      I have more than 1 windows 10 computers setup with a synced opera browser. I would like to configure flow but instead of asking me for the confirmation code I need to login to opera on windows. Then flow seems to work, things do show up on my tablet. But since I can't confirm I will eventually close the confirmation code and then it no longer works.
      The first time I setup flow, windows ask my for the confirmation code, and all worked fine. But on my laptop, trying to connect to the same tablet, things go wrong 😞

        Got it working using the opera.com/connect website.
        I think it had to do something we me changing the windows default computer name. Now I would like to just delete this topic, but I can't find that option. It's my post so I should be able to delete it?

          @uberprutser I have a similar problem...
          or had I should say.
          While I was on holiday, Opera on my WIndows 10 work computer upgraded to Opera One, therefore logged me out of everything.

          First of all I had to reset the password of my Opera account since it kept on telling me it was wrong...

          Then I realised that my phone had been kicked out of My Flow.
          When trying to reconnect it, I opened My Flow on the side bar on my computer. I could scan the QR code, I get a confirmation code on my phone and the request to follow the steps on the other device, but on the computer I just get logged in to my account.

          However, by opening a new tab on my computer, typing in opera.com/connect, I got another QR-code, and that way it worked.
          You might want to try that. I am not 100% sure if I did something on my phone that prompted that tip... Maybe through the "other options" at the bottom of the screen (phone).

          Good luck!

            @mdrlc I suspect my flow problems came from the computer name change. And I also used the link on the opera website to setup flow again. I hope I'll stable this time around 🙂

              @uberprutser I have the same problem but the problem is that every time I try to use my Flow it deconfigures my Opera account, and I have to log in to my Opera account again, any recommendations?

                @alexdaj I'm giving up on Opera. My sync setup stopped working and so did flow. For now I'll stick to using Brave. Perhaps I'll try Opera again when they have worked out the flaws.
