Solved Sign in with Google dialog keeps popping up
-
Found this error today as well if that helps

Hello, Guys,
as I suffer from persistent Google login messages as well, I have tried to observe the behaviour and had the ErrorLog / EventLog open seeing the entries just when the Google login window opened again. Maybe there is a helpful information to trace the issue:My Setup:
- A private and a business Laptop, both running WIN10 with latest Vivaldi stable version.
** Full installation on private laptop
** Portable (standalone) storage on business laptop - Both Vivaldi instances run my four private (IMAP) email accounts: GMX, Arcor, p..0(at)gmail.com, c...e(at)gmail.com
** Google Calender is connected only to p..0(at)gmail.com - Vivaldi on business laptop pops up google login dialog several times a day...
** only for p...0(at)gmail.com but not for c...e(at)gmail.com!
** typically when network connection is/was (even shortly <1sek) interrupted - Vivaldi on private laptop works without pop ups!
Recent event few minutes ago:
- Working on business laptop at home having a super stable wifi and internet connection. Vivaldi application open in one window, the DevTools Log window in 'console' mode open and visible in another window, I am actively working with another app.
- In the DevTools Log Window these messages poped up:
- a fraction of a second later the known Google login dialog poped up.
- and an error message in the mail workspace showed up:
In the DevTools log window the showed (collapsed) messages can be enlarged. The information doesn't look very helpful to me but is available on request.
HTH

I see that this issue has been marked as "Solved" but I see no resolution and I am still having the pop-up sign-in request for Yahoo email. I have Vivaldi, Yahoo, Gmail, & Live, email accounts. Only the Yahoo account keeps popping up.

@PorkyRay Have you removed the Yahoo account from the mail client and added it back in?
Note that if you are using OAuth, if the account's main password is changed, the change automatically invalidates any OAuth token used for the account, in which a new login will establish a new token.
If the Yahoo account is not brand new, you can go into the security settings and set up an app password that can also be used, instead of OAuth.

@edwardp I had previously removed the Yahoo mail accounts (I have two) and put them back in but it made no difference. I just followed your suggestion of creating an app specific password, following the steps at https://help.yahoo.com/kb/account/generate-manage-third-party-passwords-sln15241.html . Now, we shall wait to see if I continue to get the dreaded sign in prompt! Thank you, very much!!!

@edwardp - apparently, the app specific password solution is working! Thank you, very much!
-
@PorkyRay Glad to read that solution works.
-
My solution is to use another browser. I have had this problem for too long.
I just gave up.

May be this also works for others: gmail usually ignores dots in the email address, but if you create a gmail account in vivaldi make sure you use the exact naming of your gmail account. It solved my recurring popups! Optionally you can add aliases with more or less dots.
