      When I click “Confirm your identity to enable encryption” in Sync settings, the password dialog opens.
      When I type a wrong password it shows “Incorrect password” so the page is reacting to what I do.
      But the correct password just loads, closes the dialog, and the button asks me to confirm again. Sync shows “Synchronization has encountered a problem”.

      What I’ve tried: turned off the VPN and ad blocker, allowed cookies for opera.com, cleared site data, signed out and back in, updated Opera GX, rebuilt the local Sync Data folder, and tested in a completely fresh profile (same problem). The “sync passphrase” option stays greyed out, so I can’t use it as a workaround.
