Is there a way to install Opera with my prefered/current settings?

EDIT:

I just read my About Opera page.

Paths

Preferences - C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Opera\Opera\profile\opera6.ini

Saved windows - C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Opera\Opera\profile\opera.win

Bookmarks - C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Opera\Opera\profile\opera6.adr

So I copy opera6.ini and oper6.adr to C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$Docs\All Users\Applications Data\Opera\Opera\profile, right? Is there a way ti save my skin too?

Yes, I have Opera tweaked to be pre-configured and squeaky clean, right from the first run. If you have any more questions, post in the current topic after checking out the thread linked to below:

many tweaks

Go there to see more details about Opera pre-config, and a few notes about it:

That attachment for opera pre-config which I have there (winrar SFX), is for Opera7 - easily ported to Opera7.5, once you get the hang of it. Once you see it, you'll see how to pre-set a skin as well.

I don't know about the "All User" path. What I did is put the ini inside Opera directory so new profiles will be based on this.

Modify the opera6.ini to reflect your default setting, then place it into the %ProgramFiles%\Opera directory (overwrite the other one) before you run Opera for the first time.,..

I do all my config ops to opera, during T-12 - all manipulations are done to the "default user" profile - so any new user inherits the pre-sets.

Default User = All Users ??? :)

Maybe I didn't explain clearly. :)

Basically, Opera can't/won't take settings from the %AllUsersProfile% folder.

It only takes from "%appdata%\Opera" which translates to "%UserProfile%\Application Data\Opera".

So, considering that whatever you put in "Default User" folder will get propagated to all new users created later, I execute an SFX at T-12 which extracts itself to %UserProfile% (at the time of T-12, it is "Default User" who's logged on).

So now, those settings are inherited by all profiles, and that too - leaving the original files in "%ProgramFiles%\Opera75" folder intact. So if you now want to reset your Opera's settings, all you need to do, is to delete "%appdata%\Opera" of whichever user is logged-on. Now its more clear? :rolleyes:

90% :)

Take a look at the screenshot - is this the way to set the General settings? My SFX contains the files under their corresponding dirs.

I didn't see the way for the skin? Mine is downloaded from Opera's site => it's not included in the official install package.

Yes, that screenshot seems fine.

Just set your batch-file to copy the skin from CD to "%ProgramFiles%\Opera75\Skin" after install of Opera. Set the preferences to load the skin you want. And you are ready with the skin already customised. :)

My standard_toolbar (1).ini seems to be my current one. But it is located in C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Opera\Opera\profile\toolbar (not Opera7\).
Right. Which is exactly why we copy out the Opera folder to the SFX, and extract to "%UserProfile%\Application Data\" silently during cmdlines stage.
What is Opera's default install dir with silent install?
It goes into "%ProgramFiles%\Opera75", by default.

More details can be obtained from the opera news-groups (the help on their website describes how to access it). They have very good forums too!

If you have very detailed needs on pre-configured versions of opera, go here - customize

I just can't download the skin. It won't download but install. And it's not located in my Opera\Skin folder... :rolleyes:

EDIT: Found it... :)

I just checked Opera's customization site and realy like the splash screen part. Is there a way to do a splash screen with my original install?

P.S. prathapml, thank you once again for all the F1 :)
