          I have the same problem. I did a reset of my synced data but in the "opera://startpage/activity" I can still see all the old devices. How can I reset them?

            I found the solution myself. I deleted the *.ldb files in the Local Storage folder and the other devices are gone. You can find the folder here Opera\profile\data\Local Storage\leveldb\xxx.ldb

              This worked! I just need to add that I had to sign out and sign in to resync once before I got the data from other devices again because the tabs just disappears after deleting the files! BTW neutrino youare just awesome! Wish you the best!

                      @neutrino I assume the opera/profiles deletion that you suggested was for PC. Any idea how to do so for Macs? this is related to the query: remove old devices from sync

                        @liquidmetal Check the path to the profile directory in opera://about. Then go there, locate the Local Storage folder.

                          Is there an updated solution to this problem? I don't have an Opera profile folder and I can't find any .ldb files. Thanks.

                              @neutrino It worked thanks a lot! Seeing all the old devices was really annoying

                                  Can anyone help with the same problem for current Opera version and most recent Windows 10? That is the path to the files to be deleted?

                                  PS: Removing "c:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable\Local Storage\leveldb*.ldb" does not help with getting rid of activity from old Android device, it i still there.

                                    @gooorooo Look for a text file on the same path. I just opened it and It contains code relating to my old devices. Just delete it and it's all done ^^

                                          sounds great. but does anyone know if this is for shure??

                                          i was kicked out from work and was forced to leave my windows passwort, so i'm a bit i am a bit curious if someone is sniffing arround.

                                          an official solution would be adorable. please dear OPERA

                                          imagine, if one had used the password autofill (i use bitwarden, for luck ) this is really bad, or, imagine your admin at work could log into your stuff,
                                          or, you lost your device, not secured. you may want to be sure

But how do we know those old devices was deleted and logged out opera from other devices? I believe this is only for visual purposes, we never know before anyone test up! Do you?
