RE: How to set up multiple profiles in Opera ?!Opera for Windows
In the Opera program files directory, right-click on launcher.exe to create a new shortcut and place it on your desktop. Then, on the desktop, rename it what you want. Then, right-click on the shortcut, goto properties and then the "shortcut" tab. On that tab, modify the target to add the --user-data-dir command-line switch.
For example:
"C:\Program Files (X86)\Opera\launcher.exe" "--user-data-dir=C:\Users\yourusername\Opera2"
(I personally have a "My Program Files" folder in "C:\Users\myusername", so I'd use "C:\Users\myusername\My Program Files\Opera2" for example.)
You can create as many shortcuts as you want with each using a different profile folder.
See http://peter.sh/experiments/chromium-command-line-switches/#user-data-dir for more info.

RE: Error Message Your Connection Is Not Private When Accessing GMailOpera GX
I finally got this to happen to me in Opera GX. I then went to the URL

RE: [Request] Bluesky for sidebarOpera GX
As an alternative for now, note that you can enable the "Custom user sites for browser sidebar" flag at the URL
opera://flags/#sidebar-site-panel
, restart Opera, click the 3 dots at the bottom of the sidebar, scroll down to "Custom Site Panels" and add the URL for the web app you want (https://bsky.app/
for example).You can't customize the icon for it in the sidebar and you can change its position, but it's something for now.
If you have any trouble logging in to the site in the sidebar, you can log in via a regular tab first and then reload the sidebar.

RE: error 0xc0000022 when trying to open Opera GXOpera GX
@bavali001 said in error 0xc0000022 when trying to open Opera GX:
Any explanation of why the update breaks would be appreciated.
One case is because you have a launcher.exe in the install folder that's for a different version than the Opera you have installed and you're trying to launch Opera with launcher.exe instead of opera.exe. As for why the mismatch, sometimes an update fails to update both in the root of the install folder correctly (where just uninstalling and reinstall alone won't fix it).
Opera doesn't use launcher.exe anymore though and it won't be present in a fresh install folder and fresh Opera GX shortcuts won't reference it. They'll reference opera.exe like they're supposed to now.

RE: error 0xc0000022 when trying to open Opera GXOpera GX
For the non-MS-store version, if it's showing in "Settings -> Apps -> Installed Apps", you need to uninstall it. Then, either way, you need to delete the "Opera GX" folder that's in "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Programs" (or "C:\Program Files"). The uninstall process does not delete the install folder and leaves a few files in it that can cause issues like you're seeing.
You then need to delete any Opera GX shortcuts (on the desktop, in the start menu and on the taskbar) for the non-MS-store version.
Then, in whatever browser you want, download "Opera_GX_116.0.5366.118_Setup_x64.exe" from https://ftp.opera.com/pub/opera_gx/116.0.5366.118/win/, launch it, click "options", set "install path" to "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Programs\Opera GX", set "install for" to "Current user", adjust all the other options as you like and install.
That will give you a fresh install folder of the non-MS-store Opera GX.
Do not use the MS Store version as its way outdated.

RE: Request Preset Workspace Across WindowsSuggestions and feature requests
Each Opera window has its own set of tabs. Workspaces in Opera are just a visual separation of tabs in the window. Given that, you should see why all the workspaces are empty when you open a new window. It's because that window doesn't have any tabs yet besides the one (start page or site you opened in a new window).
In other words, workspace "test" in one window and workspace "test" in another window are not the same workspace. They're different instances of that workspace.
Given that, Opera would have to change the fundamentals of how it handles tabs or set up some kind of workspace syncing across windows to do what you want. It's probably technically possible, but not something simple. You're not the only one that's asked for this though.

RE: shortcut a tab to desktopOpera for Windows
Make sure Opera's window is not maximized so that you can see at least part of your desktop. Then, on the tab in question, drag the badge at the left of the address field (usually the lock icon) and drop it on your desktop. That will create a shortcut for that tab that will launch in the default browser on the system when you double-left-click it.

RE: Lost Speed DialOpera for Windows
Make sure you go into the "Speed dial" folder and left-click the background of the right-hand pane. Or, keep right-clicking in the right-hand pane till you see "paste" in the menu.
You can try right-clicking for "select all" and "copy" in the source folder too if you don't want to use the keyboard shortcuts.
