@hantuuu Go in the "profile" folder, then the "data" folder, then the "Default" folder. Then you should see the "Bookmarks" and "BookmarksExtras" files.

thankyou. I got them, now what to do? copy those bookmark to my original opera installation folder? Because if I'm using the standalone, I can't import the bookmark to my other browser

@hantuuu In short, that Reddit link just says to download the USB/Portable version of Opera and install it to a folder on your desktop.

Thank you but it did not create bookmarks folder after installation


@burnout426 said in How do I restore old opera bookmarks?:

@hantuuu Try this way:

• Make a test standalone installation of Opera to a folder named "Opera Test" on your desktop.

• Close that Opera.

• In the profile/data/default folder in the "Opera Test" folder, replace its "Bookmarks" and "BookmarksExtras" files with copies of the copies you found in Default.old.

• In the "Opera Test" folder, double-left-click on launcher.exe to start that Opera.

• Goto the URLopera://bookmarks and confirm that your bookmarks are in there somewhere.

• Click the drop-down at the bottom left of the bookmarks page and choose to export your bookmarks to bookmarks.html.

thanks. but I can't open your link, it's blocked here. and when I'm using vpn, it just loading non stop

@burnout426 said in How do I restore old opera bookmarks?:

You can look in "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable" for a "Bookmarks" file and a "Bookmarks.bak" file.

You can open them in a text editor to see if it looks like your bookmarks are there. If so, copy those files to your desktop as a backup. Then, just temporarily install Opera and they should show up in Opera at the URL opera://bookmarks. You can then use the drop-down at the bottom left of that page to export your bookmarks to an HTML file that can be imported into the browser of your choice.

Thank you, I found them in "default.old"

now, how do I export them to html? I'm not sure.

from what you wrote, I only get that I will only have to reinstall opera, but I can't remember if it really ask me anything about file in desktop

@leocg said in Restore old "open new private tab" features:

@hantuuu When Chromium has it, then Opera should have it too.

Opera used to have it, but now no more. I think it's been 2 or 3 years since that feature removed

And for the rest, I can't open anything. all of your URL just redirect me to "check for update" pages.

On that update page, you can scroll down and it will show a "profile" path.

As for getting to passwords, if the URL isn't working for some reason, click the menu button at the top left of Opera, goto settings, scroll down to the "Autofill and passwords" and click "Passwords" or "Password Manager". There, as a workaround (not a solution), you can add the username and password yourself so that Opera remembers it for the next time.

thankyou. Unfortunately, even the workaround did not work as intended

I tried to go to the website I already input there, and yet it didn't remember anything, I still need to manually insert my account and password.

@burnout426 !
Thank you. I then browse to the folder you provide, but I can't find neither bookmark folder, nor bookmark files.

*there's 2 screenshoots. I wonder why the other one did not appear, but you can click the screenshoot name above.

Hi. Most addons about this is just word by words.

this got 2 major weaknesses

• First, it's too annoying to click the review suggestion one by one

• Second, since it's word per word, the context often get changed instead of just grammatical correction, which result the correction is corrected again after accepted

It will be much nicer if opera has a built in spell checker that work for sentence based, and if we don't have much time, just "accept all review" then whole sentence grammar is tuned in

Hi. I can't remember which version of opera did have this features.

It's very helping features. Sometimes, we just want to browse new private tab instead of whole private windows and switching each other.

Hi. Due to some problem, I have to uninstall my opera browser. Unfortunately, I did forgot to backup my bookmarks

I tried to sync, the bookmarks still gone.

When uninstall opera, I didn't delete anything manually. Is there any posibility that opera still save my old bookmarks somewhere in my computer? How do I restore it?

Hi. I don't know what's going on. Since past weeks, often times, I can't scroll properly.

Instead of scrolling the pages just like any other app/browser, it drags my opera windows to anywhere instead. Please see screen record below

I tried to uninstall and install opera again, it still be. I try older version of opera, it still be. I'm running out of ideas by now

@burnout426 Thanks a lot.

First, that addons seems did not help to create any password. What I need is something like chrome feature, it can create a secure password as well as automatically remember that password to my account.

And for the rest, I can't open anything. all of your URL just redirect me to "check for update" pages.

Hi. My opera randomly remembering password. Sometimes it did ask me whether remember or not, the other time, it doesn't.

This is quite annoying. For some websites, like giveaway websites, I don't have any problem if my password there are remembered, or I logged in forever there, no problem

I have to manually input the website, user and password to opera. I just want an automatic one, how do I?

Or do I need some add-ons for it? If add-ons, I would prefer the one with password creator as well.
