Windows 10: Unable to browse with Chrome/Vivaldi after upgrade to Win 10 1803

Since I upgraded to 1803 this morning, both chrome and vivaldi stop being able to reach most websites quickly after signing in (the first one or two attempts work). Sites that do not use https seem to remain accessible, though at very slow speed. It also may be related to variable duration freezes of the entire system.
I've tried searching for solutions on my own, but I've been having inceasing difficulties finding relevant solutions to issues I experience.

Which Browser do you Prefer?

I'm surprised Vivaldi isn't on the list, that browser is one of the most customizable and beautiful browsers out there. It runs fast and has all the extensions that Chrome uses. I love Vivaldi and thoroughly enjoy browsing Twitch on it.

 

Win 10: Google Chrome and Firefox browser unable to launch / crash in the midst of browsing

Hi,

Thank you for Win 10. It is free, fast and beautiful.

So far the MS Edge browser can work very well with this OS.

Other popular browser such as Google Chrome and Firefox have a lot of problems.

Just list it down for easy reference:

1. Google Chrome could not be launch. Upon clicking the button at the task bar, there is no response.

I tried to uninstall and reinstall it back from a fresh download, the Win 10 crashed (blue Screen phenomena). I need to use system restore to get it back.

2. Firefox was working well initially, however the Java Plug in and flash player plug in frequently crash in the midst of browsing. subsequently the browser crashed. Today I could not launch this application.

There is no issue of these two browser under Win XP (Pro) Win 7, Win 8, Win 8.1.

May I know how to fix this issue? Will I risk crashing my Win 10 OS again?

Thanks

 

Vivaldi

I won't use chrome or opera chrome version. I'm still on opera presto!


For me install location is C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Vivaldi\Application\vivaldi.exe - don't know why. Perhaps that's where I put it.

You would only need to run the installer as admin - not the browser. I note that you seem to be having issues with a few browsers"

Haven't used it much. Used it on Windows 7 for a while. Only been using it on windows 10 for a couple of weeks.

Chrome extensions can be installed.









It also has Window Panel which lets you:

• Drag tabs to change their order.
• Group tabs by topic to save space.
• Tile Tab Stacks to compare several web pages side by side.
• Hibernate unused tabs or Tab Stacks for better performance.
• Pin tabs to ensure they always stay open.
• Mute sound in specific tabs.
