@Lovan7177 If you start typing in address bar, you don't see anything from the other Opera installation?

@Lovan7177 https://sync.opera.com/web/ shows your synced history?

@leocg no, and now sync logged me out and shows this message: Something went wrong.
Synchronisation has stopped because of an error. Please sign in again.
Over and over and over I can't sign in.

@Lovan7177 If there is no history in sync.opera.com, then it was never synced or your synced data was reset at some point. That's why you don't get your history back.

@Lovan7177 And how do you get them?
Maybe the data was reset after you have gotten your bookmarks?

@leocg hi, same problem here. But on https://sync.opera.com/web/ it shows my synced history and it's just a small part. How can I sync everything?

@SonLuke Logging in should be enough.

@leocg it is, but just for the sync'd things (which are only a few). I've been using Opera for several years, and the history saved is just about 500 sites. I'd really like to switch to Opera GX but I need my history and my passwords!

Edit: moreover, I don't know why but picture-in-picture isn't working on Opera and that's another reason why I want to switch to GX

@SonLuke You can try resetting your synced data.

@SonLuke What exactly is wrong?

@leocg I told you, it only synchronyzes some things. It only synchronyzes 2 passwords and 87 websites from history, and of course I visited more than 87 websites and saved more than 2 passwords!
