        First, a tip: a synchronization service should never be used as a backup because one little mistake can make you loose all your data on all your devices.

        Well, if Sync doesn't work only on one device then most probably something is blocking it. Did you check anti-virus, firewall and any software that may be blocking Opera from accessing the sync server?

                @slobodan Do you mean that the data was removed locally? They were using the sane sync credentials?

                    When you reset your data it is removed from the sync server and since it's a synchronization service, all devices connect to it will start to synchronize the lack of data.

                    That's why a synchronization service should never be used as a backup service.

                        here is my suggestion:
                        maybe you should consider using blockchain technology instead clasic servers.
                        here is a recomendation "storj.io"
                        they are cheaper, more reliable and at least 2x faster. and the most important it is impossible to loose any data.
                        some food for thought.
