I am frustrated, can't reporte any issue, my Vivaldi works fast and stable
Same here - I guess we're just the lucky ones
I have observed in the different posts, that many of the reported problems are due to, apart from an incorrect configuration of Vivaldi or / and the OS, that not all Chrome Store extensions are 100% compatible with Vivaldi and can cause conflicts.
Perhaps a Vivaldi own app store is desirable for the futureLaptop Lenovo V145 15AST, AMD A9- 9425 Radeon R5 - 5 cores 3,1 GHz RAM 8Gb, GPU 2+1 Gb SSD 256Gb -Win10 64 v21H2| Vivaldi last stable| Blog | 👉Vivaldi links👈

Perhaps. But it's early days yet...

Just updated, screen went blank, headings all show but blank screen only. WTF happened........And,How can I export my bookmarks to Opera?
-
My biggest problem is the way it keeps refreshing pages. Can be a real nightmare in some situations.
-
My biggest problem is the cache is broken.
I can't use Vivaldi to develop Web sites, because it never allows me to see changes I made. Old code gets caught in the cache and is seemingly permanent, even after I restart the browser. Other browsers based on Chrome view the pages fine.

What's up with this? It's keeping me from fully employing Ancestry.com. "It looks like you have local storage disabled.
-
@johnhwatson That's hard to say. The error is not present here. Do you have any kind of blocking on? Do you have all cookies allowed?
-
Browser crashes many times. It just turns off strangely. Also, it refuses to start from where I stopped even after I have set it up in the settings to open from where I stopped last. This is a major problem because after a crash, I have to open every single page again

@AbelOkojunu
Hi as Vivaldi actually never crash for me on Linux and Windows it could be you profile is broken or an extension cause this. Forget last pages does not happen for me, I use Last Session in "Start up with".
Check setting "Save Browsing History" in vivaldi://settings/privacy/
Some cleaning software makes problems, check or better delete it.

@jacekn: It's exactly why I didn't like Vivaldi back when it came out. I tried it again recently and was more than pleasantly surprised. Can anyone who has been on board all along tell me how it went from that to what we have now? And does anyone still feel like Vivaldi is too slow on their computer?
-
@Gomizilla Been on board non-stop from 28 Jan 2015 to the present. There has been no particular overnight change that simply "fixed" Vivaldi. Rather, the developers have steadily been addressing one issue after another, and it has steadily improved, week over week.

Vivaldi stalls downloads at 100% anyone else has this problem? few articles said it was Bitdefender messing with it but I uninstalled it to be sure and it still does it. it stalls at 100% until its at low download rate then finishes.

@thegamingskitz
Hi, I don´t have the issue but iirc you have to disable "open download
panel automatically" in vivaldi://settings/downloads/
It is a workaround until it is fixed.
Is this on WIndows 7? I guess they stop the support for it at some point anyway.Cheers, mib
-
Windows 10. Disabling the download panel fixes it?
-
@thegamingskitz That has been reported. Disabling the "automatic" download panel.
-
Idk whats causing it in windows 10. I just know other people said its bitdefender doing it somehow. Why would the automatic download panel be causing it
-
@thegamingskitz If I knew that, I would be developer.

I tried the link and it is dead. https://help.vivaldi.com/article/user-agent-spoofing/
You really should update your links?
Thanks -
@vavud , naturally it is now a 404, because it is obsolete. Dating back to the time when Vivaldi still had its name on the UA, which is no longer the case for quite some time, Vivaldi now has the exact same UA as Chrome, making a UA switcher obsolete.
If there is any blockage, it is due to other Browsersniffing methods not related to the UA. -
@catweazle
Thank you for your prompt reply. Much appreciated. I tried it on my other computer and it worked.
I will have to try and work out why not on my main PC.Regards
