Problem - Cannot view passwords in Opera. When trying to retrieve a stored password from the privacy settings, you need to enter your computer login details (Microsoft account or whatever your PC username and password is. Opera does not recognise the login and gives the message "To see Opera's stores passwords, please enter your computer password"

Fix - The browser needs updating to version 50 or higher.
1. Click on the Opera button (top left) and then 'About Opera'.
2. You will be told the version number and it will check for updates. If it says that updates are available, go to step 3. If it says 'error checking for updates' go to step 4.
3. Click on the Opera button (top left). A new option will appear to update the Opera browser. Click on this.
4. Do a web search for "Opera download". Find the download link and install it.
5. Restart Opera.
