      Is the migration of passwords possible in Opera? I have a clean Windows install, and I have the old SSD with all my files and settings. After installing Opera on the new system, I have copied over the C:\Users\MyUser\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software and C:\Users\MyUser\AppData\Local\Opera Software from the old SSD. I have everything except the passwords. Excessive googling didn't produce a result for this version (Opera 39).
      Is this even possible?

      Thank you!

        Stored passwords are encrypted using your OS login credentials so they can't be used in another computer or by another user in the same one.

        To migrate your password you should use Sync.
