Passwords not being saved

Hi, a couple of days ago I installed the brand new Opera GX, everything was perfect for the first hour until I closed the browser and logged in again. Passwords were not being saved. I checked the settings and everything seemed to be fine, I only noticed that there was an option selected, which never asked me if I wanted to do it by the way, that the browser asked me to save the passwords, obviously I left it as it was, enabled, and I started to log in again in the pages where I am registered. ... and surprise, I had to enter them all again... so I checked if I had enabled delete history and cookies on closing... obviously, I had not enabled it.... I tried saving the passwords manually, which was a lot of work, and thought, now it will work..... my surprise was that it didn't work.... so I thought, maybe it's the VPN. I disabled it. It was still the same... I uninstalled the program, re-downloaded it, re-installed it, checked in detail that in the configuration there was the option to ask if I wanted to save the password, which it never did, I repeat.... I checked that there was an option to log in automatically in the pages where I am registered, I checked that there was no option to delete history and cookies when closing the browser, I deactivated the VPN and I set out again to save the passwords manually, one by one.... I closed and logged in again.

@antonamat So you go to a page (this forum, for example), say yes when asked if you want to save your password for that site, close Opera and when you go to the passwords manager (opera://settings/passwords), the password is not listed as saved?

@leocg the same happens to me, but he doesn't even ask if he can save or not. Despite being enabled saving and also the question, nothing happens.

No password, no login is saved, even if I try to put it manually, it doesn't save.

@marillo Not all sites allow to save passwords.

@leocg I understand, but I used the browser before I formatted/restarted my mac, all the sites that used to be saved, now aren't. not saving any

On my windows notebook, it works perfectly.

@marillo Did you allow access to keychan (or something like that)?

@leocg hmmm... the window to allow access to "Opera Safe Storage" still hasn't appeared, good reminder! This option never appeared.

Is there another way, besides the popup window that opens, to give this permission? In the settings?

@marillo Not a Mac user myself, so no idea how it works.

@marillo They did not respond to me. Now I switched to Yandex, similar Dashboard and it works great.

@leocg Browser don’t ask me for save anytime. I save by hand, don’t work too.

@leocg I worked with the browser by default settings. I got tired of waiting and switched to Yandex. Now, very satisfied.
