So, I installed Vivaldi with high hopes, but was ultimately annoyed. Not by the browser itself, but by what it did to my computer. I mainly used Google Chrome, and I saw that Vivaldi was a bit more complex, and I liked that; so I gave it a try. I was very pleased when using it, but then I tried to open up Chrome again, because I wanted to upload something for school, and I could only access it on Chrome. That’s when things starting getting annoying; Chrome will now refuse to open. I have uninstalled it and re-installed it, and it doesn’t fix the problem. I tried restarting my computer, and that didn’t work either. By this time I knew it must of been Vivaldi that was causing this, because it Chrome worked perfectly fine before I downloaded Vivaldi. So I then tried to uninstall Vivaldi, the only problem is: it doesn’t let me uninstall it. Oddly enough, after around 30 minutes of no feedback, it finally uninstalled. This has been around 45 minutes of troubleshooting, but after all of this, I still don’t hate your browser. Even though I will most likely never use it again, I would recommend it to someone, and hope that this problem is isolated to me. I really enjoyed the layout of the browser. I loved how it showed you your internet speed. This browser is very well made, it’s just that I had such an annoying problem with it. I still don’t have Chrome fully working yet. I recommend this browser to anyone looking for a more complicated browser, but be careful, because you might end up like me.
Thank you for reading this.
Strange, I have Chrome, Vivaldi, Opera (37 and 12) and Firefox on this machine … there must be something more going on here. Though I understand if you think it isn’t worth the trouble.
I have to agree with sgunhouse, that Vivaldi is not the issue.
I also have Chrome (hate it), Vivaldi, Opera, FF, and SeaMonkey and have had no issues with the three Chromium browsers or the two Mozilla browsers affecting any other’s operation.
Now you mention:

I have friends that have issues with kind of thing. They work from home, for some reason they can only tunnel into their work with Chrome (!??!) and they are constantly having browser issues (Chrome). They do not use any other Chromium browsers.
