I just reinstalled my Windows and now I lost all the data on the Opera GX. On the other hand, all the tabs, passwords, bookmarks and flow messages are on my phone. How do I sync one another? I don't want to lose that data, when I had an error before and connected my flow to an empty chat on PC, it cleaned all my messages that were on phone.

To sync your Opera GX data from your phone to your newly installed Windows PC without losing any information, follow these steps:

Sign In on Your Phone:
Ensure you are signed in to your Opera account on your phone. This account should already have all your tabs, passwords, bookmarks, and Flow messages.

Backup Your Data:
On your phone, back up your Opera GX data:

Go to Settings in Opera GX.
Find the option to Sync and backup.
Ensure all necessary data (bookmarks, tabs, passwords, etc.) are checked and synced to your Opera account.
Install Opera GX on PC:
Download and install Opera GX on your Windows PC from the Opera GX official website.

Sign In on PC:

Open Opera GX on your PC.
Click on the Menu button (Opera logo) in the top left corner.
Go to Settings > Sync and backup.
Sign in with the same Opera account you used on your phone.
Sync Data:

After signing in, make sure all the data types you want to sync (tabs, bookmarks, passwords, etc.) are selected.
The sync process should automatically start, and your data from the phone will be transferred to your PC.
Use Opera Flow:

For Flow messages, ensure that Flow is activated on both devices.
On your phone, go to Settings > Flow and scan the QR code shown on your PC’s Flow section.
This should link your devices and sync Flow messages without overwriting data.
By following these steps, your Opera GX data from your phone should successfully sync to your Windows PC without any loss. If you encounter any issues, double-check that you are signed into the same Opera account on both devices and that sync options are enabled for all required data types.

Transferring your data to Opera GX is a straightforward process. You can easily import bookmarks, passwords, and browsing history from your old browser through Opera’s built-in import feature, making the transition seamless and convenient.

@xivlauncher You know that Opera Touch is/was a browser for Android and don't have such feature, right?

It doesn't even have sync.
