    @yngve @luetage Thank you, I guess I'll have to live with it for now, I can use the unicode alternative when I'm in a german collectors forum. There is a new EasyOS on it's way soon, that may change the situation. I wish all of you a nice summer holiday.

    @UteBorsch Das freut mich, dass es auch uns Oldies (>60) und Nicht-IT-Menschen gelingt, den Vivaldi auf Linux laufen zu lassen. Das Lob liest das Vivaldi-Team gerne und freut sich über deine positive Rückmeldung.

    @alan9990 said in Encryption password not working: This morning your sync server was down, causing Vivaldi to open to a default new tab with all of my previous session gone. Not for me on Vivaldi 7.5.3735.47. I have 2 separate backup copies of my encryption password I hope you do not mix up the very long encryption key (saved on Sync login tab with Save Backup Encryption Key) and the encryption password you had set when Sync happened, used to decrypt locally the synced profile data.

    @Omnimaxus The report is not even confirmed in the bug tracker and such graphical glitches get mostly low priority. Vivaldi also works just fine with dark tile bar.

    @iamkarlson said in Some websites raises JS errors and don't work even with all extensions disabled and disabled ad blocker: Oh! That actually worked! Nice! And no, you should not need to create a new profile: with “soft reset” I just meant to delete all browser data (Extras -> Delete Browser Data) from "All time" and everything EXCEPT "Sync password & Passwords" after you did the temp profile thingy, delete brosing data and then restart the browser everything should be fine again. So with that you won't lose settings or anything and you don't need to create a new profile either. If it still occurs, just reload the Vivaldi Binary / Package again, like a reinstallation, but this also should not affect your existing profile & settings. But I think temp profile, purge browsing data, restart should be enough already, at least that fixed it for me too. Glad if this helps in your case too! Fingers crossed!

    Thank you both of you, Impetuous and in a hurry, I went ahead and copied the entire vivaldi folder over., before I read your two responses. It worked with one hiccup--I lost the only two passwords that I had saved, both for email accounts. I had to reset these--no problem. If I had followed DoctorG's advice, It probably would have gone perfectly. Perfect is an absolute. Something is perfect or it isn't. There are not normally degrees of perfection. But in this case, I can break rules. The migration went mostly perfectly.

    HTML source of page: <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en-GB"> Page identifies itself as language en-GB. But Vivaldi's Chromium core can not detect language, it is undefined as i see in vivaldi:translate-internals/#detection-logs [image: 1751811529751-60b1bd4d-6636-48be-8a9b-34476360b18c-image.png]

    @luetage said in KeePassXC Extension cannot connect to db: Keepassxc should work with it. I think I may have acquired it with the appimage installation (using Gear Lever). Since the appimage did not work for me I uninstalled it, and seemingly the snapshot version too, although an app menu entry remains. The latter also showed up in the "Edit menu", so I deleted it, but the entry remains. So I guess that a reboot will clear that – I have not ried that yet.

    I would love to see this bug fixed also. At the moment, I have a custom command to switch to either light or dark themes. It works okay, but it needs to be done manually.

    As the effect is only on Debian 12.11 KDE Wayland/X11 i ignore these rendering issues as long as websites work. I let this thread open. Perhaps a Windows+Linux user knows more to tell me how to fix the rendering issue on VBox.

    @Pathduck Yea I knew they were stored somewhere else otherwise just deleting profile1, profile2, etc... would do the trick. Seems to be a mechanism to protect the profiles. Which is find. I cn completely understand why. I've been using sudo pacman -Rdd vivaldi or vivaldi-snapshot then just reinstalling like it was never installed in the first place. As for passwords we both use Proton Pass. Been working like a charm.

    Thanks for your suggestion. When I tried just now, a few hours later, after deleting all Paypal cookies, I was presented with a different login screen (email, password, text message) that worked. It's all good now. Thanks again for taking the time to answer.
