      Dear Everyone,

      I've got the same problem connecting a new destop of mine and my phone. I have already deleted the old desktop, to which I could only connect the same phone with the manually entered code (the QR didn't work). However, I can't connect Opera Touch on my Nokia 6.2 and Opera on Windows 10 Pro desktop.

      Upon opening Flow's connect a phone menu, I even tried jumping to the QR code reader in Opera touch and it told me it was not possible to connect these two devices.

      Does anybody happen to have a solution to this? I also tried disabling my firewall on the desktop, but that didn't work, either.

      Thanks

        OK, after many days trying it, I found the solution (for me at least) and it is very simple:

        • Go to your phone's flow -> top-right menu (three dots) -> Settings
        • Under "My Flow" select "Delete My Flow"
        • Scan the QR Code again to connect. Voilà.

            Hi, your solution means that my already connected desktop will disconnect. Of course I can delete "my flow" and connect mobile phone with PC. What I cannot do is connect another PC to already connected PC number 1 and mobile.
            My current Opera ver 69.0.3686.77
            Opera Touch 2.5.2

            Anyone have a solution how to connect more than one desktop and mobile phone all together? e.g. 2 desktops and one mobile phone?

                  @Mixbox99 You're right, I just use 1 connection between my phone and computer. I thought all PC browsers connected to the same account (so not using the QR code) would share the same flow (?)...

                    @mwfontes But it used to work like a year ago or two years ago... I don't know when exactly it stopped. I had to reset my PC to factory settings in late June 2020 and this is when I found out I am no longer able to connect more than one PC.
                    In order to connect more than one PC I uded QR code - it connected PC to already exisiting Flow with its content. But back then Opera used to distinguish PCs but their name e.g. hp probook 450 or DELL Vostro 3456. Now it says just "desktop".

                      @mwfontes Won't this actually delete My Flow's content?

                        @Mixbox99 Hmm... interesting... I'll try to add another PC to the flow and see what happens...

                          @nadie-nada-nunca Unfortunately, yes. But that's the only way I managed to make it work so far. A bummer, I know, but I couldn't find any other way to be able to use it back again.

                                Hello, so I am happy to announce that with Opera ver 70.0.3728.71 I can connect more than one PC to My Flow 🙂

                                          @Kexx Thanks but no luck for me 😞 I'm leaving this browser now. The only reason I use it is Youtube commercials are gone with this one on my iPhone.

                                            I had this problem after I reinstalled my Opera and erased my user data, I got to connect everything the same way it was before, except Flow. Then I turned off vpn, adblock, nothing worked for me but delete my previous Flow information from my phone and unfortunately I lost many important messages... You have to disconnect both phone and desktop on settings and then delete Flow completely so it'll work I don't know why. When I got my new notebook I had to transfer everything from the old one and I got zero problems with Opera, I've never been so disappointed.

                                            that works my gosh i had delete the stupid app to get it to work i was surprised
