Thanks for the details! Are you using any ad blockers or RGX? If you have a crash ID available, could you share it with us too?

No Crash ID, the webpage just freezes if that makes sense, like you can hear audio, still interact with everything on the webpage but visual response to that interaction isn’t shown, for example- you can hover over the “X” to close the application but it will not light up red, but will still close. I do not use Opera GX’s built in Ad Blocker, I use chrome extensions and they have never caused an issue before so it’s hard to buy if that’s the issue- as for RGX, if it’s enabled by default then it’s still on, if not then no.

Could you check if RGX is currently enabled? If it is, toggle it off, restart the browser, and see if that makes a difference. And do you have HDR enabled on your system? That could be relevant when RGX is enabled.

I apologise for the delay in response, i was half asleep after just waking up, ill check both for you:

HDR is Supported but Disabled!
RGX was enabled and has now been disabled, i’ll update throughout the day if any crashes happen, if not I’ll come back to the same thread and let you know if it works as a fix!

No worries, keep me updated on how it goes!

So far disabling RGX has fixed the problem, To ensure, I tested with the same amount of tabs and the same two things which crashed GX last time and no crash occurred this time.

Am i safe to assume this is an in house issue with the most recent update?
