      Hello, I hoped that I would of been able to contact support directly, but it seems nowhere to be found lol...

      How can I change my email and then my password? Unfortunately, I can no longer acess the email it is connected to.

        @Kitsu289 Just login to your account and change it. Or are you saying that you don't remember your password and don't have access to the email associated to your account to recover your password?

          @leocg Yes to the second - To change my email, it asks for the password. However, the password is incorrect. The email itself is in "limbo," where I can see incoming emails, but I cannot open them because the email is something I can no longer access.

            @Kitsu289 Did you try checking in the browser? If you have previously used that account with other Opera services and saved that login, it should be visible in your saved logins. Sync itself won't unless you also accessed sync.opera.com, but maybe you did that, or have an old forum account, or a developer account on the addons site, or ...

            Generally Opera is prohibited from accessing your personal information, so no one there or here in the forums has access to your password. If you can't access your old email you're probably better of creating a new account.

              @sgunhouse It has a connection via third party, so it can be logged into like that - however, that leads to issues down the line...

              The browser itself has other things saved, but I tend to have master passwords and ones like opera's password not saved into the browser directly. I must of neglected to update my records about a password update.

              I just kinda wished I could get the activation code in the subject of the email or something so at least I can confirm and change the email that way, as silly as that sounds. Probably going to make another account also soon after I try to back more of my stuff up.
