@DoctorG
sorry. I use Google translate.

On the startup screen after installing Vivaldi, if I select Import Chrome Browser and press Start Import, the browser closes.
I tried several times but it was the same, so I skipped and did the initial settings,
then selected "Import from an application or file" and selected Chrome and ran it, but the browser also closed the moment I pressed it.
There was no error code or anything displayed, the browser just closed.
Even if I reopened it, the import was not completed and I had to start over.

I tried:

• Uninstalled and reinstalled Vivaldi
• Restarted the PC
• Created another profile

Is there any solution?

@Elekiz Crash with Import from Chrome is known.

Which data do you need from Chrome?

@Elekiz
Hi, work fine for me in a clean profile.
We had a bug with import but this was fixed long time ago, I guess you use Vivaldi 7.0 from vivaldi.com?

@DoctorG
Is this Windows only?

[Elekiz]

@DoctorG Thanks for your reply.
The data I want to import from Chrome is
all of my history, bookmarks, passwords, and extensions.

@mib2berlin Hi!
Yes, I downloaded it from the official Vivaldi page!
It was "Vivaldi.7.0.3495.23.x64".
Is this an old version?

No, it is the latest.

@mib2berlin Import from Chrome and Chromium fails on Win 11.

@Elekiz
You can export bookmarks and passwords in Chrome and import it in Vivaldi.
I tested to copy the history files over and this work but I am not sure if this work for extensions.
I have to test this.

EDIT: Extension cant be copied.

@mib2berlin @DoctorG
As instructed,
I checked bookmarks, passwords, and history individually and ran it, and it synced successfully!
I got the same error only with extensions, but that might be because the extensions I've installed aren't compatible.

Thank you both so much for your help!
I'm going to make Vivaldi my default browser and enjoy it!
