      And I tried to fix it, ended up deleting all of my tabs when I formatted my computer, So many tabs, of things I wasn't supposed to lose! I tried to contact Opera via e-mail, no answers, they refuse to bring back my bookmarks, I'm losing my mind.

        @goddessofmean If you removed your synced data from the servers, there is no way to get them back, unless if you have a backup.

          I tried setting a passphrase to synchronize everything, but it doesn't let me, every time I click save, it redirects me to the home page in settings, but it doesn't save anything, and when I try inputting that same passphrase in another device, it tells me that it's wrong. help?

                Good morning,

                I allow myself to solicit your help following the observation of an anomaly on Opera GX
                Sync does not work at all
                I tested Opera and Opera GX this and identical on both browsers
                The connection to the account is done well, but all that is recorded Log / CDM and other sound KO
                if attached a screenshot of the anomaly found

                thank you for your feedback and analysis

                Cordially

                  I just did a full reset of my PC and when I logged back in to the browser with my account it won't let me sync anything. I can go to the sync page and I can see that I have synced passwords bookmarks etc and I can choose what to sync in the settings but It's just not syncing and I have this message: 667a5797-cffe-4f78-b7af-55e7999fd7c6-image.png

                    I just changed computers, and when I logged into my Opera GX account, the synchronisation won't work. What should I do ? Please, I have more than 400 bookmarks, and I have no way of getting them back otherwiseimage_2023-03-15_153607225.png

                        @momocchi Were you using a custom passphrase for Sync? If so, the error caused by Opera trying to access your data without your custom passphrase. But, you can't enter the custom passphrase in your new Opera because the options is missing. The bug is only fixed in Opera Developer at the moment.

                          Did Opera have a problem ?
                          Because i have the same problem with synchronization
                          And as I remember that Opera need to passphrase to authenticate Sync but i didn't see anything menu to authenticate this when I updated Opera to new version

                              Guys there is a fix which is to delete the newer opera version and download opera 95 then you'll be able to see the paraphrase and sync succesfully. After that you can update to the newest version without any issues.
                              NB. Be careful not to click on the 'reset sync' from the settings since I missed clicked it and my date since 2018 has been wiped without any warning. I think it was a bug or something.
                              Have a great day!

                                Coz that's what I'm using

                                  @sharpeyeam To be honest I haven't tried that, I only use the normal one.
                                  I did a quick reseach and I could't find the 95 version of GX so hopefuly they'll drop an update and get it fixed

                                      Good solution, I re-installed Opera version 92.xxxxx. Then, I sync everything with my account and update to a new version. It was successful

                                        I realized the manipulation I have DL version: 95.0 Build 4635.25 like version: 83.0.4254.27 of January 2022
                                        and the anomaly is totally identical even if I completely clean all Opera or Opera GX residue from my computer

                                            tried a couple of times but after deleting manually the 3 folder paths in the about section

                                            opera://about/

                                            C:\Program Files\Opera GX

                                            C:\Users(your username)\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera GX Stable

                                            C:\Users(your username)\AppData\Local\Opera Software\Opera GX Stable

                                            downloads are from here

                                            https://get.opera.com/ftp/pub/opera_gx/

                                            then trying all the 95 versions (none worked)
                                            but the 94 worked then after updating to latest version it still works ... sync is back

                                            this is the one that worked for me (just make sure u have the right version (x64 or not))

                                            https://get.opera.com/ftp/pub/opera_gx/94.0.4606.96/

                                            then select win or mac (but i guess its win users getting this problem)

                                            Opera_GX_94.0.4606.96_Setup.exe
                                            or
                                            Opera_GX_94.0.4606.96_Setup_x64.exe

                                            hope it helps for others ... but i think the key was deleting manually otherwise i would encounter errors uninstalling

                                            good luck 😁

                                            PS: if you wanna save time prepare a copy paste of the links and account and your password cuz i think i tried alot of times
