My entirety of Opera was wiped

Woke up this morning and my Opera was logged out. I logged back in, and all of my tabs, bookmarks, saved passwords, everything was gone. Is there a way to get it all back or am I just screwed?

I had something similar happen once with Opera GX, it can be super frustrating . If you were signed into your Opera account before it wiped, a lot of stuff (like bookmarks and passwords) should still be synced to the cloud. Try logging back in and going to opera://settings/syncSetup to check what’s enabled.

For open tabs, unfortunately those don’t always come back unless you had “sync open tabs” turned on. Sometimes you can still recover them from your history (opera://history).

If sync wasn’t turned on at all, then yeah, it’s harder — you’d basically be starting fresh. But if it was, most of your data should come back once you toggle sync back on.

Did you have sync enabled before this happened?

If your Opera GX migrated to the new profile layout, perhaps the migration didn't go well.
