      I have opera gx with data synchronization turned on. I formatted the system and reinstalled the browser. After logging in to the gx opera account and entering the encryption password, it did not import previously saved data for me. I'm mostly into tabs and passwords. What can I do to recover lost data despite previously enabled data synchronization?

        @insthegames85 Your data is still in www.sync.ooera.com?

          @leocg I have no idea. When opera GX appeared in Poland, a few months later I installed it and immediately set up an account and turned on synchronization. For the first time since then, I reinstalled it and wanted to restore my data from the browser again.

            @insthegames85 If you go there and login, do you see that you have data there?

              i logged in to my account, went to the options for importing saved data, entered the encryption password and nothing imported. I went to my account under "View your synced data" and there is nothing there.

                @insthegames85 So you went to www.sync.opera.com and there is no data listed there?

                    @insthegames85 Then there is no data to be synced/recovered.

                      @leocg In such an interesting case, because from the moment I installed opera gx, i.e. about 2.5 years, I had the same account and synchronization turned on. Why then was nothing saved to my account?

                        @insthegames85 Was sync enabled? Have you ever checked to see if your data had been synced?

                            @insthegames85 So there was data listed in www.sync.opera.com before?

                            Have you used the option to reset the passphrase recently?

                              I don't know if they were on this page, which I give because I visited it only a few times in my life. I've never used them because I don't need to. I logged in from my browser settings and turned on sync. After installing it, I logged into my account and was asked for a password to encrypt my saved data. I had a problem for some time because I did not know what the password was and I tried to change it, but the only option it showed me was to erase all data in a situation where I am unable to remember this password. After what time I was able to log in using the encryption password and I was surprised because nothing was imported for me. I didn't wipe my data, I didn't change anything.
