[Solved]Opera is not saving data (or it's being removed)

The issue is that Opera logs out from everytihng on quit.
Mini M1 - Ventura 13.2.1 - Opera 96.0.4693.80 (arm64)

• Clear cookies and site data when you quit Opera-> OFF
• I don't care about cookies -> Disabled

---

• Opera does remember account details on re-launch (could be due to MacOS), but are logged out from all and require passwords (haven’t messed around with keychain or what the right terminology within Opera is..).
• Have to reconfigure opera sync after re-login (doesn’t remember anything).

---

• Ethernet is currently routed through a PC as an ad-hoc to aid an bluetooth issue (apparently common), but had the logout issue prior (I also would assume MAC/IP doesn’t change while just quitting and reopening Opera)
• Opera GX installed too, but also on other systems without no issues.

@burnout426 said in Opera is not saving data (or it's being removed):

Test this solution. Remove the Opera Safe Store password from Keychain Access login item.

Steps:

Open Keychain Access application

Choose 'login' keychain on left

Choose 'Password' group

Find 'Opera Safe Storage' entry, right click it and choose Delete.

Legend, Thanks for giving us this info!

@burnout426 Hi where can I find this Keychain access application?Opera doesn't ask for autofill :((. I also tried importing my passwords, but that did not work either. I really don't know what to do to get opera to safe my passwords. Thanks in advance!

@inkysanimation, @sophiehijink

See https://www.google.com/search?q=mac+where+is+the+keychain+access+app. It's a macOS app.

hi, i bought a new macbook air m1 3 days ago, before than that i was using win10 and opera as a browser

When i first opened my macbook, i immediatelly install opera and try to synch my bookmarks, passwords etc. but definetly couldn't

I even tried transfer my passwords via an .css file but opera doesn't save my passwords. I tried the solution above too but it doesn't work on my computer, i hope you can help me.

The solution above the topic doesn't work on my computer.

i just recently got opera and i love everything about it except for the fact that Every Time i close it, it logs me out of Everything! i'm talking google, spotify, even my literal opera account gets logged out. (side note- the discord thing on the side stays logged in for some reason but thats the only one...?)

i've tried looking for a solution everywhere, i changed my cookie settings, i've messed with the vpn, checked out my account settings and nope, nada, nothing. it's really infuriating and i'm about to just delete it and switch back to google chrome

also, the passwords just, put simply, do not work.
i tried adding the file containing all of my passowords, i tried syncing from google, and i've tried just using the built in apple password tracker and None of them work. and a lot of my passwords are just a random selection of numbers, letters, and signs, thanks to the "strong password creator" thing that macs have baked in.

someone please help me before i go insane
