      This mornign I reinstalled windows and noticed that GX doesnt sync as it usually works. So checked my work PC and I wasnt logged in there. When I did so I got the same error there as well.

      When I follow Sync here it navigates me to:
      3e936786-e11f-4ac9-ad7e-73c8a31bd06e-image.png
      Where everything seems to be fine. My Opera account seems to have the data saved there, it just doesnt want to sync

          Same Probleme here.
          Opera GX not syncing. Because there is no option to enter the Passphrase!
          I reported a bug via E-Mail
          Nothing Happened!
          Please We Need A Fix!
          I do not understand how to install a previous version without loosing my opera bookmarks

            @robde Do you think a previous versions will fix it? You can export bookmarks from Menu -> Bookmarks -> Export and quickly move them to another version
            Edit 1.
            Where do you download previous versions from?

                Not using the GX version, but I've had the same issue in Opera and just got version 97.0.4719.43 where the passphrase option is back again!
                Adding my passphrase again has fixed the sync issue!

                      @antoon1 What worked for me:

                      1. On a second computer I installed Opera_GX_94.0.4606.96_Setup_x64.exe
                      2. I copied the folders
                        C:\Users(your username)\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera GX Stable

                      C:\Users(your username)\AppData\Local\Opera Software\Opera GX Stable
                      from original computer to that new installation
                      3. signed in to opera account
                      4. opened https://www.sync.opera.com and reset the passphrase
                      5. On the new opera 94 install disabled sync
                      6. (maybe restart opera) enabled sync again on the new operagx 94 installation without a passphrase and wait at least 15 minutes to sync
                      7. On original computer uninstalled operagx(take screenshots of your extensions forst so you can reinstall them and export your saved passwords in settings by clicking the 3 vertical dots, to be save export bookmarks as well in bookmarks menue) and deleted all 3 folders 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
                      8. installed Opera_GX_94.0.4606.96_Setup_x64.exe and signed in to opera account and enabled sync. now all your data is back
                      9. auto updated operagx to new version

                        @robde This way sync works again without a passphrase and you do not lose your data.
                        Manually export and manual import of passwords and bookmarks would be also a simpler option. Simply export manually passwords and bookmarks and then uninstall and import on a fresh install manually

                          I'm getting a notice when trying to enable synchronization on Opera GX and I'm encountering this issue, https://i.imgur.com/QhBu810.png, I've tried different accounts, turning it off and on again, signing out and back in, and nothing works. It's just for my current PC but works fine on my laptop as far as I know.

                              As I have read through all the comments here, literally nobody is able to synchronize their browsers. Me neither, I just built my first pc and wanted to continue with opera gx on it like I did on my laptop but now I am forced to change everything manually, because synchronization does not work. Opera, please fix this.

                                Opera GX won't sync between two pcs or between a pc and an android phone. I have logged into my 1 account across all 3 devices and have set up "sync everything" on all 3 devices. Nothing syncs. I don't see bookmarks on the sidebar, no passwords saved.

                                  will this gonna get fixed any time soon ? Or should i find another web browser to use ? How the hell opera devs can not fix this for so long ? Makes no sense at all... Investing so much money on advertising software that is not working 😲

                                    I encountered the same issue. I use Opera GX on my macbook and now, I want to use it on my iMac. I installed the GX and login, do the stuff for synchronize but it doesn't sync all of the setting (sidebars, flows, mods etc.) and bookmarks to each other. What I got is that the GX synced the tabs I opened in macbook to iMac but other than that...non is synced.

                                    Hope this problem will be solved soon.

                                      I have tried syncing my account to another computer but when I click on the sync everything option, it just crashes, reopens and repeats it 3 times. After that, i can't even open Opera GX
