@rexneb: It is true it is a small bug, it happened to me too. But it is sufficient to disable in the options: "Warn before closing Opera with multiple tabs open" and it works fine.

@maxzanna: On current version we have to disable - "Warn on quitting Opera with multiple tabs opened".

Good, just missing the "stars" hidding for caracters when tiping the password. Everybody can read over your shoulder

Not Secure, at the very least password should be masked

@rexneb: I'm probably the only person that uses GX, and i can assure you, you definitely can bypass the password.

@bienfp If you launch Opera with 2 tabs or more : click "cancel" it will ask if you are sure to quit because of the other opened tabs : click cancel : bypass password

If you launch only one tab, right click on Opera icon, open new tab, do the same as above : bypass password.

@rexneb I tried it this morning, I have portable opera version 66.0.3515.72, with opera lock version 5 extension. 1, 2, 3 tabs don't change anything, when I hit cancel, everything is shut down.
So far, appart from the ***** password issue, I didn't find how to go around this extension.

@rosek97 I'm afraid it's not possible. At least I haven't found a way.

@rexneb Yes, but as we have already said in order to work this extension needs that the option in opera browser: "Warn on quitting Opera with multiple tabs open" must be disabled.

@sutskn You need to remove and install the opera extension again. A little rough method but it is simple and the only one that I know of.

@sutskn,
I'm not sure you can uninstall an extension without passing this password problem of yours.
I would uninstall Opera Browser completely. However, windows often leaves behind some files that may be a problem as they might refer to this password extension.
What I do, and may be done with another software, is use the function "uninstaller" of "iobit toolbox". It a freeware, and after uninstalling Opera, it will offer to scan for remaining files and give you the choice to remove them all.
When this is done, you can easily install Opera again.
