      I'm currently unable to see/edit/delete any "User Bookmarks" bookmarks as it seems that only "Bookmarks bar" is syncing.

      This problem is happening to me on all systems that I've tried. Opera version: 98.0.4759.6

      • Windows 10 22H2
      • Manjaro 22.1.0 (Kernel 6.2.12)

      Prints below for a better understanding of the problem:

      Browser Bookmarks Page

      Browser Bookmarks Tab

      Opera Sync Page

      Opera Sync Web-Page

      Browser Sync Config

      Opera Sync Settings

        I've found a way to "fix" this sync bug.

        I checked Sync Internals > Sync Node Browser > Device Info to find out the version of Opera on my old PC. Then I downloaded the same version, which was 80.0.4170.16 (I stopped using Opera in 2021 and came back this week).

        The bookmarks synced correctly in that version, so I think they need to be updated to work in a newer version. When I change a folder or a bookmark name, it syncs with the newer version, but changing the folder name only shows the folder and not its content.

        I also noticed in the Sync Internals page that editing a folder or a bookmark in an older version of the browser would show as a new entry in the Type Info > Total Entries of the newer version.

        I took some screenshots to show how to update an old bookmark:

        Opera 98: Bookmark folder appears after adding a space in v80.

        Opera 80: Same folder. Adding a space in the bookmark.

          @chinaenjoyer Yes! preach! My sync is super messed up. I am trying to move to Opera (again) from chrome. I WANT to love the browser but I literally have tons of bookmarks.

          I cannot for the life of me get bookmarks to sync. I have enable, disabled sync, exported, deleted, sync, import, sync and it literally does not pickup a change.

          I have tried logging into https://www.sync.opera.com it just spins forever. Nothing happens.

          I literally don't know what else to do.
