WHY??? Was there something wrong with the way it was???? This is not an acceptable change. Not at all. You know.... "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". Seriously, this is crazy having to do an extra step to see your favorites list. Sorry for the rant but dang it, this is just plain wrong.

RE: [Solved]Re: [Solved]"Continue Shopping" How do Get Rid of this annoyanceOpera for Windows
@leocg Well thanks to burnout426 posting the link to the update page, I finally found the X which was on the opposite side of the page. Being that I was removing the icons one at a time, I never saw the X on the right side of the page. I'm glad this is resolved. Thanks for the help.

Browser freezing up at times...Opera for Windows
My Opera browser goes unresponsive if I leave my PC for a few minutes without any activity. When I come back, the page is still there but none of the links or buttons are responsive unless I reload the page or end up having to restart the browser entirely. What is up with that?

RE: Can Lucid Mode be turned on without having the Lucid Mode On icon on videos?Opera for Windows
@passenger-chi, Yes, I did notice that too. I also noticed that the Lucid Mode creates artifacts such as light pixels on some videos too. I honestly do not see the use for Lucid Mode myself and there should be a way to turn it completely off if desired to do so.

Is there a way to backup Opera completely?Opera for Windows
I need to do a clean install of my Windows 10 and I would like to know if there is a way to back up the entire browser and all of my bookmarks and settings all in one package. I just want to be able to reinstall it after I'm done with the clean Win 10 installation as easy as possible and to get back online as fast as possible. Thanks.

I need help with FVD Speed DialOpera add-ons
I installed FVD Speed Dial and I cannot find a way to make it the default browser window. I have Opera as default but when I start the browser I get the the normal Opera browser and not the FVD Speed Dial browser. Also, I would like to know how to use the animated backgrounds in the FVD Speed Dial browser as well. Can either or both on these options be activated? Thanks.

RE: New to Opera and I need help... please.Opera for Windows
Thanks again. I couldn't see the forest for the trees. I finally figured out that I needed to do a restore down to the browser to see the desktop so I could drop that icon on it. I'm just used to doing a right click to add a shortcut to the desktop as I did in IE11.

RE: Cannot access password management settingsOpera for Windows
Found out I could use my PIN number to access the password manager's edit functions. So all is well now. Thanks again.

RE: Cannot access password management settingsOpera for Windows
@leocg Thanks for the information. I am trying to change a password and since I did not know which login and password I needed, I could not access the website I wanted to modify. Now I have to figure out what my OS login credentials are. I have no idea what they are at this time. Thanks again and Happy New Year!

Cannot access password management settingsOpera for Windows
I cannot access password management settings to change a password. I get an error message stating that I either entered the wrong login name or password. This makes me unsure of whether I have to use a different password other than the one I have saved for my Opera browser or if I need to use another combination designated for something else. What am I doing wrong?

RE: The adblocker is not working topic (Opera for Desktops)Opera for computers

I'll give Opera 3 days to fix this otherwise I'll be looking for a new trustworthy browser.
Add uBlock Origin to your Opera browser and there will be no more ads on YT and other web sites as well. Just Google it and add it to your Opera browser. It is easy to do and it works great!

@leocg Then its back to skipping ads again I guess. It was nice while it lasted.

RE: The adblocker is not working topic (Opera for Desktops)Opera for computers
So now I have the all new and modernized Opera browser which I am not crazy about. I don't know if the updated look has anything to do with it but right after the update, the Ad Blocker is not working on YouTube anymore. Is this due to the update or did YouTube find a workaround for ad blockers?

RE: Can;t edit/delete Speed DialsOpera for Windows
@leocg Hi again. About the Google search bar, I was wrong in that I could not use it to do a search. What I cannot do is copy something and paste it to the search bar. I am glad that I had the Google search page as a speed dial as I can paste text there. Any ideas on that issue?
