Is exporting the wand data possible so it can be carried from one to anohter pc ?

Well sorry for this weird threadtitle, but basiclly I'm asking because sometimes my PC just out of nowhere decides to erase windows and stuff, luckily it doesn't happen often.

Anyways, I found out that there is a wand.dat, but I'm not sure if this is the data I'm looking for.

Any Ideas ?

Thanks in advance

(BTW: is there anyway to change the usernam ? I'm stuck with the weird one and I'd like to change it xD )

Tamil you're a hero.
Your blog's fantastic. - Well, I knew it before but I've never came across that wand stuff so far. Just right today I was in need for it. Excellent. Thanks.

just one more question:
why does Opera not support export/import function for that?
I mean I just remember how often I've had to do thas so far! too often I was typing in wand-data just because I didn't know that export/import is doable, at all.

I know how to copy things and I know how the find a profile-folder and all that stuff but 97% of the people I know don't. .... O.K.--> wishlist and hoping.

May be due to security reasons.

a simple built in copy-command? - security issue? - hard to believe, isn't it?

It would be nice to include the Wand in the Opera Link so that it can synchronise automatically. Does anyone know if there exist such plans?
