Fixes for recent Windows issues – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 2741.3
-
I'm guessing the new big buttons are "Windows 11 style", and someone/something is assuming everyone uses that now. The older buttons were "Windows 10 style", which may not suit everyone, but at least could be customized.
Old and new:

thats how i read it - that someone/something needs to rethink imo - if users want windows 11 style then fine - create it with a css mod or allow mods to the new style

WHY?
This question i am not able to answer, lack of information.
-
@fahrenheit451: I just downloaded the snapshot and the copy/paste in the debugging tools are fixed. If this is what you were referring to.
-
Is there a Vivaldi error log? Since 2 or 3 snapshots I'm noticing non-reproducable crashes on web pages like spiegel.de oder spektrum.de.

@O_Love See

https://help.vivaldi.com/desktop/troubleshoot/reporting-crashes-on-windows/Does the tab crash (dead bird) or complete Vivaldi? Is that with videos or which content?
Please check Troubleshooting issues. -
Thanks, found the logs and reported the crash (only web page, not the whole browser).
I will do the same from my private PC. There is another crash on Disney+ after around 1.5 hours video play time. This one is reproducible.

another Friday is on step......
another Friday is coming......
another Friday...... -
All good but what about the mail filtering? Do I have to find another mail client?
-
Geee! I was so scared that friday came earlier!
But it wasn't. Yet. -
@Gif2D Install on Windows 7 the Service Pack 1
and
enable TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 in your old Windows!
-
@DoctorG But my old windows serve their master well…
LE: Didn't find TLS 1.3, and TLS 1.2 was enabled…
-
@Gif2D Why do you have SSL 2.0 and 3.0 active?
Do you have KB3140245 installed?
Some more about TLS at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/update-to-enable-tls-1-1-and-tls-1-2-as-default-secure-protocols-in-winhttp-in-windows-c4bd73d2-31d7-761e-0178-11268bb10392And perhaps your Windows root ca certificates which sign Lets Encrypt certificates are not up to date.
ISRG Root X1
DST Root CA X3 -
- SSL 2.0 and SSL 3.0 are left active since installation, maybe…
- Yes, KB3140245 is installed.
- Oh, I'll check Certification chain too…
-
@Gif2D The update server certificate changed Jul 28 05:49:58 2022 GMT.
I do not know if your Window caches certificates. -
@Gif2D said in Fixes for recent Windows issues – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 2741.3:
SSL 2.0 and SSL 3.0
Disable, they are useless these days.
And i asked a Vivaldi server admin, he said that on Win 7 the program winsparkle is used as updater and this uses Windows TLS settings and SSL certificates from Windows system certificates. And updates work on Win 7.
Perhaps some security tool on your side creates these disturbances?
-
@Gif2D At least according to the information I find on the internet,
Internet connection error 12157
means that "The application experienced an internal error loading the SSL libraries.".As far as I know, our
update.vivaldi.com
domain should work fine from Windows 7 as long as TLS 1.2 is enabled.If it doesn't work despite TLS 1.2 being enabled in your internet settings then I'm not sure what the problem could be, but I'm hoping we can figure it out.
I'd be curious to know if you are able to open https://update.vivaldi.com/update/1.0/win/appcast.x64.xml in Internet Explorer, and if not, perhaps there is a more usable error message there.

@thomasp It did open, the result is below:
This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it.

For a complete story, the error above was displayed just once, not on a regular basis.

@Gif2D Obviously, you simply need a proper Antarctic Solution...

@guigirl as tempting as it might be, I'm not jumping yet to Linux.
