Wow, i just figured out, that this is indeed a massive bug and there is NO WAY to look into your passwords with Opera 49.
It does neither recognize your Windows username nor your PIN. It just doesn't work.I needed a password badly so the only option was to install Opera 50 beta - there it worked fine.
Sorry, but this kind of bug is not acceptable. That was it with Opera...

I'm having that exact problem too. Ever since that last blasted update with Opera. And I don't like that I can't import export from old opera 49 to opera neon. This makes me want to dump opera altogether. NOT HAPPY OPERA !

One can accidentally wipe all passwords by accidentally clicking passwords for deletion Perhaps there could be a two-factor enablement for passwords?

Today I've read some of the Opera TOS
You'll need Keepass or any other password manager.

Hi,

@zalex108 What's the relation of that text with the subject of this topic or even with rudrick's suggestion?
The text doesn't even talk about what is being discussed here.@rudrick said in Problem with saved passwords:

Updated on December, and after some reported Passphrase issues:[] You are responsible for the security of your user account. Certain Services (including use of Opera鈥檚 forums) allow you to create a user account to access to certain Services.You are entirely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your user account and password. Additionally, you are also responsible for any and all activities that occur under your user account.[]
They will give no support about losing/forgeting the Passphrase - hidden information -.
Then, any suggestion about 2-steps authentication will not even be studied to be implemented.
It has a very close relation.

@zalex108 Yes, you are responsible for the security of zalex108 as well I am responsible for leocg, in the same way our banks say that we are responsible for our IDs and passwords there. That text is about it, your Opera account, the one you use here in the forums or on Sync.
The text is not about your saved passwords, that are stored locally. Also it doesn't say that improvements regarding the security of the accounts couldn't be added. -

Ok,
Sorry,It seem that has been a big misunderstanding.
@rudrick said in Problem with saved passwords:

He's talking about to protect the "delete local passwords", as I've seen the deletion don't even ask for your local password.
Thanks.

Re: Problem with saved passwords
Same problem here. I was facing this problem in my past. But now i am using "Avast Password" addons. Just install the Avast antivirus and enable the "Password Manager" .

Hey! The solution which worked out for me:
install an old version of Opera and from there just save you passwords! -

I downloaded Opera 2 days ago keeping Firefox in my PC, and I am glad I did. Opera seems to be a faster browser but the lack of solutions for problems like the passwords mentioned in this page seem endless and unresolved.
I found myself dealing with the same issue with this browser (Opera 36 for Windows 32 bit) and it is very frustrating. Although I have checked the choice "Offer to save the password" this browser does not offer that the first time I open a site that needs ID and password. Since all those type of pages are new for Opera, I was able to test and verify this problem over and over. Out of frustration, I decide to keep Firefox as my browser for password related sites and use Opera for browsing the Internet only. Better speed but not the right browser for me. -

@rumba826 Not related to the topic of this thread, and seems like you didn't really try it. Opera will ask to save the password once you have successfully logged in (that is to say, once the next page has loaded). Opera 36 doesn't have the issue this thread is about - but unfortunately there are no new updates for 32-bit Windows. The only browser I'm aware of that is still producing versions for 32-bit Windows would be Vivaldi, and that's not quite as stable as Opera yet.
