      @zalex108 Yes, you are responsible for the security of zalex108 as well I am responsible for leocg, in the same way our banks say that we are responsible for our IDs and passwords there. That text is about it, your Opera account, the one you use here in the forums or on Sync.
      The text is not about your saved passwords, that are stored locally. Also it doesn't say that improvements regarding the security of the accounts couldn't be added.

        Ok,
        Sorry,

        It seem that has been a big misunderstanding.

        @rudrick said in Problem with saved passwords:

        One can accidentally wipe all passwords by accidentally clicking passwords for deletion 😃 Perhaps there could be a two-factor enablement for passwords? 🙂

        He's talking about to protect the "delete local passwords", as I've seen the deletion don't even ask for your local password.

        Thanks.

          Same problem here. I was facing this problem in my past. But now i am using "Avast Password" addons. Just install the Avast antivirus and enable the "Password Manager" .

            Hey! The solution which worked out for me:
            install an old version of Opera and from there just save you passwords!

              I downloaded Opera 2 days ago keeping Firefox in my PC, and I am glad I did. Opera seems to be a faster browser but the lack of solutions for problems like the passwords mentioned in this page seem endless and unresolved.
              I found myself dealing with the same issue with this browser (Opera 36 for Windows 32 bit) and it is very frustrating. Although I have checked the choice "Offer to save the password" this browser does not offer that the first time I open a site that needs ID and password. Since all those type of pages are new for Opera, I was able to test and verify this problem over and over. Out of frustration, I decide to keep Firefox as my browser for password related sites and use Opera for browsing the Internet only. Better speed but not the right browser for me.

                @rumba826 Not related to the topic of this thread, and seems like you didn't really try it. Opera will ask to save the password once you have successfully logged in (that is to say, once the next page has loaded). Opera 36 doesn't have the issue this thread is about - but unfortunately there are no new updates for 32-bit Windows. The only browser I'm aware of that is still producing versions for 32-bit Windows would be Vivaldi, and that's not quite as stable as Opera yet.

                    Downgrade to O48 or Upgrade to ODev, then, export the passwords.

                        On the Opera FTP you'll find all versions.

                              OMenu > About Opera

                              • Install path - go with the Explorer -.
                              • Locate latest version folder.
                              • Rename opera_autoupdate.exe file inside it.

                              To update later, roll back the steps or use the offline installer.

                                  Ups!

                                  In your case, you have to rename the file inside O48xxxx version, since after the downgrade you'll have the 48 and the newer/broken 49.

                                      @ladyzepp You need to un-install Opera, go offline, run the offline installer, rename the auto update executable, go online again, start Opera.
