      Hi all,

      I have upgraded to the latest stable build of Opera (v20) yesterday. So far so good except the password manager.

      I have noticed that two sites which worked fine in the previous version don't work, I mean login credentials are lost even if these sites have stored their credentials in the password manager. It's silly.

      I have also noticed that now when I want to see a password in the manager the administrator confirmation is required. I don't know if it is a bug or intentional security improvement of the stored passwords. Upon confirmation of administrator login I can see passwords. However after that I cannot open any site in Opera, in fact Opera gets stuck. I have to restart Opera to get it back to work. It's definitely a bug and fully reproducible on my Vista Business 32 system.

      A fix urgently needed.

      Thanks & regards.

          The anew password confirmation is a new security feature.
          Did you report that bug?

                Hi, I'm looking into the issue but I can't reproduce it. I'm using Windows 7, so not sure if it's vista only or something else. Have anyone experienced it on another platform than winVista?

                    Based on your comment I tried it today again and unfortunately the problem persists. Fully reproducible on my Vista machine.

                              Another stable update and no fix yet 😞 I wonder if they are ever going to resolve this bug. I am getting more and more fed up of Opera ... Why I wasted my time to report this bug when developers don't bother to fix it. A shame to speak ..

                                This bug got closed since it's not reproducible.
                                Are you able to reproduce this with a clean installation?

                                  What do you mean by a clean installation?

                                  "... closed since it's not reproducible."
                                  Firstly, it would be nice, in case something got closed, to update a thread accordingly.
                                  Secondly, 3 users reported the issue in this thread. So this issue isn't being observed exclusively on my machine. Please put more effort to reproduce and resolve it.

                                    install Opera as a USB-installation and try to reproduce it without changing any settings / installing extensions /...

                                    What about your user account? Are you admin? Which credentials do you enter to access your PWs?

                                      OK, thanks. Unfortunately I am short of time now to try a USB installation. Maybe later.

                                      I have only admin account, so I am admin. To see passwords an admin account login pops up and I have to fill password of my admin account.

                                        Opera 22 finally brought a resolution. No more problems with the password manager described in this thread. You can mark this DNA as resolved.
