<![CDATA[Where can I create my sync password?]]>I had to format my computer, and when I installed the opera browser again I tried to synchronize my bookmarks, however it asked for a long synchronization password which I had never seen before, which is preventing my synchronization.
Searching about I saw that several users have the same problem and we couldn't find a way to manage it, there is nowhere in the opera settings an option to create this long password, how can I synchronize my data if I never want to I created this password,
and the browser itself had never required this password to sync my data, before I had already done this process without needing a master password, why did this appear out of nowhere? and where can I create or recover this password so I don't have this problem again,
the help that opera provides is to clean all my synced data which causes them to be lost.
This situation is quite complicated for me, because I want access to my bookmarks and I have no way to access them,
if i do as suggested and reset all my data what guarantee do i have that this will not happen again? there is not even an option to create this long password, how will I be safe in saving new bookmarks?
If anyone can help me I'd be grateful!

If you don't remember it, you can use the option to reset your passphrase. Remember that all your synced data will be removed from the servers.

How are we users going to know this? I'm going to try to use other passwords that I've already made, if it works I'll give you an answer.

That's it for now, thanks!

Did you change it recently? Did you change it at any point?

In www.sync.opera.com, do you see all data encrypted? Or just the saved passwords?
