OK, I uninstalled Bit Defender and installed Avira and all my Opera problems are gone! Ha!

@ esteni - I myself have v12 installed already, but I assume that it would have major security issues. No?

In mean that in Windows Explorer you have the option of viewing many element of the files and folders or not. I believe BD changed mine because I am sure that WE wasn't set to Hide System Files etc.

Oh, I forgot to mention, I'm running Comodo Firewall as well for a year, without issue.

OK I'm beginning to think its Bitdefender. I noticed that it changed my folder settings to 'hide' various file types, something I always unhide. The timing would be right as well.

@ riordan - I tried v30 after wiping everything and it didn't work for me. Good luck! THE next thing I'm going to try is to go back to MS Security Essential anti virus to see if Bit Defender AV screwed something up. May I ask what anti virus you are running?

@ hiteckee - may I ask what anti virus you are running?

thanks found them.

I just uninstalled 31 and downloaded and installed Opera 30 after deleting all the references to Opera 31 in App/Data and the install folder, but the same problem. Seems like e conflict with windows7. BTW I still have Opera 12 installed and it works.

thanks but when I say nothing works in Opera I mean NOTHING. I cant even open a page to save it anymore. But my 'download folder' is my Desktop, not that cluttered.

THanks VUX but I've said above that "when I say nothing works in Opera I mean NOTHING". As I've also said above I have reinstalled already. So I can't try extensions either.

ANd yes I have checked the Opera Software folder for anything useful.

Can no one tell me where the bookmarks are located in Windows Explorer?

BTW there is no access to "About Opera" on my broken install

I believe you are mistaken altho I thank you for responding. I have no file or folder on my win7 machine by that name, nor in either AppData\Local\Opera or AppData\Roaming\Opera. Nor a single file named Bookmarks.

Windows 7 I reinstalled and Opera is still totally broken. I can't use any aspect of it like exporting). Can someone tell me how to get my bookmarks from it? Its no longer in an ADR file that I can find.

I didn't have a problem since going back to Opera several months ago. But I started having problems saving web pages a week ago and now the damn thing cant do ANYTHING! Totally dead.

Uninstalled and reinstalled, turned off anti virus and the same problem. Win7 Using only 34% of physical memory. Goodbye Opera!

Its not RAM and its not PF its Opera. If I reinstall and it doesn't fix it as someone has said, it time to say goodbye to good ole Opera.
