I like Sierra and will upgrade to High Sierra when I get some time. I run it on a 2011 MacBook Pro and an iMac 2013, works very well.

FWIW I always test a new OS on an external USB drive first before installing on my main hard drive.

Opera is not Safari. It is a totally different browser, made by a company in Norway.

Safari should be in your applications folder. The El Crapitan installer would have installed it there.

I did some research on the latest version of Quicken not long ago and it is supposed to open old files. Contact tech support.
