      @chris-in-eugene 100% the same problem.

      You can export Passwords and Bookmarks on Desktop. History I don't know.

      I was able to import bookmarks from the local HTML copy... But I think that the syncing on OperaGX is broken now...

      Gonna give it a day... If it doesn't work... Just gonna switch to Firefox.

        Same between Windows 11 & an Android device. Been true for weeks but just hadn't taken any action other than confirming that both devices are correctly logged in and sync is turned on. Definitely going to prompt me to look for another browser solution if this is not resolved soon.

          It's not reflected on this page either, so I guess the cloud sync isn't working properly.

              @thetoonz I have today been experiencing the same issues as everyone else here has mentioned.
              I have deleted numerous bookmarks and speed dials, got everything how I want it, emptied the bin, cleared all history apart from passwords, but then when closing opera and opening it again, all the stuff I have just deleted returns, so bored with no support from Opera, I'm leaving and going over to Edge, shame because Opera used to be the best, now its a convoluted mess!!!!!!

                  Same problem here!

                  Multiple win 11 computers, android phone & tablet. Last day of sync was about 5 months ago. Ever since, nothing is synced, although no errors are shown

                    Same here.
                    Last sync was in April. I even try a full new fresh install and still nothing, it just doesn't sync. Mind you, my flow is working most of the time now even if everything else doesn't (it didn't use to work at all for months).
                    Seems to me the problem is either on opera servers or it's
                    coding.

                      I looks like Opera doesn't care.

                        It would be nice if there could be a developer mode or something that would allow us to see any sync issues. Maybe in a log, or something that would point us in the right direction as to what is going wrong.

                          @chris-in-eugene There is opera://sync-internals/

                          And I get:
                          Commit Step Result | Protocol error (TRANSIENT_ERROR)

                            @thetoonz That is the same error showing up, but I can't find any more information about it. However, I did find other browsers, also based on Chromium, with the same issues, this one for Brave: https://community.brave.com/t/how-do-i-sync-history-now/523196/12
