Vivaldi 7.5 gets second minor update to fix camera, tab, and mail bugs

Vivaldi 7.5 has just received its second minor update since it was released six days ago. While minor releases like this may not generate a lot of excitement, this update is different because it addresses several bugs that are quite annoying to the user.

Among the fixes are proper camera activation when you’re using Google Meet, issues with dragging tabs, and mail display glitches. These minor updates mean you don’t have to suffer with annoying bugs until the next big update.

Probably the most notable issue was that the camera wouldn’t activate when trying to use Google Meet, a tool that’s crucial for some people’s remote work/meetings. The bug had something to do with permissions not being granted when it was trying to activate.

Another issue that has been resolved pertains to tab management. Vivaldi was suffering from an issue where tabs that were dragged to a new window were being duplicated. There was also an issue causing colors to go missing on new tabs in stacks. These fixes should help improve user workflow.

The mail client also received two fixes with this update, firstly, there was a persistent exclamation icon without visible errors showing, and secondly, users were running into unnecessary threading warnings. Both of these are sorted now, enhancing the experience of the integrated mail client.

Finally, there is a fix to the address bar which was moving when it shouldn’t have been when users were holding Ctrl and dragging. Issues with website scrolling have been fixed too. The scrolling fix in particular should make it better navigating the web.

The new update is now available for download and should apply automatically soon. If you want to update manually just go to the Vivaldi menu > Help > Check for Updates. If you’ve been affected by any of the bugs be sure to update promptly.
