Every Internet user is forced to register on numerous sites. And it doesn’t matter whether you are an amateur or a professional programmer, the very first step in the network is getting an email address. None of the actions can be done without it: correspondence, sending files, confirmation of registration facts. Mail acts as an online identity card. With greater immersion in the Internet, the user discovers social networks, shops, forums, games, online banks, etc.

Standard security recommendations state that the same password should not be used on different resources. Strict implementation leads to an increase in the number of passwords. It's hard to remember them all. But how can you make life easier? How can I make the Opera browser itself remember passwords for each page or resource? Automatic login with auto-filling of login and password frees the user from torment and suffering. There is no need to look for pieces of paper with notes, leaf through a notebook and strain your memory.

Password recovery

A logical question is: how to restore personal data after reinstalling the operating system and browser? How to easily log into a resource on another computer?

So the Opera system has built-in functionality for remembering passwords. When a user registers on a resource for the first time, the system automatically creates a request about his further actions: remember the password or not. Only a person makes a choice about the required option.

If desired, the Opera browser settings allow you to configure auto-saving of registration data. To do this, simply enter the menu using the “Show all passwords” button. And data about the resource name, login and password will appear. If desired, the data can be deleted.

But making it easier to remember passwords threatens to turn into a big tragedy if the PC is stolen or access to it is not protected. Be sure to lock your screen to prevent negative consequences.

  • Why doesn't Opera save passwords?

So how can you still restore all personal data to the necessary resources if you had to reinstall the operating system or the Opera browser for your computer on your PC? And there is nothing complicated here. The fact is that all the necessary information about saved passwords in Opera is stored in a specific system file on the computer’s hard drive. It is enough to have a copy of this file and the problems will be gone.

To access this special file, you need to insert C:UsersuserAppDataRoamingOpera SoftwareOpera Stabl in the search bar of the My Computer folder. In the folder that opens, find a file named Login Data.

By saving this file on an external drive, you will receive a kind of backup copy of all personal data for logging into Internet resources (all logins and passwords).

Other options

If the user believes that Opera Mini’s built-in functionality does not cope with the task, then he may well download the application. There are many additional options for saving passwords. It is worth remembering that installing a third-party application is not safe.

Important to know when saving data

Before moving on to the main part of the instructions, it makes sense to clarify several important points related to saving data. Since you will save the login and password for your account in the browser, this means that absolutely anyone with access to your personal computer or mobile device will be able to access your profile.

Therefore, it is not recommended to enable the auto-save feature in the following cases:

  • You use a social network and a browser in general on a work personal computer. You don't know who might be using your device at work while you're away.
  • Several members of your family use the same computer.
  • There are correspondence or photographs on your personal account that should not fall into the wrong hands.
  • A bank card or other payment system is linked to your personal Odnoklassniki profile.

That is, if your profile contains mainly personal and important information, then it is not recommended to use the function of automatically saving your login and password.

How to save passwords

Modern browsers have a built-in feature that saves passwords automatically. It should be noted that all personal data of users is stored in a special encrypted file.

However, only the directory has access to this file. This function is used by people who write down credentials on pieces of paper and cannot remember what they indicated when entering a social network or some web portal.

How Chrome handles passwords

The way Chrome handles passwords depends on whether you want to sync them across devices.

Note: If you're signed into Chrome, the browser won't prompt you to save a password for the Google Account you're using.

Automatic generation of passwords for websites
