Solved Many pages crashing 100% of the time

@egrodo Have you tried enabling/disabling the hardware acceleration? Perhaps there's some conflict with system drivers, or a 3rd-party application interfering with the browser. Make sure to perform tests in a clean profile and that the browser is running without any extra command parameters. For more information, please refer to the Troubleshooting issues guide.

@cipollino said in Many pages crashing 100% of the time:

Same problem here with the new update, 64 bit version.
The vivaldi.exe instances start to eat lot of memory, always increasing (no pages open, nstarted in 'safe mode' with --disable-extensions command-line)

The new system does not work (tab switch horizontal) and make the whole system unstable.

Have the exact same problem.
64-Bit version 5.1.2567.39 (Stable channel) (64-bit).
Disabeling Extentions dose not help.

It keeps eating memory till all of my 64 gigs are gone and than crashes.

A new profile seems to fix it for now. but... ye. would want to keep my old one cause everything is there.

An update from me, it seems to have gotten better over the last few days -- now when I try to load the initial gifyourgame website it will still flash black but after a few seconds it lets me use the website as normal. So, progress?

Hi, if you use Vivaldi sync it is easy to get your data back, simply sync your new profile.
If not you can copy most important data from the old profile to the new one, than move the default profile folder "Default" to a save place and rename the new profile to default.
In this page is a list of files you can copy:

Despite it being slightly better, many pages still crash, including Reddit which I use often. This is becoming intolerable and I'll probably have to switch away from Vivaldi if I can't resolve Pls someone tell me how to actually analyze the crash and figure out what's going on..

I'm also just experiencing random parts of pages malfunction, like today I can't load twitter videos (no errors in console, no failed network requests..). And this league of legends site u.gg blackscreens me every time. Tried disabling hardware acceleration, no diff

Hi, did you check: https://help.vivaldi.com/desktop/troubleshoot/reporting-crashes-on-windows/#Submitting_Vivaldi_crash_logs

On Windows crash dumps are created, I am not sure if they are human readable.

@egrodo Is your Windows version N or KN by any chance?

egrodo

@ayespy Windows 10 Pro N, installed from the USB tool

Ayespy

@egrodo Then you also have to install the Windows Media Feature Pack or every time you try to run video, you will crash the page.

egrodo

@ayespy Wow, you know what, I think that actually was the issue. I just fresh installed Windows didn't even know what the N meant and how it would effect browsers. Terribly sorry for insinuating it was an issue with Vivaldi, but super happy I can use it again. #solved
