12.17 x64 ... and I didn't import on first installation.

That's it. It seems that Opera only imports from x86 installs of Presto and if it is installed in default folder.

You can try this but note the warning and i'm not sure if it still works.

I've always thought that this is possibly because my Presto Opera is a standalone USB install.
Is yours?

Your 12.17 is x86 or X64?

In Opera 26:
Alt P
Browser
Button Import Passwords and Settings...
Select Opera 12.x
Select Items to Import (select only one!)

Saved Passwords

Import

How can I import my passwords from the 12.x?

So I hope you backed that up too.

If everything is ok, your passwords will be imported.
