      I used to be able to use my MSN password to access my password list.
      I would like to keep it that way. Now the interface asks for a username
      and password. Used every password and user name I wrote down
      including my Opera sign in...NOTHING WORKS!!! What have you done?!!馃槥

        Asks for your computer username and password, not a website password. Mind you, there are a lot of reports that it doesn't work for people (though it does for me, so try it).

            It doesn't work...I am effectively locked out of seeing my
            own passwords. Don't have that issue with Chrome, but
            I seldom use that browser. Current ones I use are locked
            up on Opera...Things start getting worse with this one
            with every one of its updates, might be safer to switch
            browsers.

              Same here. I've effectively been locked out of all my passwords! Am not happy. Nothing works, not the computer password not browser, nothing. I hope they sort this or I will not be using Opera anytime in the future.

                Same too here 馃槙
                I tried every name/pass/login in any order, nothing seems to work... Please, debug this, it's a pain when you have crazy complex passwords to remember

                  Same problem here. The Windows Hello (fingerprint) and PIN options don't work either, both giving the error "The data area passed to a system call is too small".

                    Try downgrading to O48 and rename the autoupdate.
