Help! Over the last week, I spent a lot of time organizing my bookmarks into folders and sub folders on Opera mini and then synced them to my Opera account--I had hundreds of bookmarks synced to my Opera account and only one phone linked to this account.
I then signed out of Opera Mini on Android and then cleared the cache under the Application Manager. I did this because it was using a huge amount of space and I needed to free up space to install other apps. From what I read on the Internet, clearing the cache would only delete the browser history and offline pages and NOT all of my folders and bookmarks! To be on the safe side, I signed out of Opera before clearing the cache. After performing this action, ALL of my bookmarks and folders were gone! I went to my Opera account on the desktop and briefly saw the number of bookmarks and folders that I had but then it was quickly reset to zero. I haven't signed back into Opera Mini on my phone.
I'm nearly in a panic and very upset that all of my bookmarks could be permanently deleted. I invested a lot of time into organizing them and was sure that they would be safe on my Opera account! Could someone give me some advice on what to do? Are they permanently gone or is there some way to still retrieve them? Should I sign back into Opera mini on my phone or would this just sync the empty bookmarks and history on my phone to my Opera account??
There really should be some kind of clear warning on the Opera account or Opera mini if clearing the cache permanently wipes your bookmarks and folders... There was no such information on Opera mini or on my Opera account.
Thank you for any advice that you might have!
