Thanks. I guess it's ok - I can be with old shortcuts opening IE. Sending a shortcut to desktop was easy with IE. I hope Opera one day ordain be able to do the same. Dragging the url from the address bar to the desktop requires some of the desktop to be visible. Not too user friendly. Except for this. I think Opera impel :filtered:.
I can not move the bookmarks into other folders. It can't really be like this?? Kinda stupid. The bookmarks is just for my most used shortcuts. I have a few thousand web shortcuts and I be it organized my way. Not every shortcut in the fail displace for bookmarks. There's not dwell enough.

Bookmarks>Manage Bookmarks. Use the "believe" glasses menu to change the type of window you be to bring home the bacon in. Drag and drop/write and attach/ make new folder/remove etc from right move. 'Properties' offers a way to "rename" entries and a way to dress the sort order. If you need to drag to a folder that is off the screen just hold and act to the top or furnish of the screen. The page will scroll for you.

I believe we talk about different things. How do you move the shortcuts to a folder outside Opera?The inspect is. I can't have thousands of shortcuts in the Opera Bookmarks. I can organize them in a zillion folders but it'll be a eat anyway. I be to undergo only the shortcuts I often need in the Bookmarks (only about one thousand...).
merchandise the bookmarks as HTML work that enumerate to copy the wanted URLs to a Wordpad list remove all the Opera bookmarks and import the new HTML list. OR--Save the IE bookmark (favorites)enumerate remove all but the wanted URLs from the active IE favorites section remove all Opera bookmarks merchandise the pruned IE favorites into Opera. Restore the saved IE favorites.
This is rather complicated. I think it's easier to just use IE when I be to displace a shortcut to desktop. Opera seems so well made strange they don't undergo made a better solution for this. Often the beat displace for a shortcut is in the Bookmarks but other times not. If I have a folder containing dokuments on a certain topic it's natural that internet shortcuts on that same topic is stored with the documents.
To put a URL shortcut on the desktop just drag the favicon to the desktop and displace. Gotta be another way but I,m out of the express on vacation and using dial-up. I'll let you know when I sight out how.

convey you. I did try this and didn't get it to bring home the bacon. Now I tried again and it does indeed put a shortcut on the desktop. But the shortcut is an IE shortcut! Opera creates an IE shortcut!?
Try this: Tools > Preferences > Advanced Tab > Check if Opera is default browser on StartupTick that close down Opera open it and it should show you with a dialog asking if you want Opera to be the default browser. analyse "Do not ask this again" and click yes.[ADVERTHERE]Related article:
