Double install ?

[skatanax]

@gwen-dragon Here you go

[skatanax]

@gwen-dragon Yep And I don't want to reinstall and reconfigure my whole Vivaldi :3
It's not a really annoying bug (it's just an icon every update), but I'm curious of understanding it.

[skatanax]

@gwen-dragon Nope, just one. But it's weird. It comes from another disk and from a "Portable Vivaldi" folder that I can't delete because it's in use. Dafuk.

You can do an uninstall without removing user data. Then make sure Vivaldi is cleared from C:\Users\antoi\AppData\Local\Vivaldi\Application\

@pathduck This portable version on my D : disk could be the culprit (I just remembered install it like a year ago). But I don't know how to uninstall it

[Pathduck]

@skatanax Haha, that makes sense

Btw you mean D: and not

For portable installs you can just delete the folder.

After delete also open Task Manager and check for tasks named "Vivaldiupdatecheck" pointing to the portable installation.

@pathduck Edited :p
That the thing : I can't. It says a file is in use in the folder (I don't know where, only my normal Vivaldi is on and even close I have the same message).

Edit : killing the Vivaldiupdater worked, I deleted the portable version. Wait and see the next update if I still have the icon issue, but I guess it's ok. Thanks for the quick help, I'm dumb

@gwen-dragon Too late ?

[Pathduck]

@skatanax OK it should be fine doing it the brute force way too, no worries

Just to make sure open Task Scheduler and check if you have a task pointing to the now removed d:\ portable Vivaldi. I think with 3.8 it started creating tasks. It shouldn't matter much but a good idea to clean it up.

@pathduck Nope, nothing Vivaldi to see here.
