Still can't install it from User account

Where is the "preferences" file stored on Windows 7 SP1 64 bit? Great work!

I believe a lot of you might know it by now, but for those of you who don't know… Vivaldi can install any add-ons from Google Chrome Web Store.
You can also manage those extensions on Vivaldi by going to vivaldi://chrome/extensions -
Nice!, I use it every day now . Please also integrate the Master Password soon

I use this browser on and off for almost a month and see some progress - for example there was a pop-up about full-screen mode at youtube that didn't go away, but now it works fine. That's great - you guys work hard! I used to take active part in Opera community until found out that any critical notes about old problems at least were ignored and at most just removed. So I terminated my account there since there is no sense to test drive if nobody cares about negative results.
But I have one question about Vivaldi. For now it's just a front-end for Blink or Chromium, one among many others. I liked Opera for its own engine - Presto in later versions. Since the lead of that project is one of co-founders of the original Opera project, is there any chance to see Presto itself or functional fork in Vivaldi eventually? Otherwise I don't see any sense to use Chromium under front-end instead of Chromium under Chrome. I already tried several different front-ends including current Opera and every time the engine developer's browser worked better. That is pretty obvious. So - is there any plans to switch for developing a full functional browser instead of a front-end for somebody's engine?
Anyway - thanks for your work - in any case it will fit somebody's needs even in that limited by borrowed engine features.

I think, you can try to use a hack - just relocate bookmarks from Chromium browser you use - they are under User Data - Default in the file "Bookmarks". I didn't try it under current Opera, but it worked fine with original Chrome. At least Vivaldi has that file in the similar location.

Strange - I tried to reply for one of the comments above and twice it didn't work.
It's about bookmark relocating to Vivaldi. Just a thought - I tried it under original Chrome and see similar file structure in Vivaldi's directory, so it can work here as well.

Based upon the interviews I have read with the Vivaldi CEO Jon von Tetzchner, the answer to your question is no.

Everyone probably already knows all this but here is a link that has a LOT of US information on HTTP2 that I think most would be happy to listen to!
Jon maybe even, I guess chrome includes speedy which is googles name BEFORE the release of HTTP2. This is really technical that is done by an ASSEMBLER programmer I've listened to for years.

That is in the last 1/3 of podcast link. A plus is a deconstruction of the stuxnet virus that Kaspersky found of changing firmware of drive controller and how powerful it is.
I can understand most of it and gets rather technical but still basic enough for dummies as myself. Just thought everyone would want to understand http2 implementation that I am sure this excellent browser will have, may even give some ideas.
