      Hi sorry for posting this as it has probably already been asked (I cannot find it if it has).
      My computer wiped all me data from itself so I had to redownload Opera GX and when doing so I had forgotten my account password, I reset my password and logged in but now all my other passwords are locked behind the old password, I cannot remember my old password for the life of me and I wont ever remember all my other passwords is there a way to get past this?

        @kaiyo248 There isn't. Synced saved passwords are encrypted using your Opera account credentials (or your passphrase if you have set up one) amd then uploaded to the server. So you need to provide the password used back on the time of the original synchronization.
