A few tips before posting:
If sync is not working, first log out and log in again.
If that doesn't do the trick then please submit a bug report with the following information:
username of the account you tried to sync,
error message shown (if any),
a screenshot of vivaldi://sync-internals and the Sync settings page on vivaldi://settings/sync/ can help or
click on Dump Status on vivaldi://sync-internals and send us the content that appears in a small box below the button,
time when it happened,
detailed steps to reproduce the issue.
In case you create a topic about your issue, please also share the VB number you receive via email here so we can quickly follow it up.
I've started getting this issue regularly again.
One of my work laptops keeps on getting stuck with "clashes with another client" in the sync upload. When I log out and log in again, there will be old duplicates of notes I cleared months ago.
I recently cleared the data and re-connect all 9 devices... but annoyingly it's started again after only a few days. Having to continually scan my notes and bookmarks for duplicates and then look through all of them to determine which is the current version (dates and titles stay the same) is a real pain in the backside!
@Ayespy and @mib2berlin, thanks. It helps me to develop a strategy . Only have a dual boot Windows and Linux desktop, and a Windows 10 laptop. I dare not think of more, although I am tempted to build a small separate Linux box.
Working again on the latest Snapshot. I hope the fix lasts a bit longer than it did the last time. I do not rely on sync, but it is still nice if it is working.
I went through the synchronizing process as Vivaldi Support Team told me.
But the synchronizing process was not done.
In our country, synchronized personal data can be checked by individuals and downloaded...
always~ always~ always~ always~always~
This is because the sync file is linked to a personal Webhard linked to e-mail.
So, Vivaldi is uncomfortable.
Especially, do you understand that I can't see my important information?
If Vi~ have the option to automatically create a backup? Wouldn't that be nice?
Really... I was stupid. The illusion that it would be good to sync.
I can only sigh now because of my lost data.
Now Vivaldi is only going to do simple web surfing.
I felt comfortable with Vivaldi until he had a problem.
@ineuw said in Clicking on Sync encryption field closes Vivaldi :
#fill-on-account-select
I can only speak for 3.2.1558.x internal version, but i use this flag always as on and never got such crash.
@scrutinizer We were just helping a new user to the thread with their issue.
You should try contacting support. I have seen some people have success with fixing their sync issues that way.

I figured out what is happening...Every time I "Delete Browsing Data" and select "All" it happens! It says so right there, next to the "Passwords" option -- "including your Sync password".
I'll quit deleting the passowrds, and Vivaldi should stop "forgetting" my Sync password!
I'd think the Sync password would be separate from the other web login passwords, but apparently not!

Hi, if you want to use Vivaldi sync yes.
You also need different e-mail recovery addresses.
There was a plan to create only sync accounts but never heard any news about.
Cheers, mib
