And yes, for some reason it asked me for it again today - a week later.

... why do they call it passphrase? is that something different? gah, opera could be so awesome...

A password is just that: a word, like 'cat' or 'dog'. A passphrase is just a phrase, like 'see the cat' or 'seethecat'. Depending on the website, some pass-terms can't include space symbols or certain other characters. In the sense of the software itself, there's no difference between passwords and passphrases. If trying to create long pass-terms for improved security, it's easier for some folks to remember a phrase than a long or randomly-constructed word.

... WHATIS THIS???

It's positive proof that you should write down your passwords/passphrases in a safe place.

Where can I find this passphrase????

Hmm, on your mind?

Unless you have changed it in sync settings, you should use your OS login password. Otherwise, if you have changed to use a custom password then you should inform that password.

... Why Opera makes more then I want?

Perhaps because Opera is built upon a chromium/Blink engine foundation that, for privacy, protects user passwords by employing a Windows-provided API which encrypts them such that they can only be decrypted within the same user account again using that Windows API. The engine then properly applies a decrypted password to a website. In other words, adopting the new engine brings along with it certain characteristic functionalities like this.

Any way you can try your OS password to see if it works.
