      Hi Opera Moderators and Support Team,

      I am completely locked out of my main Opera account because I lost access to my Authenticator app and unfortunately, my backup recovery codes are gone.

      I have tried reaching out via email but was redirected here. I am the original owner of the account and I am willing to provide any necessary proof of ownership (IP address, device info, creation date) to verify my identity.

      Could a moderator please help me escalate this to the support team to manually disable the 2FA or do a full account reset? I understand that my synced data might be wiped for security reasons, I just need access to the email/account back.

      My locked account email is: idelchannel@gmail.com

      Thank you!

        Hello, While I'm not a moderator I am having the same issue as the above user. I have two personal e-mails connected to opera that need to be deleted but due to losing the 2fa authenticators and the backup codes I can not access the accounts on my own.

        I need assistance with deleting these so that I can re-sign up under one of them. as I realize saying those e-mail addresses publicly could put them at further risk please send me a private message and I will gladly provide the information needed to carry this request out. much apreciated.
