Not crashing here. Are you using any extensions?

turned off all extensions → restarted browser → chrome://settings/passwords → clicked on eye to show passwords → Windows user password dialogue appears, entered my password → clicked OK → Vivaldi crashed

problem persists

My rig: W7 Ultimate x64, 48 GB RAM, Xeon X5675, got adequate amount of free space on drives. Filesystem is OK.

Resetted flags to default, result is same…

PS: Only this flags were enabled by me:
vivaldi://flags/#enable-site-per-process
vivaldi://flags/#enable-quic
vivaldi://flags/#save-page-as-mhtml

@Gwen-Dragon

site-per-process is known causing some problems on Chromium browsers.

Yes, but it is an important security measure in era of spectre and meltdown.

You should test without any extensions!

I did that without extensions. I mean before I disabled everything I had only those 4 flags manually enabled, but when I tested, I resetted them to default beforehand.

Try to start vivaldi with a temporary clean profile
C:\Vivaldi\Application\vivaldi.exe --user-data-dir="%TEMP%\VIVTEMP"
Login to a page
Store the password
Open chrome internal password page
Show the password with the click on eye
Does that crash?

It actually does.

Update:

This problem also occurs on Vivaldi 1.15.1147.32, Chrome 65.0.3325.181, SRWare Iron 65.0.3400.0.

I've managed to view my passwords, but I can't call it a fix:

Before attempting to view hidden passwords, go to Windows user account settings and remove password. Then reveal your desired passwords. After you done, restore your Windows password.

Method sucks, but I can't find nothing better.

PS: tried to reveal saved password on freshly created Windows account, and clean browser. Problem persists.

I can't reproduce the problem on Windows 10 Pro!?

I do NOT have this flag enabled. Causes too many crashes/freezes atm.

Ayespy

@le_bro Can't reproduce this. Works fine on Win10 Home

Sure thing most users can't reproduce this crash. It's rare, but if you search "chrome password crash" you will see: this problem exists for some users for years. Too bad Google developers are ignorant to fix bugs, tending to make new functions instead.
