@stevenjcee User at https://www.reddit.com/r/operabrowser/comments/11d9pb2/comment/jhvd7zz/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 had to also delete the "Login Data" file in the profile folder to get things to work, so I updated the workaround steps to reflect that.

@burnout426 Thanks for the updated info. I've deleted the login data, and will see if that does the trick. I see the safe storage file has again re-emerged in my keychain folder, so I deleted it, yet again. And now I'll see if re-logging into sites will stick, next time I close & re-open Opera....

By the way, last night I updated Opera on my older MacBook Pro, and it is now back to its old tricks of running up my RAM & CPU usage! This was happening all the time, until one of the recent updates got rid of that issue. Now it's back again.... wonder what those crafty developers/programmers did this time.

This thread said the issue is Solved but i've tried the method above a handful of times and it still isn't working.

Would be nice to get an official fix for it rather than Opera relying on people in the forums trying something that doesn't work for everyone.

Hello everyone. I am still having this same issue where, whenever I restart my laptop and reopen Opera, all of my login information isn't saved. So I have to re-login gmail, youtube, and the whole shabam.

I tried the solution offered by user burnout above, where you delete the Opera Safe Storage in Keychain Access, but even then my info isnt saved. This solution is not working for me. Is there anyone else having the same issue?

@botaybry Did you try the more thorough workaround?

@burnout426 I've done everything posted and more, a number of times, and still lose all my passwords every time, and still have that Opera Safe Storage show up in my Keychain! Why can't Opera just fix this with an update? I keep updating to newer versions, and still the same mess.... SMH

It's supposed to show back up.

I don't know.

@burnout426 I tried this. Unfortunately, this doesn't work. Don't why Opera can't fix this bug.

Really, this is ridiculous! This thread is not "solved" and even with the newest & latest Opera Update, today, it's still not saving passwords!! If their programmers can't even get that to work right, it doesn't say a lot for their crew.... SMDH

@stevenjcee I had to create a new password to get in, just last night, yet this morning it's gone, and all that was saved, was my old one, which didn't work. So I had to create another new one, which I hope it will actually remember the next time.

Hi guys !
Well, like everyone else here, I've got exactly the same problem as you...
and like all of you I'm finding it a real pain.
(I'm using a MacBook Pro M1.)
here it is, just one more message to (try to) get the devs' attention
Really, when they fix this bug it will change our lives.
Good luck to you all in the meantime

@burnout426 This problem has been plaguing me for a while, enough that I was about to dump Opera and go back to Chrome. This solution finally resolved the issue! Thanks!

@burnout426 OMG! Thank you! I've been struggling forever to find a solution! I was about to give up and change browsers. ️️️

Time to ditch opera, I think. I was very impressed with it and have used it for several years. I've changed settings many times, still can't get AI
on tthe sidebar. Perhaps you could tell me how else I might be able to get it to do what others seem to have managed that despite following all the instructtions and uninstalling then reinstalling, it will not do what it purports to do. What could you suggest please? It otherwise has so much going for it.
