Clear History on Exit

Just for clarification, it's a new "On Exit" tab in the Clear Browsing Data dialog that you get to by going to "Menu -> History -> Clear Browsing Data" or by going to the URL opera://settings/clearBrowserData.

Trying to export any page to PDF leads to crashing the tab (and all related tabs). This was already the case with the previous snapshot.

@mbstafs, yes, I can confirm that.

W11x64, Operax64 (standalone installation)

Edit:
When I do it with the "FireShot" extension, it works without problems.

Good day. The function of clearing history on exit does not work. It is enabled, the option of visiting history is selected. However, after closing the browser and then opening it again, the history does not disappear

@daria19 sorry for off-topic, but there are about 2 months until MV2 support will be removed forever from Chromium. Any update on what's going to happen to Opera?

I know there is that article from 6 months ago but for me at least it sounds kinda ambiguous.

You managed to fix this immense issue in the Developer version a lot faster than other browsers, Respect! ^^

Finally I can stay without worry that it will affect stable too =3

@daria19: Sure. I have Windows 11. I disabled history synchronization and on the page opera: // settings / clearBrowserData in the section on exit I selected browsing history. Then I close the browser by clicking on the cross in the right corner and launch it through the shortcut on the desktop. But the history is not cleared

@vladbabinets If you want to try and work around it, goto the URL opera://about, take note of the "profile" path, close Opera and delete the "History" file in the profile folder. Then see if the setting works.

Maybe make a copy of the "History" file first though just in case you want to submit it in a bug if requested.

@vladbabinets: Thank you for sharing your experience with us. It seems like you've uncovered an interesting scenario. We've found that when all synchronization is disabled, the 'Clear Data on Exit' feature works as expected, and history is cleared properly. Your detailed steps have been incredibly helpful, and we've logged this issue as DNA-122122 for further investigation.

@daria19: Thank you. I will wait for the fix with impatience. But there is one more problem - the font on the bookmarks bar. I use the midsummer theme and the font is thin now. But after an accidental browser launch it becomes saturated. But after the next launch it becomes thin again. I would like it to be saturated all the time
