Vivaldi is a popular web browser, but recently many users reported issues with it. According to them, it seems Vivaldi is not loading pages at all.

This can be a big problem since you won’t be able to browse the web at all with this software, so it’s important to fix this issue as soon as possible.

Luckily, there are multiple methods that you can use to fix this problem, and in today’s guide, we’re going to show you the best ways to fix this issue.

Why is Vivaldi not loading pages?

This issue occurs if your user profile is damaged or corrupted, so recreating it might be the best way to fix the problem. Another cause can be your extensions, so make sure to disable all the problematic ones.

Certain settings and Windows features can also prevent pages from loading, and to learn which settings you need to disable to fix this, be sure to keep on reading.

What do I do if Vivaldi is not loading pages?

1. Recreate your Vivaldi profile

In the address bar type: vivaldi://version

Now check the Profile path value.

Now press Windows key + R and enter %localappdata%\Vivaldi\User Data\

Locate your profile directory, in our case, it was Default, and rename it or move it to Desktop.

2. Try a different browser

While Vivaldi is a great browser, in some instances switching to a different browser could be a better solution, and if you’re looking for such a browser, Opera might be the best choice.

The browser offers built-in tracking protection, an ad blocker, and a VPN, so it will protect your online privacy. Just like Vivaldi, it’s based on a Chromium engine, so you’ll feel familiar while using it.

⇒ Get Opera

3. Disable all extensions

Now click the Menu button in the top left corner and expand the Tools section. Now pick Extensions from the list.

Click the switch icon next to the extension name to disable it.

Expert Tip: Some PC issues are hard to tackle, especially when it comes to corrupted repositories or missing Windows files. If you are having troubles fixing an error, your system may be partially broken. We recommend installing Restoro, a tool that will scan your machine and identify what the fault is.

If the issue doesn’t appear anymore, enable extensions one by one until you manage to find the one that is causing this problem.

If you can’t access the extensions page, you can disable all extensions by doing the following:

Locate the Vivaldi shortcut and right-click it. Choose Properties from the menu.

Now in the Target field at the end addr --disable-extensions

4. Turn off IPv6

Press Windows key + S and type network. Select View network connections.

Right-click your connection and choose Properties.

Locate Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) and uncheck it. Now click the OK button to save changes.

Keep in mind that disabling IPv6 can cause issues with certain applications or features on your PC.

5. Disable certain policies

In the address bar enter: vivaldi://flags

Now search for cross origin.

6. Hibernate other tabs

Right-click the new tab and choose Hibernate background tabs.

Keep in mind that this is just a workaround, but a few users reported that it worked for them, so you might want to try it out.

7. Check the Vivaldi shortcut

Right-click the Vivaldi shortcut that you use to launch the software and choose Properties.

In the Target field check the path. Make sure it says vivaldi.exe at the end. If it says vivaldi_proxy.exe change it to vivaldi.exe.

8. Check for updates

Click the Menu icon in the top left. Now expand the Help section and select Check for updates.

If any updates are available, they will be downloaded automatically.

9. Reinstall the software

Navigate to the Apps section.

Select Vivaldi and click on Uninstall.
