I want to sync my data and have an account which is shown correctly at the first sign-in click. When I then hit the actual "Sign in", it shows a blank panel with a circular ring rotating. And it stops like this permanently ! It will not finish and sign me in.
Please advise how I can get the stsem to acept my details and sign me in so I can sync my data.
Thank you.
I have completed this small change and it works perfect. Did not take more than a few minutes.
I find seconds extremely useful for certain time-check tasks.
Follow the clear and easy instructions given pictorially in the link below and its done.
You have to restart your PC afterwards to show the seconds.
I had to use the 32-bit choice specified, regardless of my PC being a 64-bit set when selecting the new DWORD value.
Follow this link exactly -

The image shown is my taskbar showing seconds -
With the browser opened by Sandboxie and using
Winkey + point, the emoji panel comes up, but the emoji
will not insert in the text. Nothing happens on the click.
Using a non-Sandboxied browser, the emoji work perfect,
no problem.
The solution is provided by Barb of Sophos/Sandboxie, It works perfect.
Close browser.
Right-click on Sandboxie icon, then :
Sandbox > Defaultbox > Sandbox Settings > Resource Access > IPC Access > Direct Access
Click Add
Paste the following :
\BaseNamedObjects[CoreUI]-PID*
Click Apply and OK.
Re-launch the Sandboxied browser. Emoji now insert in text.
I am deeply disappoinjted, but your last fix -
"C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" "C:\Users\YourUserNameHere\AppData\Local\Programs\Opera\launcher.exe" --no-sandbox
never worked - still a white screen.
Gone back to normal Opera opening.

I have only had my new PC 3-4 days and am not yet conversant with it, Win 10 is a huge change after 14 years on Win XP. I am not able to manipulate Win 10 yet, so will have to leave these system adjustments until I have become more familiar and confident with Win 10.
I will use Chrome until Opera sorts out their software.
A zillion thanks for all the help you have given me.
STOP PRESS !
The latest on this matter - February 2019 - Opera is now compatible with Sandboxie
and the initial incompatibility with Opera is now solved.
Opera can now be Sandboxied.
Sorry my mistake - it is 160 not 106.
So the running of 154 did solve my problem. it obviously over-wrote any hiccups and kept all my data.
My thanks to all posters.
Problem solved.
Got It !
I enabled the import passwords in Opera flags - clicked the 3 dots against passwords - import - a panel came up showing my files - clicked the CSV file - Chrome passwords which I had exported and saved from Chrome and all my passwords came up in Opera !!
Problem sorted and thank you so much for your help.
Panic over - it was my VPN - when I switch the VPN off - Gmail is in English
My Gmail in Opera is in Dutch language.
How can I change this to English ?
Current version = 75.0.3969.93
For some treason it is now up-to-date and OK.
@leocg
On clicking Update and Recovery it says "checking for updates" and then comes up with -
Your version is 75.0.3969.93
An error occurred while checking for updates

Check for update
Surely it should have said that I am up-to-date not come up with an error !!!
My Opera version 75.0.3969.93 for my desktop PC will not update. I have tried many times and even run https://tinyurl.com/ukd7tps, but still update error shows.
Comments please.

@leocg said in Opera does not import passwords:
@johnbull44 Any difference if you import through opera://settings/passwords?
Can you import the passwords in other Chromium based browsers?
I have tried to import passwords to Opera using all kinds of methods but they all fail.
No problem importing passwords to my other browsers.
I do not favour fiddling about with importing a CSV file. Not worth the effort.
If I use Settings import passwords, It only acts a split second, says DONE and has done nothing.
@leocg said in Opera does not import passwords:
opera://settings/importData
They never worked either.
@naheed said in Opera does not import passwords:
First, in chrome settings, go to export passwords, then you can import passwords in two ways:
Go to the URL opera://settings/import data and import your passwords from Chrome. While importing passwords, make sure that the Chrome is closed.
You can also import the CSV file; in Opera://settings/passwords, the "import" option will be available.
I placed "opera://settings/import data " in the URL and nothing happened.
