@leocg Yes, on my 10 years old PC that is broken now.

@denistablica In opera://settings/syncSetup did you ever enable the option to encrypt all your synced data?

@leocg I guess, since there are lock icons on all synced items on that screenshot...
I think I once had to change my password but my passphrase (passcode) stayed the same... Is it possible to recover my original password for my account, if that is the original passphrase?

@denistablica Password and passphrase are different things. The password is the one you use to login to your Opera account and access servers like this forum, for example.

The passphrase is a password that you have set up to he used as an extra security for your synced data.

@denistablica If you have changed your Opera password recently, try the old one.
Also try your old computer password.

The concept is different but in some situations the password is the same.

Ex:
No Passphrase added but access from another device.
The Passphrase will be the same as Password despite you never added it.

This has happened many times, is what @sgunhouse has suggested all of them and I've faced myself.

So,
Try your default password, the same you've used to access online (Sync.opera.com).

If you still can access your data on old PC, you could try pasting your cookies or even dumping your passwords.

@leocg and the rest... Does it maters if my Opera "install" that I can't sync to on my new PC is "Opera portable install"?
I have recently (2-3 months) changed my Android phone and I have synced all on it. Meaning I had to use my passphrase on it to sync, right?

Thanks

@denistablica It shouldn't matter.

SOB... finally got the passphrase I used and sync is working on my new PC....
I was almost 99% I have tried it before, but 100% not, since now it works
I went systematic over all the possibilities and finally "find" right "word".

Thanks to all who tried to help me!
