@leocg yes - I think I solved the problem - thank you

@leocg thank you - I think by some dumb luck -- and I do mean dumb -- that I fixed the problem.

@leocg no, it says "change wallpaper" and "get more wallpaper." when I clicked on "change" I didn't see anything about Fullscreen. And there's no way for me to exit Opera - I have to completely re-boot my laptop and start all over

@ljfried It reads

Show Speed Dial suggestions

and is in the Start page section. Just flip it off.

Seems this is a common problem when an update or installation fails to complete successfully. I searched various sites and forums and found that others tried removing all traces of Opera (including associated hidden folders and registry keys) from their computers with about 50% success. Others renamed various Opera folders or installation/upgrade files with some success.
There've been so many problem with Opera compared to other browsers I've used that I'll just use Brave for now and see if I can resolve the problem later when I have more time to investigate and 'test'. My other devices w/Opera installed still show the sync'd speed dials and bookmarks from my computer install. It's just the Windows version that's a repeating problem.

@gregraygun When you enable VPN in settings page, there is a warning about speed.

@burnout426 thank you very much for this - didn't know it was called taskbar

@dotbox I had just copied the web address wrong

It worked!! Thank you VERY much. I told you I was a Luddite.

@sgunhouse thanks to all -- I "think" I may have figured it out

@ljfried Sync: Menu > Synchronize

Backup I understand that you already do. At least I suppose that Carbonite is a backup tool.

Regarding the bookmarks export, jus to to the page (opera://bookmarks) and use the tool in the bottom left.

@burnout426 oky got it sir thanks for your response

thank you very much for this

I'm not quite following you here - not appearing in the Bookmarks bar, in the bookmarks manager, or maybe somewhere else?

@ljfried Forget my 1st post...

Does that message appear on all browsers? Or only the Opera Browser ?..

@ljfried You may need to ask the site. I don't see how Opera is related to what that site does.

By the way, Opera has a pop-up blocker.

@ljfried I have also problems with opening Google websites. I try to use it at adwords.google.pl but somethimes it wont work. Really I don't know why. Any other sites works perfect such as my company site: becpak.eu

No, not new at all. I've been using Opera for several years. Thank you.
