Please have a look at DuckDuckGo if mainly privacy is of your concern. It will enhance your current searching experience greatly. I have had a quick look at Ixquick, and I do not see any reason why one would want to use an unknown copycat website that does nothing but worsen your searching experience compared to the great alternatives out there.
All of the major search engines seem to be included with Opera. Although the ability to set a custom search engine as default is currently missing, I do not see any reason for this to be an issue unless it is for a big player such as Baidu.
According to one of the posts that I have come across, Opera has disabled or removed this functionality due to safety concerns. Please keep this in mind, since it seems unlikely for this to change anytime soon.

I disagree and that's why I no longer use Opera as I have switched back to a Chromium based browser which allows me to use Ixquick as my search engine. If you are looking for safety you would eliminate Google as a search engine choice. Duck Duck Go is a horrible search engine. Ixquick...the best.

You can add custom search engines, you just can't set them as default one.

I understand that...but that is very inconvenient which is one of the reasons I have switched to another chromium-based browser which allows me to customize my browser in the manner in which I am accustomed.

Thanks for the non-ignorant responses. Anyway, I switched back to another chromium-based browser.

I do not like having to keep Google and other search engines in my browser settings if I am not using them. I use IxQuick and that is not even a built-in option for Opera. So, I think it would be great if the user could actually customize the search engine properly.

Opera can import bookmarks from an html file, so why isn't there the availability to export it as well?

Your system and version of Opera?
Making posts like the above won't make any good. This is a tech forum, thus tech info is like a must here, o'k?

Hmm...I did file a bug report as well as respond on similar threads. I know all about tech forums. Also, I am sure Opera is getting plenty of crash reports as looking in the forums you will see a number of threads regarding this issue. My system is Windows 10 64-bit. So, if you could actually look at the reports that are supposed to be generated and uploaded to Opera servers the numerous times this happens daily, that would be great.

I can't believe that someone would actually say that one person is having the problem. NO. I filed a bug report but nothing appears to have been done. Also, supposedly the crash reports are being sent to Opera automatically if the box is checked in the settings...so is anyone actually doing anything with that information?

It is very frustrating not only for me but other users.

I am so tired of this crashing and the developers don't seem to care enough to fix it. There is something wrong that needs to be fixed. It crashes randomly. There is no rhyme or reason to it and if it isn't fixed soon I will have no choice but to switch to a different browser that is more reliable. This is very disappointing to me as I had used Opera years ago, went back to Mozilla browsers and then Chromium browser and then returned to Opera which worked well until the last "update." Again, very disappointing.

Yes, the constant crashing is very annoying. I have Windows 10 64-bit too. Has anyone reported this bug in the wizard? I know many people are experiencing it based on another older thread on this forum. Do the developers actually read these threads?!

I am also thinking of switching back to Chromium.

Crashing for me too. I don't have the tab sorting extension mentioned above and I think it coincided with the last Windows 10 update. Please fix this.

Given that Win10 updates keep falling off the turnip cart about once a week lately, it might help to specify an update date and/or KB numbers rather than the general term "last Windows 10 update", going forward. There have been at least two other update rounds since the big batch of Win10 updates that perhaps triggered the OP's problems.

Hardly. Also, whether or not that actually happens, developers should be testing on all platforms. That's just good development protocol. Test on all sites and all major O/Ss.

Is anyone addressing this issue? This morning when I opened up the browser it crashed immediately. I had no Flash pages open although it did crash yesterday when I was playing a Flash game. I have the latest PPAPI. It's not Flash apparently because it happens when no Flash pages are open. Now it's happening all the time and it really needs to be addressed since it is not a minor issue. I really don't want to have to return to Chromium. PLEASE fix this bug.

Thanks for the response. I figured it out...my mail notifier extension was misconfigured. Thanks again.

My Hotmail webmail worked great until this last Opera version. Now it only will let you look at one or two emails and then it's just dead in the water. Since this is my main email service I won't be able to use Opera if this is not fixed quickly. Around 10 years ago Opera wouldn't work right with Hotmail and so I abandoned Opera. I hope I don't need to do this again.
