Yes, I have a working printer and yes, it is turned on and printing fine from other applications, so yes, the spooler is working

RE: Opera 67.0.3575.31 totally unusable on Windows 10 x64Opera for Windows

@windbags Have you tried peak4's "solution"?
@peak4 said in Opera 67.0.3575.31 totally unusable on Windows 10 x64:
When I had this problem, I just let Opera " wait for program to respond" rather than "end program"
Be patient, it can take several hours, or even overnight.I had sync disabled since the update but I just tried signing in again and it worked for me, too! "Several hours" seems a bit extreme but I did have to wait 5 minutes on a sluggish laptop and 1–2 minutes on a less sluggish desktop PC for Opera to respond again. After that I was logged in and everything had been synced.
It may well depend on how many tabs you have open at the time it hung.
For various reasons, and it never normally causes issues, I was probably running with 100+ open at the same time,I had a few tabs, as I always have several "tasks in progress" that need the info, but nothing like that many. I did try removing ones I thought I could easily retrieve, but after three goes I was getting fed up of it "not responding".
Waiting for minutes/hours/overnight on the "hope" of eventually getting a response is not the mark of a useful browser - especially when Windows 10 updates keeps forcing me to restart the system. -

I've found that, for the moment, synchronization is completely broken.
I agree, that seems to be the issue in 67/win x64.
Removed the sync and everything works without ANY waiting. -

@windbags Have you tried disabling synchronisation?
any help about how to find such welcome!
Answering my own question:
O-menu-Settings-Synchronisation-Sign out
(even though it was the sign-in that was failing)They seem to have broken the sign in!!
Sad that this had to be posted via Chrome ! :-0

How can I go back to 66?
I tried a full Win10 system restore back to February (before the last launcher was written) and, while that was OK, the launcher now didn't launch Opera!
So redid the "download" via OperaSetup and have ended up back with 67 and it freezing after about a minute... -

@jimmybfmv Have same problem, but, sadly, it still froze after about a minute after doing this

Wait!!
You can access from Flags: opera://flags/#enable-new-print-preview.
That option is enabled when I open that
Revert it to "Default"
Thanks! That did the trick after a restart
Odd terminology where enabled made it fault, whereas default made it work fine..I'm ignorant about what the "local state" thing is....
About "Local State" file, just follow the Back up signature's link.
Now I had time, I did go through that, and found that branch under flags, now set to zero - presumably reflecting the flags method change.

If a "Save as PDF" option is present, I suppose that a physical Printer would be not necessary.
Save as pdf often ends up with a single tall thin skinny page, which is not printer friendly
