Please try a clean-install of Opera 11.51.

1. Un-install Opera. In the Opera un-install wizard, select the option named 'Delete my Opera user data' and click the un-install button.
2. Download Opera from http://www.opera.com/browser/download/ and install it.

If this doesn't work report back.

Just copy the bookmarks *.adr file or use the backup utility in my sig to backup everything.

Try deleting operaprefs.ini first to see if that fixes the problem. Help About Opera to find your profile directory.

From your computer. Go to Add/Remove Programs or Programs and Features in Windows Control Panel. Click the un-install button for Opera. Now an application window appears with option to Uninstall Opera. In that window there will be an option - 'Delete my Opera user data'

Sorry I did not think you had bookmarks. Follow Pesala's advice to backup what you need.
