    Opera freezes on startup, seemingly indefinitely, unless I delete the history file.

      Opera freezes on start up, only occasionally registering any input, for multiple minutes. I have not seen it stop being in this state. Deleting the history file stops it from doing this, but I would like to keep my browser history. There are multiple threads on the operabrowser subreddit discussing this, which I will link to, so this is not an isolated case.

          @leocg Opera One for me, though one of the posts on the subreddit says they're using GX, so I suspect it's not limited to just One.

            Same issue here. Even if I have > 100 Tabs open, Opera freezes on starup and I have to wait about 2 mins to get it work. Starts about 2 days ago, as the reddit posts say.

            Browser: Opera One(Version: 120.0.5543.161)
            Chromium-Version:135.0.7049.115
