[Bindusar]

I lost my settings after upgrading. There is lots of new issues generated in this case. How do I Identify as Opera, Firefox or Internet Explorer. When I point my mouse on a link unable to see address on little yellow box. You have not specified an external helper application. Can we modify the configuration now. Message when trying to view source. I can't see Block content, in context menu. How can I change find in page highlight color. Is there a way to add Go button in address bar like the one in Internet Explorer. How do I delete typed URLs in address bar.

If you are having the character issue lies with the encoding to display the characters correctly go to View and then Encoding the Automatic selection. To get a go button on your opera browse you can do this. You have to go to the tools, appearance, buttons and then the Browser view, then you have to Drag & drop Go button in between address and search field in address bar. but this you can see a go button same like internet explorer.

Maybe you selected the multi user alternative when installing and switched to a different Windows user. If you open the Help menu in Opera and select "About Opera", note the path shown next to "Opera directory". That's where the current settings are stored. Then investigate your hard disk for files called "opera6.ini" - if you find another one besides the one in the current settings directory, that will possibly or doubtless be the one containing your old lost settings. The name of the directory where you found it in should give you a clue why it got lost.
