      @bend Hi, you can use my extension instead of "Set Password..." https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/browser-lock/

        Hey @humbldump , thank you for the tip! I've tried your extension and it's pretty good indeed, but I gotta be honest with yuo and say that I prefer "Set password" because of its simplicity and speed. It's just a small window that appears quick, while in your extension, the password window takes a little bit longer to appear and load, and also closes Opera main window, having to open and load it again once the password is typed...
        Please, don't take this as a bad review, you've done a great job! I'm just explaining why I'd prefer using Set password extension...

          @bend Hi,

          For changing password I suggest you uninstall and reinstall the extension and set a new password

          Thanks for using my extension

            @eswaryaga thanks for answering! That's ok, I don't mind doing that to change my password. But what about masking the password while typing it? That's important, I think... Is that a feature you'd be working on? Great job on the extension by the way!

              @humbldump: Hi, I wrote you in the other thread (which that of your opera's
              application) seem to me there is a problem. From the password request window, in the upper right corner, we can remove the extension and then access Opera easily.
              Please, look at the pictures:

                  Doesn't work, all you have to do is click cancel and it bypasses the password. Totally useless.

                    Hello!

                    I've been using your extension and so far it was working really well !
                    However, its not working normal with the new update. You click any place on opera and it bypasses the password .
                    Update please.

                      It doesn't work. If I ignore the pop up message asking for the password, just clicking on the main window, I can use the browser and access to all information... Useless

                            @eswaryaga I use it in Windows 10 Pro.. It doesn't work... Try to click on the browser instead the password window, ignoring to click on cancel, and you'll be able to use the browser with no lock

                              Same for me here, win 10 pro, with latest version of Opera.
                              "cancel" closes the browser
                              click anywhere and your can surf the web!

                                I also tried on windows 10 , on new opera version.. Don't see this issue.

                                Can you try reinstalling the extension

                                Sorry for the trouble

                                  Hi, I just tried but it still doesn't work.
                                  If we ignore the password popup we can use Opera (Version :74.0.3911.232).

                                      This no longer works with the latest Opera update. Using Windows 10 Home Version 20H2. You can just ignore the popup. It still works if you don't get password right, but you can just ignore it and click on the browser and use it.

                                        I discovered a vulnerability in the add-on. If the opera is opened on the second display, the window ignores the password.

                                          I'd rather say that it ignores it whatsoever !
                                          If you read previous messages, you'll see that since latest opera updates, it plugin doesn't work anymore.

                                            Which makes me write this message ...
                                            In opera plugin list, there's another locker which works fine.
                                            Though it is much heavier than this one and if your pc isn't fast, you'll have to wait for the browser to open...

                                            I didn't want to change, but as long as this issue is not solved, as per the * in place of characters, i'll go with the other one.
