Sandor Posted June 18, 2005 Share Posted June 18, 2005 firstly, sorry if its been asked before... is there a way to modify the "g search" in the address bar so that the results are brought from google.co.uk rather than google.com? being in the UK, i'd find the british google search more useful. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rix Posted June 18, 2005 Share Posted June 18, 2005 Either C:\Program Files\Opera\Search.ini (I think), or C:\Documents And settings\Your Username\Application Data\Opera\Search.ini, just change the google part from .com to .co.uk, apparently they've changed the way this works in the latest versions but i'm not sure tbh.

TheWahbinator Posted June 18, 2005 Share Posted June 18, 2005 Tools -> Preferences Advanced tab, under search will show all of them, but I don't think editing is possible from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uniacidz Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 (edited) C:\Program Files\Opera\profile\search.ini C:\Program Files\Opera\profile\search.ini.000 (Have to open in notepad) Change the search criteria there. Thats if you want to do it manually. Edited June 20, 2005 by Davey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
