On the installation or upgrade versions of the browser Opera 10.01 Final

For quite a while out version of the Opera browser in the 10 series. But I could not come so you can update your Opera 9.64. But, sooner or later, there comes a moment when the need to make updates. The impetus was the message of a new version of the browser, called Opera 10.01 Final, obtained through RSS-tape news site Power Board. That is, through the publication of this site, I am following software updates. They also found and direct link to download a distribution program with the official site of the Opera. 

Well, the shock was received, and the program file download. But, before you install the new version over the old, I decided to make a backup of current settings and data existing in the viewer. Thus, at every fire.

Save, in this case, you must file with the following information:

- Bookmarks Opera, file «Opera6.adr» (in the version Opera9) or «bookmarks.adr» (in the version Opera10) - your saved favorites web pages - news feeds, file «opera-newsfeeds.opml» (in the version of Opera 9 ), and in versions of Opera 10, is the folder in the directory of e-mail program - a list of RSS-belts, you are subscribed to - contact Opera, file «contacts.adr» - saved by you, contact details for other internet users (created in the menu "Tools") - settings Opera, file «opera6.ini» (a version of Opera 9) or «operaprefs.ini» (a version of Opera 10) - keeps your browser settings (appearance, display panels and so on and etc.) - cookies, file «cookies4.dat» - Cookies store sites, and that it is read here (management is committed to the menu Tools-Advanced-Manage cookies ...). - passwords, file «wand.dat» - passwords to sites that you have stored in your browser (managed from the Tools menu, Advanced, Manage Passwords ...).

In fact, placement, and the name of these files, in versions Opera9.64 Opera10.01 been different. However, as a result, the new version over the old one was good and I did not have to do anything.

The actual determination of necessary files and folders, you can look as follows. In the top menu, click Help-About "in the resulting page, find the section" Paths ", in which both are addresses in the computer to folders Opera. Most of the files in the new version are in the directory "folder Opera: C: \ Documents and Settings \ Admin \ Application Data \ Opera \ Opera», and mail and RSS news feeds in the directory "mail folder: C: \ Documents and Settings \ Admin \ Local Settings \ Application Data \ Opera \ Opera \ mail ». In the old version of this directory: "Folder Opera: C: \ Documents and Settings \ Admin \ Application Data \ Opera \ Opera \ profile \» and the same mail folders: C: \ Documents and Settings \ Admin \ Local Settings \ Application Data \ Opera \ Opera \ mail ». Folder «C: \ Documents and Settings \ Admin \» you do not necessarily called the «Admin», although probably true.

If this folder, you will not see folders «Application Data» and «Local Settings», it means that you have disabled the display of hidden files and folders. This happens if the file or folder, through their "properties" is assigned the hidden attribute. See such files and folders are made as follows: in any folder on your computer, we click on the top menu click "Tools", then "Folder Options" - "View", in the form, looking in the window "Options" settings "Hidden files and folders" , put a click on "Show hidden files and folders" and save the settings click on the button "OK". You want appears mrzhete folder where you copy the necessary files and folders, to keep out of the system drive. After the upgrade, if you update to fail, and the settings and data erased, saved files can be moved to the working folder.

In short, you started Ivan Susanin in the impenetrable jungle of technology:). But it is only necessary to know everything to restore the files with passwords and cookies. Information about this when I had the need to examine the question, I found the relevant article of the site Luzerblog. RSS same and bookmarks are saved and restored much easier by the program.

To save a backup RCC feeds and bookmarks, click on the top menu of your browser click "File". In the menu that opens, click on "Import and Export", is there something you want to back up and export to a backup folder you created in my computer. There you can make the import of data from the saved files after the upgrade program, as well as favorite lists or import mail from other programs.

Summarize what was said. The program for viewing Internet hamlets, browser Opera 10.01 Final, as well as other browsers are gradually becoming "combine" to work on the Internet. It built many useful features: bookmarks, history of visits to internet resources, download manager, rss-reader, email program, and various widgets and so on. Of course we must be able to carry it all between the versions and restore after reinstalling the operating system. I hope this article in this matter will be helpful.

How to keep a page of the site in your computer

It would seem that such a trivial thing as the preservation of the Internet pages that can help and save bandwidth and eliminate the need to re-enter the network, to read some articles. Because really, it happens that, during walks on the network, Internet, you find an interesting article, but for some reason it does not currently viewing. Perhaps no time or postponed until later, or you want later, more thoughtful to read it. But then, not knowing the exact address, or, often, even the name of the site, losing valuable information.

But this can easily be avoided. All of the features in your hands. A page, with all its contents are already in your computer.

Having found an interesting page to do the following manipulation:
Find the top menu of your browser (the program, which browse the Web) "File" tab and click on it the left mouse button.
In the resulting submenu, locate the "Save as ..." or "Save as ..." again click on it the left mouse button.
Note: Instead of the first two steps, you can press the keyboard shortcut "Ctrl + S"
In the window that opens, select the folder in which you want to save a page, or create a new folder.
At the bottom of the window to save the File name box, type a file name or leave as is (if the name contains any characters, then it is better to remove).
Also in the "File Type" select how to save the page. Perhaps save it as a simple HTML-file without pictures, as HTML-file with images or as a Web Archive. I prefer to save as a Web archive (one file).
Click "Save"


Next to view the saved pages will have the usual way, like any document, open it. The document should open in your browser, your default in your computer to view the Internet.

This way you can save not only the usual story, but the page forums and blogs with comments, search results in search engines. But there may be problems if the site is created by Flash-technology.

We must bear in mind that this way you can save only the text and graphics of the page. If you want to save video and audio, then it needs to use other methods. If you need a picture from the page, while preserving select "HTML-file with pictures" - will be kept herself Account and create a separate folder with the images.

You can also save the page and using Download Master, specifying when creating a boot address page. But this, in my opinion, unnecessary. This program will need to use except that, when the mass conservation (here download) pages.

Finally some advice. Keep the information on thematic folders, in order to then do not look for it in your computer.
