@hebbex Thank you so much! This worked for me!
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

@hebbex Than you, Great. 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"

This solution worked for me on the macOS. Thanks.
@hebbex said in "Confirm your identity to enable encryption" button not working:

Hi there pals. I've see a solution in another topic. And I tried. It worked for me. I hope it will works you for aswell

"Test this solution. Remove the Opera Safe Store password from Keychain Access login item.

Steps:

Open Keychain Access application

Choose 'login' keychain on left

Choose 'Password' group

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

@hebbex this actually did work for me as well. I did have to manually import my passwords from Chrome, but at least that bug wasn't displaying anymore. Thanks for the help!

@srhardy it's actually on your Mac. 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.

@hebbex Thanks! 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!

Hope this helps!

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!
