      @daz7146 My hometown calls itself "Flag City, USA" and in the old forums that was what I listed as my location. One of the other users found or made (probably found) an animated flag GIF and sent it to me. Unfortunately the new forums don't support animation.

      @popiomondayz Sorry, that's the only known option for removing devices.

                @popiomondayz How many installations you have done and enabled sync on it, how many entries you will see there.

                Check if you can see them in Other Speed Dials. If so, then maybe you can remove them.

                  i think i said it before but there is only one copy of each device there {inside "other speed dials"}

                  also i did it with my phone at least 5 times and on my pc twice

                    @popiomondayz Then the answer is that you can't remove them. At least not without resetting your synced data.

                        @popiomondayz Go to https://www.sync.opera.com/ and use the option to reset your passphrase.

                        It will remove your synced data from the servers.
                        Just as a precaution, I would advise to logoff from sync before doing that.

                                @popiomondayz Do you still see the opened tabs from the old devices at https://www.sync.opera.com/?

                                    @popiomondayz If you don't see them on sync.opera.com, it's because they aren't being synced anymore.

                                    Not sure why you still see them on the tabs page. Maybe it's not being synced.

                                      wait you're right!
                                      it's not actually syncing properly with my phone!
                                      and the tabs page works correctly on the phone!

                                        @popiomondayz but still...
                                        How would I actually make it sync?

                                          note: i switched back to opera gx because most of the problems I had with it are now solved
                                          well, not including this one
                                          it was not fixed, and i am now even more confused than before

                                            answer found!
                                            note:you would lose your settigns but dont worry because theyre saved to your acc (account)

                                            ok so first you close opera/opera gx
                                            then you press windows+R then type "%appdata%"
                                            (without the quotes ofcourse) and then press enter

                                            you then go to the "local" file and you search for the "opera software" folder then you delete it whole

                                            you then go back to the "appdata" file and go to the "roaming" file and do the exact same thing

                                            now make sure you did not open opera/opera-GX

                                            and go to your opera/opera-GX setup file
                                            you run it and turn on all checkboxes
                                            you then click uninstall
                                            after you do that you should open the exact same setup file and redownload your browser

                                            you should then open that browser and sign in
                                            and boom!
                                            problem solved!
