drag drop image out onto explorer folder breaks tab
-
Something borked in Vivaldi.. I can no longer drag drop an image out of tab to save it onto a folder... ie the saving works.. but when I go back that tab is broken I can't click on anything and can't drag/drop any more images out of it.
Any other browser and this works fine, this used to work fine in Vivaldi.. no with the newer version something has regressed and this functionality is broken.
Its really annoying, because even if you refresh the tab, it's still broken, have to close the tab and open another new tab at the same page url.. then it will break again if an image is dragged out of it.
Happens on anything page url with any image.

@Koolio Hello I just tested this on for example https://www.nrk.no and it worked fine.
Please give a concrete example on where it doesn't work.
Also go through the troubleshooting tips including testing in a clean profile and disabling all extensions:

@Koolio If I do it twice with the same image I get the following dialog:
Which is expected and it works otherwise.
Please go through the troubleshooting first.

I have the same issue. And I see it already a couple of months. When I drag the url from the address bar or an image from the page - the page hangs, I cannot interact with it until I kill its process. It happens not in 100% cases, but quite often.

Same issue for me, I'm now using newest Vivaldi, 4.0.2312.38 64-bit, and this issue never happens in Edge, Chrome and early version Vivaldi.
It's usually occurs when drag'n'drop lock icon on address bar into Windows folder to create .url shortcut file, and drag'n'drop to download images.
When this issue happens, Vivaldi user interface freezes, and the webpage scrollbar lost control, unstoppably going down!
I have to close Vivaldi and re-launch it to back to normal!
I tried uninstall and reinstall Vivaldi, remove all extension, and reset settings to factory default, but didn't work. The issue just exists after I reinstall Vivaldi.
Another issue is that drag'n'drop lock icon to create .url shortcut, in normal mode, filename is same with webpage title.
But in incognito mode, filename is extracted webpage URL.
For example: "vivaldi.com" with "https://vivaldi.com/zh-hant/download/".
I'm now using this extension: "Save as Shortcut", as the alternative solution.
The extension developer recommends that create shortcuts with .html format, because .url format is now marked unsafe by Google Chrome and Windows. It seems to me that newer version Vivaldi may follow that strategy for better security. -
@koolio i have exactly the same problem. who knows the solution?

@koolio
Any luck resolving the issue?
I have the exact same problem, I've tried using a guest profile but dragging an image to explorer still freeze the tab for me like 9 out of 10 times -
I have this exact issue on latest vivaldi (5.6.2867.40)
I haven't been able to find a fix unfortunately but right click > save as works fine in the meantime. Just a bit more inconvenient
