Interesting. I'm not seeing any fixes for passwords in the Opera changelog. Not seeing any password fixes in the Chromium changelog either.

@afshinism When do you get the "Update Password?" dialog/bar? Does it happen every time you sign in with a different account on the same site?

@burnout426 Or, just when you change your password for the account on the site and then try to log in with that new password in Opera?

It's just when logging in with the new password for me, but wanted to double check.

Also, are you doing the update button on desktop or is there one on mobile that you're tapping?

@burnout426 This still keeps happening it really messed up my life, when I click on update in desktop it replaces all passwords of the same domain.

@afshinism I tried doing exactly that and couldn't reproduce. After clicking the update button, only the password for that particular entry on that domain gets updated. The other entries for that domain keep their passwords as they were. Same with or without Sync enabled. I believe you of course. I just can't trigger it (with 2 desktop Operas synced. Not able to try with desktop Opera and Android Opera synced though).

Can you log out of Sync on mobile Opera, then, change the passwords for one of the accounts, log into it on desktop Opera with the new password, and click update to see if it still changes all passwords for all accounts on that domain?

If it still happen again, can you try again with Opera desktop logged out of Sync too?

@afshinism I have the same problem. With sync on all my passwords of the same domain messed up! I have already repair-replace all the wrong passwords, but today the problem appears again!

I remove the synced data and reinstalled the opera, it seems to be fixed but now it says no password is synced so I am just waiting to see what will happen.

This is unbelievable & not acceptable. All my passwords now messed up. A big «thank you» to the Opera devs.
Insane...

Passwords won't sync, and when asked to confirm identity it asks for a password I don't remember putting in. I've been logged into Opera through my Gmail this whole time, and the password I set for my Gmail does not work here. I've tried logging out and clicking on forgot password, but no email has ever been sent to me.

this is complete a messed up issue, I feel compete insecure about it! all my devices synced with wrong passwords. The problem only on passwords that has the same URL but used different username but all passwords are same .

I was lucky that just previous day I had manual export . Really that changed my world.

I just found out that I have exactly the same issue only using Android devices Opera and not using update passwords because I didn't change any of them. Pw for same domain all changed to same pw and that's something opera did on it's own . 4 Google accounts and two Instagram have same pw. This is insane .

Hello, i've noticed that since about 2 days my synced passwords are all messed up! Most of the Passwords (auto fill) i've tried don't work anymore as they've been messed up with other passwords!

I'm using the latest version of opera on windows 10+11 and Android with Opera Sync enabled!

Does anyone else have a similar problem? is there a way to restore them?

I got this issue so many times.

I have repaired my passwords 3-4 times but opera still changes all passwords with the same url! How much longer to wait for the fix, before we go for another browser? ??

@anakioski Are you using Opera Sync too or does it happen without Sync also?

I'm experiencing the same issue: for any site where I have multiple accounts, all the accounts' password have been set to the same password. As I have Sync enabled, now the issue is spread across all my devices and there is no way of recovering the correct passwords.

Years of password management, which is the reason why I'm still sticking to Opera, are now gone.

Same here on my opera gx!
I've got over 2000 passwords in opera gx. All of them are messed up. On all my devices! Windows, ios, android, macos...
For example on gmail i have 10-15 different mail addresses and different passwords for each.
Now opera says i have 15 mails and one password, same password for all emails.
So one combination is correct and 14 others are wrong.
How on earth could this happen?
A big disappointment....
Any ways to fix?
I believe not!

wrong passwords got fixed automatically?
or you had to fix them manually and not messing up anymore?

If it fixes itself i will wait.
Otherwise for 2000+ passwords to fix manually, i will definitely change my browser. sadly.
