      I am using Opera on several computers. On my home desktop running Windows 11, I did not set it up to require a password to log in. But on this device, when I try to view a stored password, Opera is requiring that I enter my "computer password." There isn't one, but I don't see how to clear this requirement.
      Any ideas would be appreciated!

        @mgedney The fact that you are not asked to provide a password to login to the OS doesn't mean that there isn't one.
        When you installed Windows 11 you were asked to provide your Microsoft account login and password or create a local account with an username and a password.

        That password is the one being asked.

          @mgedney When asked for a password to view your passwords, are you able to just press enter without typing anything?
