Annoying list of 'Sessions' in Workspace drop down.

Hi, if I remember correctly I had the same after testing a bug report and crash Vivaldi.
This break the last session file and Vivaldi load a backup file and mess up the order and moves tabs into individual workspaces.
Not nice but you don´t loose tabs.
Rename the workspaces with 0 tabs as you like and move tabs from other workspaces as you like.Cheers, mib

@mib2berlin said in Annoying list of 'Sessions' in Workspace drop down.:
Windows key+Shift+S to open the Snipping Tool
Slightly off topic but Radeon Software also use that shortcut by default
Btw I prefer the Full Snipping Tool via button ^^ -
mib2berlin - yeah, that was what I was experiencing. Tabs seemingly moving where they wanted to and then back to back crashes. But I went ahead and deleted those 'sessions' from the workspaces lists, and so far so good. Maybe just a fluke specific to that moment I updated. I'm not happy about the excessive load time Vivaldi now takes to o pen and pings my computer at 100%CPU for quite a long time. I only updated because this version was said to be faster, but that is not my experience.

Hi, the change influence open new windows faster, it should not make Vivaldi slower.
A user report a new Chromium default feature can slowdown Vivaldi, check:
https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/90809/one-word-turn-off-efficiency-modeIf you set up now save your state as session with workspaces.
There is a new experimental feature called Autosave Sessions.
Open vivaldi://experiments/ and enable Session Panel.
A new Session icon appear in the UI editor, move it to the panel bar.
Some user report it work fine but keep in mind it is still experimental.
I use the snapshot (Beta) build all day, there all is experimental.
As Windows user you are a Beta tester anyway.Cheers, mib

@mib2berlin yeah, I've had sessions button on my address bar for some time now and have always liked it. Vivaldi a little clunkier than others, but fast enough. The only thing I did was update. No background apps running, just Vivaldi. No extensions, no extra security. I just closed Vivaldi and timed it: it took 27 seconds for the white screen to disappear. My CPU shot up to 100% and it took forever for any pages to load. CPU didn't return to normal for about 2 minutes. Had to use task manager to close the program.
-
Yup, just tried this again and CPU is still maxed out. I've got "open with last session" enabled, 1 window 3 workspaces 64 tabs total.
CPU still maxed.
Once everything loads up it works fine and dandy. The slow loading time.......
(CPU just finally went down, and I type slow, so it;s been over 3 minutes?)
........seems like an annoyance that I can deal with, but I would rather not.
-
I'm going to disable Sessions and see if that makes any difference

Hi again, did you check the link above?
I test Vivaldi in a virtual machine with Windows 10 at moment and it start in 5 seconds, on my Windows 11 install it start even faster.
Can you check the internal task manager if one tab cause this? Open it with Shift+Esc.
I have 4 workspaces with 120 tabs at moment.
Something is blocking Vivaldi on your system, try the command line switch.Cheers, mib
-
oh wow - this is weird - Literally HUNDREDS of pages are coming up in task manager, but I only have 67 tabs open.
-
What am I going to loose if I disable Sessions, just those sessions?
-
@jaunny Not too much. Any single tab (of all workspaces), extension, webpanel take a process.
-
No, I mean hundreds of TABS are coming up Task Manager, not just the processes. Tabs that I have long since closed, not just the 67 currently open.
-
Do you have lazy load restored tabs disabled in Settings General?
Just a small test as mentioned with 120 tabs.
-
Yes, disabled. Should I change that?
-
Panels are lazy load, pages are not. But like I said, I hadn't changed any settings or anything, just updated.
-
@jaunny
Yes, enable it.
If you start Vivaldi with disabled lazy loading it load all tabs and sub tabs.
I forgot to enable it and it takes 10 Minutes to open Vivaldi with 400 tabs and take all of my 16 GB Ram, annoying.
It is enabled by default.Cheers, mib
-
Well, previously there was some kind of an issue that was corrected by disabling it, and that was working perfectly fine until I updated. Someone else having issues with this update said "if it ain't broke don't try to fix it". I should have adhered to that adage.
-
but I'll do that mib2berlin. Thank's for sticking around to offer suggestions
-
mib2berlin Yup,that seems to solve the issue! Good Job, I never would have come to that. Thanks for all you do
