@leocg I don't as I really wasn't expecting this issue - I thought I could just login again and resync everything.. but I guess I also wasn't expecting windows to wipe itself.

@itsbenetti The passphrase being asked may be your old Opera account password.

@kukuruzix It's asking for a passphrase/password or for the second factor authentication code?

hey leo,
It's asking for a passphrase, but I don't know if I put a passphrase on this account when Iam created it.
After a few days, after logging into my opera acc, everything seems to be fine, all the tags are where they should be, but opera still asking for passphrase to start sync. -

@kukuruzix Synced saved passwords are encrypted using your Opera account credentials, so Opera needs the password used when those passwords were synced to decrypt them.
The same for when you set up a passphrase to encrypt all your synced data, you will need to provide the passphrase to decrypt your data.
