Hey everyone, I recently reinstalled windows 11 because of some storage errors and have just logged back into Opera GX. I went to check that my bookmarks and passwords were synced, but as I went to check my passwords, it asked me to give an old passphrase. I always used Google to login with opera because it was easier to and I was logged for so long I never had to enter a password. A little while later, I was prompted to create a password for my Opera account for some reason (I thought it would of set it as my google password), and I tried that password. I've read that someone was having trouble with something similar and they were told to just login normally but mine is asking for an old password.

I understand that these are security measurements but I was never given any warnings about this. Also when reinstalling windows, I chose to keep all my important data and everything stayed but after reinstalling opera, it must of overridden my data and caused it to be wiped.
