I can confirm this bug as well. Happening for a few months already. Didn't reported myself.

For me, I just reimport over a prepared file with passwords after each buggy Opera autoupdate.

Has anyone reported this bug into Opera bugtracker or not?

I'm so sorry for you
Also have been in such a situation.

You can take a look at this topic, with the same problem reported, maybe you find there something usefull -https://forums.opera.com/topic/51905/constant-updates-causing-passwords-lost/

And, if is the case, you can export passwords from Chrome and Vivaldi and to import them into Opera.

@sharyn Are you using Opera Sync?

Using the English version of Windows 10?

@donq It might be possible that something in the updater doesn't handle Пользователи in one or more of:

"C:\Пользователи\muRmot\AppData\Local\temp"
"C:\Пользователи\muRmot\AppData\Local\Programs\Opera"
"C:\Пользователи\muRmot\AppData\Opera Software\Opera Stable"

well on Windows 7.

But, another user with this problem is using Windows 10 and seems to be using English Windows.

This is definitely a strange issue though as the updater should only be updating the program files and not really messing with the profile files.

Opera's update task in the Windows Task Scheduler runs as your user and only when logged in if you're using a current-user install. Doesn't seem like that'd cause any access issues with access of the profile file or Opera running as a difference user for a sec during the update. For all-user installs, the task run whether you're logged in or not and as the SYSTEM user. There could be a bug there with the updater. But, I'm doubt that as muRmot is using a current-user install.

Because I don't trust Opera Sync, I'd blame it for this bug if a user is using it and is syncing passwords and or settings. It remains to be seen whether users here are using Opera Sync or not though. It'd still be weird for Opera Sync to booger something up on a version change though.
