Hi,

I wrote this in another thread but it may be to start one self.

My Sync does not work. I have an orange exclamation mark next to the profile picture. I have the latest version 58.0.3135.53

It says i'm signed in already, passphrase is accepted but the O-meny says "Signing in...."

I have reinstalled Win 10 pro, and Opera but still same. Read about deleting \AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable. The folder reappeared but didn't solve the issue.

I changed my password earlier yesterday though, but the new PW seems to work fine.... or? The old one does not work anymore for sure.

https://sync.opera.com/web/ shows all my data as it should, but Opera does not sync with it for the last 24 hours.

Yea, Same with the "full sized window" Facebook messenger that can take up to 15 seconds to switch from one contact to another. Almost the same time for a post to be seen after pressing "send" In Chrome it all work as it should.

Hi,

I just found workspace, and fall in love. I made 6 of them with numerous tabs, and a few days later all of them were empty.. Why not do it right for once Opera people. Figure out a away to keep taps even at crashes? Would it be so difficult?

Is says it is synced already, but that is not the case.

The problem must on on Opera's side as i have now restored a old backup of Windows 10 with a fully working Opera (50.0.2762.67 (PGO)) and it does not work either. Should i Sign in or out (Look at the picture)

PLEASE i need a hint how to fix this or at least get a confirmation that Opera Sync has temporary difficulties right now (for 3 days) i have spend 8 hours on this issue now and im running out of ideas.

I created a new account and that seems to work fine.... So my main account is corrupt in some way. How fix that? i have all 6 month bookmarks for my work are stored there, working with a new client so this will slow me down tremendously for month.

Is it even possible to get support direct from Opera them self? I cant find any support links.

And there it came.... 4 days with a orange exclamation mark, suddenly it became green.... I just left it as it was, and it sorted it out itself...

Hi,

What the heck is a passphrase? Some kind of password i guess. None of my password works and i have no memory of setting any passphrase earlier. How to get around it?

Saving and restore the file "Login Data" was said to restore all bookmarks and passwords.... But no passwords were saved or restored

@sgunhouse said in Passphrase???? I have never entered any such:

Opera's passwords are encrypted to your OS login, if you reinstall your OS and have to recreate your user account Opera will not be able to read a backup. Sync would work, but you will have to know your old password for that. If you don't know that then your saved passwords can't be read.

My OS login password, old or new, does not work as passphrase, i have tried that already. Should i change back to my old OS password, would that help?

Hi,

Opera is so fking broken nowadays. I can't even log in here without error messages and failed logins, so i have to use Chrome to be able to write this.

I went from IE to Firefox 2004 and loved it for 12 years, but around 2016 when Firefox decided to commit suicide by stupidity, i moved to Chrome, but I didn't fully liked it. I quickly found Opera and it was love immediately. But now Opera seems to have suicide plans as well as NOTHING works anymore.

I have posted these issues before and followed every suggestion given to me to no avail. I only have one option left, and that is to format and reinstall Windows. But I will not do that as this is my only computer for work and private, and i'm not sure the problems will be solved by a such drastic measure. Moving to Chrome is not an option, and seeing Firefox's death throes from the hangman's knot is not directly encourages one to give them a second chance either.

Opera problems (All works fine in Chrome)

• Many websites does not load correctly or take ages to load
• I can't mouse scroll on some websites
• Some website has a 3-10 seconds delay when typing
• Some login pages shows strange errors including this forum
• My bank in Vietnam "times out" many times
• My bank in HK takes forever to execute transactions or "times out"
• Facebook messenger only load a handful of contact and keep the rest grayed out.
• Facebook messenger- It takes 10-15 second to switch from one contact to another.
• Getting "out of memory" warnings all the time (Having 32Gb ram)
• Writing text similar to this and Opera decides to reload the page and all text is lost.
• And many more minor issues

I have updated to latest version, cleaned cache, history, uninstalled, deleted the profile directory, not using addons, reinstalled Opera etc etc and the problems are coming back after just a few days of use.

@leocg said in Opera is broken. Take ages to execute commands:

@zazz-bkk Preferences file doesn't contain your passwords. if a settings reset removed you saved passwords, most probably your profile directory was broken.

You should have some safe guard for you users in case a bug screws things up like your recovery just did for me

@leocg said in Opera is broken. Take ages to execute commands:

@zazz-bkk preferences.backup.

No difference when restore it. And the date is not from the reset at 15th when all passwords disappeared.

@leocg said in Opera is broken. Take ages to execute commands:

@zazz-bkk It's in the profile directory.

Okay, but where? And what is the name of the password file backup?

These are the ones I found but restoring them (switch names) did not do anything.

This sucks again. I can't add any pictures here anymore...

Getting
ERROR
Something went wrong while parsing server response

I had to use Chrome to be able to post this picture without any error message. So what is the name on the password backup file? Any of these?

Reading that the file "Login Data" contains the passwords, but i can't find and backup version of it...

Where are the backup files for all settings stored and what name do they have?

Did a recovery, and all my setting including all passwords went gone.... Such a crap.....

And workspace is the culprit for slowing down Opera. Added 60+ tabs on the main Workspace, all worked fine, but then distubuted them to different (3 more WS) and Opera is again super slow.

@leocg said in Opera is broken. Take ages to execute commands:

@zazz-bkk Opera://flags, you reset them. However, if you don't know what it is, then probably you never messed up with flags.

All setting were at Default.. So the only option seems to do a "factory reset". I have done that a many times over the years so something must be seriously flawed with Opera when that is necessary to preform so often. Not how a software should work.

@leocg said in Opera is broken. Take ages to execute commands:

@zazz-bkk if it works in the standalone installation, then most probably there is a problem with your main installation profile directory or maybe a setting/flag is causing the issue or an extension.

Hi and thanks for your reply.
As i wrote before, all extensions are disabled. But for the "flag" What is that? Please let me know how to fix a problemtic "flag"

Tried the standalone installation and it seems to work fine with FB messenger.

No, i was wrong. It is a bit faster but some similar problems occurs in the contact list where contacts are not loaded.
