    Hello mijou​! 👋

    I'm sorry that 1Password isn't working in Opera Browser. While Opera isn't officially supported, and it sounds like 1Password is working as expected in supported browsers like Chrome and Firefox, I'll help as much as possible. 

    First, can you remove and then re-add Opera to the 1Password for Windows desktop app: Connect additional browsers to the 1Password app

    Then, restart your Windows PC. If that still doesn't work then, when you right-click on 1Password in Opera and click Settings, do you see a green dot in the browser settings page? Or a different coloured dot and an error message?

Hey!

Its working - if you haven't tried on Windows + Opera!
I just wanted to check on older community posts (+1 year) to see if there is an update to 1Password/Opera/Windows and before I just tried it out via Settings. 
Either way - unlock 1Password in app or browser plugin - it unlocks either way.

Latest versions of 1Password, Opera, Plugin, Windows.

  1. Open 1Password app
  2. Go to Settings > Browser > Connect to additional browser > klick "Add Browser". A File-Window will open. Now navigate to installation Path of Opera or see 3.
  3. Locate your Install Path of Opera 
    1. Right Click on Opera Logo and click "Properties"
    2. Copy the path of General/Location or Shortcut/Target
    3. Insert it in the File-Window and klick "Open"
  4. Opera should now be added into the list. Try to Lock/Unlock 1Password via App or Browser Extension. It will/should lock/unlock either way.

I might have missed this update feature before. Finally Opera + 1Password works again as I was using it +15 years :-)

Thanks 1Password developers for this feature finally added to 1Password on Windows :-)
