Backup your Opera browser settings with OperaFly

OperaFly

There are at least three good utilities for backing up your Firefox profiles, passwords, and settings. Which is all fine and good if you use Firefox. But if Opera is your web browser of choice, you're going to need a different tool. And that tool is called OperaFly.

OperaFly is an incredibly powerful and easy to use Windows utility for backing up Opera preferences. You can either install OperaFly to your PC or just unzip the no-install version and click the OperaFly.exe icon. The program will try to detect your Opera installation directory, and then you can select which aspects of your profile you want to backup. Want to save your bookmarks, but not your cookies? No problem.

Your settings will be saved in an FLY file, which you can then use to restore your settings. OperaFly could be a lifesaver if you're setting up a new computer or doing a clean install of Windows on your own system. Or you can make backups on a regular basis so that you won't lose your preferences in the event of a catostrophic PC issue.
