      Hi, I'm on latest version of opera. Have been using since it first came out.

      I tried to sign in using my account and the opera discussion site had managed to delete my account under the gropera username - without sending me any notification.

      I know, because using the user and email and forget password, no reset email was sent to my account.
      So I have re-signed-up as the same account name.

      Thanks for that!

      Anyhow, opera starting a day ago now stopped filling in passwords, I have about 20 I use withoin each week and about 8 per day or more. It asks me if I want to save them, and then when I go to settings it tells me there are none. So, it has deleted all my passwords.

      Are they gone forever?
      Does anyone know how to fix this?

      I can edit files etc.

      OSX 10.11.1

      Even the resize corner on this edit field I am typing in does not work properly, it only resized horizontally. That's on operas site, using opera.

        Is this Opera Stable, Beta or Developer?

          So how are you using it?

          I know, because using the user and email and forget password, no reset email was sent to my account

          Does it have a valid email address associated to it?

          Did you check your spam folder?

          So I have re-signed-up as the same account name.

          The system does not allow doing that as far as I know. Once an account is created, jt stays forever.

          OSX 10.11.1

          Running on Windows? 🙂

            Version: 47.0.2631.71 - Opera is up to date
            Update stream: Stable
            System: Mac OS X 10.11.1 64-bit

            I tried to sign in using my account and the opera discussion site had managed to delete my account under the gropera username - without sending me any notification.

            I have posted from the gropera account a few times. There is no record of those posts.

            I only use the forums when a new version breaks something enough that I can' fix it myself. So the last time would have been a cpl of years ago, maybe more.

            I have notes of login details... and i posted. Even google cannot find my old posts.

            Have the forums moved? I can't find any notice.

            OSX 10.11.1

            Running on Windows? 🙂

            No , OSX is a mac operating system.

            I logged and immediately created a post - on many sites it allows you to select the specific subforum after, never mind.
