      I have tried many times to see if I could set the system I'm using not to require my computer's login password, before I can log in to my email accounts, or website, e.g, Amazon, passwords; when I using this browser. It's annoying. I don't have to do it with Microsoft Edge, so, most times, I use it, and also, it seems to remember only some of my passwords, and they're the old ones, not the updated ones, I generally don't have this, again, with Edge. Anyone have any ideas on how I could eliminate the requirement of the system password before I can log into websites, or my personal email with this browser? Many thanks.

        @mdchlanda59 Opera doesn't ask for your OS password to allow logging in to sites.
        OS password is required to view saved passwords, like in any Chromium based browser.

          Opera doesn't have an option to require your OS user account password before you can log into a website. I have no clue how you're getting that behavior.

            Some extensions might do that. The only time Opera asks for your system password is if you go to Settings and ask to see your saved passwords, or if your computer starts without asking you for a password.
