Deleting separate History entries is slow beyond any common sense.

i have a problem quite similar to this. when i try to delete an entry, whole history window becomes unresponsive. it locks itself, the whole history entry disappears even. it's really annoying and forces me to switch browser when i don't want to.

There's a performance fix for deleting history that came out in Opera Developer 100.0.4796.0. Please test in the latest Opera Developer (100.0.4801.0 at the moment) to see if this issue is fixed too or not.

Hello @burnout426, the latest version of Opera Dev. browser is working perfectly fine. I can delete single history entries both from mini history pop-up and history window. However, i got used to some of GX features such as keybord and tab sounds. Do i get to unlock similar sounds with Opera Dev. browser?

It is also my problem too ... history takes time to load and deleting one entry takes 3 seconds to load before it updates ...

My version is 100.0.4815.54 and I'm having the same problem for a while. Deleting entries is extremly hard and besides that history tab is problematic as while. Multiple times I come up to a empty page when I open the history page.

Still persists. Even the most newest update still "silently nudges" me to clean my History at least weekly, or the OP problem comes back. How about you actually fix the stupid coding that causes the number of entries to be a problem to begin with? Because if it was just a text file, I'm pretty sure there would NOT be ANY delays or problems. So who needs this dumb encoding anyways? I sure don't. -

I use Opera for a long time and always recommended it, but unfortunately these "small" things, like the delay when deleting history entries, impossibility to disable the mute button in tabs, the existence of a border, crashes where I lost all my open tabs ... are pushing me towards Vivaldi.

Deleting one single entry seems to last more than 5 seconds and only have a month of entries. I also have has to crash the Opera.exe program several times for eating up all of my RAM. If these bugs are not fixed, I'm bailing out for a different browser. It is irritating that Opera thinks so poorly of its users.

Note: This is the Opera Forum... So, yeah. Nice, nice.
Good question: Why am I still using it? I mean, nostalgia and esthetic conditioning, yes, but why really? -

Interesting. It seems that 103 finally fixed this nonsense today. Bumping this thread for others to share their experience. How is it, guys?

@allanfelipe Well, someone posted a thread complaining that it Started causing issues only now. I really guess it's a case by case issue, it seems.

I have found a solution to my problem:
In the Opera installation directory there is in the folder
"Profile" => "Data" a file called "History".Make a copy of the file "History" (backup) and open
the original file "History" with an editor.
Delete everything in this file and save it, so that you now have an empty file.Now just start Opera and test it.
For me the browsing history is now normal fast again.
I mean it is even faster than before.I wonder that the file "History" contains entries and surfing traces, although you have deleted the history (everything) (?)
Dear Dev's, why is this?
