@smeeding2535 I'm not aware that there is any such thing as newenginevivaldi or New Enginevivaldi. When you add a new search engine to Vivaldi, you are supposed to replace "New Engine" with the search engine data that applies to the search engine you are adding.

Vivaldi does not have a search engine, and there is no search engine named Vivaldi. So what you have created appears to be a completely fictitious setting which cannot work.

yes it was only the tabs that were frozen, I was unable to switch tabs, the only way to access the other tabs was by closing the current tab that I was on.
I upgraded to version 5.1.2567.73 (Stable channel) (64-bit) and can't reproduce the issue yet, so hopefully it solved itself! 🤞

@kgash I went back to settings and set the tab to open a custom page (www.google.com) and this seemed to fix the problem. I'm not sure if fixed the root cause of the problem but it works.
Thanks again.

@pesala As always, you were able to provide me with the answer I was looking for, once I unchecked that box it went away. To be honest I didn't even know that option was available, now that I know it is I'll probably find myself using it in the future. Thanks so much, please stay safe !!

It does! That setting must not have been synced to the new computer.
All good now! Thanks.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Yes, that is exactly what happened.

I had pinned the video conference site to my browser and forgot all about it. Stupid me!

Nice job - Thanks again.

@hskimpole Works with Vivaldi here. That indicates your problem is local to you. There is something about your location or system blocking login. This can be 3rd party "security" software which does not recognize Vivaldi and so interferes with its communication using certain protocols.

@kareem79

I do run into the very same issue all the time.

This is the modal I'm referring to. When I switch tabs, before the download is finished, this modal will not be shown to me, and the DL get stuck at 99% with no chance to get it out of the loop.

@ender85 Confirmed.

Please see How to Report a Bug.

@d20ryan Make a step-by-step guide how to reproduce the issue and I can have a look, so that you can make a good reproducible bug report when that time comes.

Edit: Sorry, it refuses any disposable email I throw at it, and I can't bother with creating a regular email.

@maple38 , have you activated the Crypto Tokens in the privacy settings in Vivaldi?, Without this Google sites don't work
If it isn't the cause, try in a guest profile to rule out the extensions as cause of this issue.

@zujouris You have disabled components needed for Google Sign-in.

@harshapeace Hi - uncheck this option, restart browser 🙂

You don't need this setting, also it's not enabled by default.

Maybe if you look at the domains of the saved cookies then you would know what those other sites are.

Thank you very much. I will look into the different solutions proposed.

So sorry for the delay in replying! I believe the png and jpg are both 24 bit images.

I am no longer certain that this is exactly the issue. My background image seems to randomly stop working using either jpg or png, and opening up the settings and changing the image to the other file type fixes it, at least for a random amount of time.

Both images were derived from the same image, but I opened the image in paint.net and saved it as a different file type.

As of now, I cannot consistently reproduce the failure to load the image. Previously one file type always loaded, and the other didn't (png and jpg respectively). Now the results seem to be inconsistent.

Thank you for your reply. Sorry I can't be more precise.
