You can't delete any of the built-in search engines, sorry. Search engines you add yourself can be deleted.

He already said that Leo - the other person is standing right there and scans your screen with his/her phone. Or you scan it with your own phone, so you can transfer the site without Sync or Link.

If you make sure you use Menu > Exit (or Ctrl-Shift-X) then Opera will remember everything itself. If you close each window separately with the X in the corner, then only the last one is remembered.

As with desktop versions, the VPN is only available in countries that allow it.

China does not allow Opera's VPN, so you will not be able to enable it there.

If you wish, you can disable the feature in Settings > Advanced > Privacy & Security under Autofill > Addresses and more..

I gather they aren't worried about Americans with ad-blockers, as the article loads fine here. If the blocked content count keeps rising then they have some sort of script which is loading the ads and checking to see if they loaded - then tries again if it failed.

You need to install the Chromium codecs package for you system to play most videos. I don't use Mint and thus don't know the precise name.

You have the VPN turned on, a number of sites see you're using the VPN and just assume you are in the Ukraine.

Turn it off in Quick setup or in Settings.

Opera for Linux doesn't include proprietary codecs - they may be detecting that. What version of Linux? Many versions of Linux will have a package available for Chromium codecs - see if you can find this package for the version of Chromium that your version of Opera is based on.

Other problem is how much content that would be. Google itself might do that - they already support cloud storage which would support large images. Best Opera could do would be thumbnails.

No error message? If it "just disappears" usually that's something related to CSS (cascading style sheets, web files that tell it how to display menus and such); if there is an error message you should tell us what it says.

It should only need to ask once per session. That is to say, I use both Opera and Vivaldi, between them I only get asked once (by whichever runs first) until I log out of my desktop. If I close Opera and do something else for a while then go back to Opera it doesn't ask me then either (unless I logged out of the desktop)..

Now, if it asks but you somehow lose the dialog (behind another window, or close it by accident or some such) then Opera won't know any passwords ... but it also won't lose them. If you close Opera then try again all the old passwords will still be there, as it couldn't save them because you weren't logged in to the password manager.

I presume there must be a way to reset the password manager, but I'm also sure you'd know if you had..

Sounds like the folder set as your default download directory doesn't exist. Go to Settings > Advanced > Browser and look for the Downloads section, make sure it is set to a path that exists and you are allowed to write (save) files to it.

As I said first, the obvious answer is to do the same thing you just finished doing, but make sure you recreate the accounts in the right order.

You mean, besides doing it all again and being careful to recreate the accounts in the right order? I could reorder the sidebar, but the dropdown is a different matter.

No. Opera's VPN is blocked in China.
