:
I confirm the fall of Opera.
After updating on Win 7 to version 85.0.4341.39, these three extensions Translator v.1.6.16 by sailormax / uBlock Origin / V7 Bookmarks v.4.8.0 by vux777 cause the browser to crash, the browser restarts and disables all active extensions, when you re-enable any of these two extensions, everything repeats.
Ditto, Exactly
When I open my Spectrum page for Opera 90.0.4480.54 just installed, I see the following text on the right of the page in a column of bout 2 inches wide:: "Today Opera OPRDesktop 28.0 core 1750.0, May 25, 2022. Active patches: 21"
This has never been there before and on my other laptop (both Windows 7 Pro) it does NOT show. I have cleared the cache and reinstalled Opera to see if it disappeared, no such luck, still there.

@leocg said in Chrome vs Opera Security Request When Logging In Bank Site:
@bbildman I would start by disabling tracking blocker for that page
If it's already disabled, I would try using an user agent switcher extension to make the site think that I'm using Chrome and see what happens.
Turning off the tracker blocker did the trick, thanks Leo.
Now that Opera 96 is upon us...I see that if I check "Update & Recovery" Opera downloads 96 (I have Windows 7 and Opera 95), when I click "Relaunch" Opera simply returns to my latest version of 95. And then if I check again, it once again repeats the download and relaunch, rinse and repeat. Fine and good, I now know to not manually check on Update & Recovery.
However, does this mean Opera will incessantly over and over automatically try download 96 and then repeat that updating process, leaving me with my original 95. Then do it again and again. Or have the developers managed to just insert code so that the process never starts??
Thanks for any help/insight.
@burnout426 said in Downloading Updates???:
Delete everything in "C:\Windows\temp" and "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\temp" while Opera 95 is closed. Then, start it and check for updates. Does the download progress bar for the Opera 96 update that gets ignored jump to 100% really fast where the update is not really downloaded (check the temp folders to see)? Or, does the 96 installer really get downloaded?
I imagine that if the last build of 95 wasn't fixed to actually not download the update, Opera 95 might do that repeatedly where there'd be no fix unless a new 95 build was released just to fix it. But, that's just a guess. I would imagine that both Opera 95 (and previous versions) and the update server already have capabilities to totally ignore an update (including its download), but not sure. I guess we'll find out.
I would disable updates to break update checking anyway just for good measure.
Did what you said, Burnie (my name is Bernie, so I get to call you that. 
), both on Update and Recover...and Help/About. Both returned a "Version:95.0.4635.46
Opera is up to date" response, so that takes care of that.
It's all good. I'm going to continue with Opera 95.0.4635.46, and with Windows 7 (which I have been able continue to update with a work around and using the Microsoft Update Catalog). When and if thinngs get sticky, I will either start using a browser that works with Win 7 or update to Win 10.
Thanks for all the help, from you and Leo
