Hi after updating Mac desktop version I have not been able to load it at all. Since my last update 14/3/20 Im constantly getting 'unexpected quit' messages and reports to Apple but cant open a page to get my bookmarks and passwords or access Flow to sync on iphone.
If I uninstall and re-install will I lose passwords?
Have used relatively glitch free since 2017. thx

@mimibrown It will depend on if you will enable or not the option to delete your data.

@mimibrown How do you uninstall programs on MacOS? On Windows there is a place where you can see all installed programs and uninstall them.

@mimibrown On Opera for Windows, you are asked if you want to remove your data or not. Maybe the same will happen with Opera for Mac.
