<![CDATA["Confirm your identity to enable encryption" button not working]]>Ventura 13.2 M2 Mac, Brand new

Signed in to my Opera account, bookmarks, history, etc synced successfully. In "advanced sync settings" below passwords there is a "Confirm your identity to enable encryption" button, pops up a page for me to enter my password. After entering password and pressing "next", page closes and returns to "advanced sync settings" with nothing changed.

Currently locked out of all my passwords!

Thanks!

The fix that I made on 2nd laptop (Windows) is that I exported my passwords (password-manager/settings) from my 1st laptop, shared this file to the 2nd laptop, and then imported it. No automated fix regarding this. It's just my workaround just to have my saved password on my other device. Cheers guys!

I deleted two entries with the name Opera Safe Storage on Keychain Access, and then the Opera Desk App let me go further and solve the issue. So helpful!

Press cmd+space and type 'keychain access'. I had the same issue. The problem is people don't know how to describe the steps properly.

Steps: OSX OPERA with the password problem!

Open Keychain Access application (what/where is this???)

Choose 'login' keychain on left ~

Choose 'Password' group

Find 'Opera Safe Storage' entry, right click it and choose Delete."

I did it and works perfectly, I think its because when you sync your iCloud settings backup the old one and if you install a new it cause a "block"

In my case, there were 3 different Opera Safe Storage entries, so deleted all of them and then signed back again into Opera account. Then I selected Sync everything and voila!

Unfortunately, yesterday I switched to Firefox and I must say the UX on that browser is leagues ahead. I will possibly not be using Opera anymore 😞
