@leocg Where is it possible in Opera to export passwords? that other option mentioned is from outside Opera, and appears to be some sort of joke programming. No GUI, only command line which is what we did back in 1980.

In passwords manager at Opera's settings page there's an option to export passwords. You need to click on the three dots on the right.

There are no 3 dots on the right with version 36.

@johnbull44 36 doesn't support it. You need a modern version like the current Opera 56 and you need to enable the flag opera://flags/#PasswordExport.

https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/web_browser_password.html works with Opera 36. In options, set "Opera login file" to the "Login Data" file that's in your Opera 36 profile and you're good to go. You can ctrl + s to save. It's a GUI program and easy to use. While it is 3rd-party, Nirsoft is trusted.

Oh, 36. There's no such option in Opera 36.

I have used WebBrowserPassvView and it produces a list of all my passwords, which I have saved on my Flash Drive. It results in a copy of all my passwords but a laborious manual reference. What I need is the routine autofill by the browser.

@johnbull44 I use LastPass for that. But, I'm not sure if the extension works in Opera 36. When using LastPass, you turn off "offer to save passwords" in opera://settings/passwords as LastPass will be handling things instead.

If Opera is allowed to save passwords as well as LastPass, will it work OK ?
