Why does it freeze?
-
General rule is disabling ALL extensions, none excluded, and see if the problem persists. If at that point the problem doesn't occur, enable only one extension at a time to find out which is causing troubles.

@cooked It sounds as though there is content in a single tab which is incompatible with your setup. If you were to delete all the files related to "session" or to "tabs" in your profile, it's possible it would suddenly come up working fine.

Same problem here.
Vivaldi (1.11.917.43) suddenly freezes. This also happend with Version 1.10 and 1.9.
Only when I start the Windows task manager Vivaldi comes to life again as soon as the currently running programms are shown there.
System: Windows 10 64-bit.Thank you in advance for every answer!
(By the way: How can I get the 2 reputations necessary to post again in this community in less than 560 seconds?)

@Gwen-Dragon: Thank you, you are the best!

@albinoni For clarity sake, are you saying that with a frozen Vivaldi on-screen, as soon as you focus and start up Windows Task Manager, Vivaldi starts running again? Have you been able to repeat that "remedy" on more than one occasion?

@ayespy
I guess the problem has gone away. I removed a few extensions that weren't doing much for me (Xmarks, which I don't need, Google input tools, and another one I forgot the name of), running great now.
I didn't disable them to see if they were causing the problem though, so can't help there.
Great browser. -
@blackbird: Exactly. And I have been able to repeat that.

During a Vivaldi freeze, if you open some other program besides Task Manager, does Vivaldi unfreeze? I'm wondering if it's simply a shift in program-opening focus or something unique to what Task Manager does upon its opening that is unfreezing Vivaldi.

@Blackbird: I tried it with starting MS Word. It worked, feezing was stoppt.

I suggest reporting a freezing bug at: https://vivaldi.com/bugreport/ and mention that a frozen Vivaldi un-freezes on your system whenever you shift focus to another program. It may supply a useful piece to a larger freezing puzzle.
