Hello donq - YES !! - you've nailed it.
Works fine using full view - never thought to try that !
Became very brave regarding folder selection and investigated how to do it with total success - now very happy with the system.
Very much appreciate your patience and help.

How do I set up the Opera shortcut to start with ?
I still can't figure out how to do this "show-component extension-options" thing which you recommend.
I am not very computer literate - please can you talk me through the process in 'primary school' language right from the beginning ?

Roy

Hello again donq.
I decided, eventually, not to go with your suggestion after all but to stick with the 'Opera' way of doing things.
One further question, though, if I may .
At the moment I have a list of my imported bookmarks in folders in the bookmarks manager and when I now bookmark a new site in Opera it shows as a new entry in a list above the folders.
Is there a way to move the new bookmarks into an appropriate folder in the existing imported list? (eg. bookmark for this forum into the'Forums' folder)

As a workaround you can drag shortcuts for your newly bookmarked web pages into old bookmarks folder.
Sorry, Donq, I am not very computer-literate. How exactly would I do what you suggest?
Thanks for the reply,

I don't understand why you would have bookmarks from a browser on your taskbar...
Only so I can go directly to first-wanted site from desktop without opening browser.
I suppose it is laziness to save one click, but I've just got into the habit of doing it !!
Thanks for your reply.

Good Morning All
I am a new Opera user and first-time poster on this forum.
I have previously used Internet Explorer and widely used the Bookmark/Favorites system - in the process producing a large list of links which are in both a folder tree and also "freestanding".
I have a shortcut to the favorites folder on my desktop and am able to open any link in Opera by clicking.
I have now found,however, that when I bookmark a new site direct from the Opera window that it is only saved in the browser and does not appear in my shortcut on the taskbar or even in the 'favorites' folder in File Explorer.
Is there any way in Opera that I can get my new bookmarks to appear in my tasbar shortcut?
My OS is Windows 10 Home 1909 on a desktop PC.
Hope you can help me.
Regards
Roy
