        @btryo The same way you do when you loose any password, you go to the login page (auth.opera.com) and use the Forgot My Password tool.

            I am trying to go in and change my password because I forgot the old one, I do not see anywhere where it says forgot password, but in order to go and change I need to remember my old password. I'm just trying to sync up all my password to my new PC. This is causing me stress beyond belief.

              @sjnfury You may need to provide your email address first, as you should already have guessed.

                It requires both the email and the old password to change your current password. I have gone in and changed it, but I can't transfer all my passwords over now cause it still needs the old one to transfer all of them.

                  @sjnfury Are you sure you are in auth.opera.com and, of course, are not logged in?

                    @sjnfury Yes, since the synced saved passwords are encrypted using your Opera account password, it is needed for decryption.
