Vivaldi Sync requires login every time I use Vivaldi
-
Every time I start Vivaldi I get a dialog box warning that there’s something wrong with Vivaldi Sync and I have to login again. This also happens every time I switch from one computer to another if both have Vivaldi open.
In principle it’s not a big deal, I just enter my password, press “Login” and that’s it. It’s just annoying when I have to do it several times a day if I’m using both my desktop and laptop computers!
What should I do, is deleting the remote data and starting afresh really the only way? Anything I could do to prevent that?

I'm also have problems with Sync and passwords and now I'm thinking if this is the cause. Earlier I had used Vivaldi in the PC with Windows.

Hi, you don´t have to start from scratch after deleting remote data nor if you delete your profiles.
Log out,if not already, keep one system log in and delete remote from there > log in again > log in on the other systems.
I have 4 systems with mixed OS and never had this.Cheers, mib

What I did was after logging in I clicked on save/remember password, after this it stayed logged in.

Oh, this might be the reason then. I don’t like my passwords stored and remembered so I usually unselect that option

@SuperOscar The issue solved, hence I will tag the topic as resolved.

Well that’s one way to look at it I certainly wouldn’t say it’s “resolved”, merely that now I know where the bug is so I can try to avoid it.

I have this problem using the latest version of MX Linux. Even though I tick the box to remember password, I still have to enter my password in order to sync every time I open Vivaldi.
any further advice would be appreciated
thanks John -
