      I cannot access password management settings to change a password. I get an error message stating that I either entered the wrong login name or password. This makes me unsure of whether I have to use a different password other than the one I have saved for my Opera browser or if I need to use another combination designated for something else. What am I doing wrong?

        @graywoulf You don't need a password to access the passwords manager section in the settings page.

        However, if you want to view or edit a saved password, you need to provide your OS password as it has been since almost ever.

          @leocg Thanks for the information. I am trying to change a password and since I did not know which login and password I needed, I could not access the website I wanted to modify. Now I have to figure out what my OS login credentials are. I have no idea what they are at this time. Thanks again and Happy New Year!

            Found out I could use my PIN number to access the password manager's edit functions. So all is well now. Thanks again.
