          As I said above, (both developer and stable version) bookmarks are still missing

            @msb Hello! Just wanted to clarify, when you said system restart, do you mean rebooting the computer or just the browser? I'm still not getting my bookmarks synced unfortunately.

              I had that problem too when I refreshed the sync page, but what I did was reset my sync data, logout and back in on both PC and Android versions that I had, then shut down both PC & Android browsers (not the computer or tablet). When I reopened both browsers, everything was working fine and the duplicate bookmarks did not come back. I would only do this if you have a bookmarks backup or already have bookmarks on either of your browsers otherwise you'll wind up with no bookmarks whatsoever.

                Another update. Apparently initial fix for id's wasn't working properly and we done another fixup to this. This second fix for missing bookmarks was triggered manually for @msb and @berrram accounts. @berrram could you try to log out of sync and log in again to confirm that bookmarks appear for you again? If you can confirm this works this fix will be triggered for all users.

                  Just had to reinstall Windows again and dumb Sync is still not restoring my bookmarks. It seems to restore other settings, but does NOTHING with bookmarks. What a mess. Now I have to yet again copy bookmarks file by hand from other system...

                            Just to sum it up. Current fix is live now and confirmed to be working. If anyone is still experiencing any problems logout and login to sync again should help.

                                  @rejzor It seems to be working for everyone now. How's it working for you? (You can try with a new profile if you already imported your bookmarks manually and syncing still doesn't work. Or, you can try in a standalone installation which will have a new profile).

                                    @endlessfx After swapping to 1803 version have exactly the same problem. Tried to install Opera developer, beta, stable, none of them sync bookmarks.

                                      Had to reset my sync data yet again because the duplicated bookmarks folder issue happened again. I'm not sure if that was before the fix or not since I didn't notice the double folders until yesterday. So far there's no double folders, but with sync's track record, I don't really trust the duplication bug not to come back.

                                      @haxanus Windows 10 build 1803 (aka spring Creators Update) doesn't exactly play well with Opera in general. With me, sync had messed with flash after the repair shop installed 1803 onto my laptop so now I have to use an addon inorder to get flash to work. Also it causes Opera to load pages slower than any other browser to the point that I would get page could not be loaded error pages more often than I ever did before being slapped with 1803.

                                        @mgeffro I just realize that extensions are not sync on opera. Is this normal?

                                          Yes, extensions sync was never implemented.
