Tip #5

Normally, forgetting a login password is no big deal. You can just reset it. But what if you no longer have access to the account’s recovery email and the all important email with a link to set a new password can’t reach you? Then restoring access to your account becomes a hassle that could’ve been easily avoided.

In addition, you might miss other important emails from us. Such as announcements about upcoming maintenance work when using our services might temporarily not be possible, or about updates to the Privacy Policy and the like.

To review your Vivaldi account information, including the recovery email:

1. Go to Vivaldi.net.
2. Log in to your account.
3. In the top right corner of the page, click on your username/avatar and select Profile.
4. On the profile update the recovery email, if needed.

You’ll find step-by-step instructions for updating the account’s recovery email and other account info on Vivaldi Help.

PS! While you’re at it, check the recovery email of your other online accounts, especially those you created a long time ago.

When browsing themes.vivaldi.net for new Themes for your desktop Vivaldi browser, you can get a live preview of the theme by clicking “Download theme”.

Then you have 1 minute to see how the theme looks. Make sure to check the Start Page to see how the awesome background image looks behind your Speed Dials. Other places where the user interface colours are clearly visible are Panels, Settings, Mail, etc.

When you’re satisfied with the theme, click “Install” in the pop-up to add the theme to your Theme Library. If it’s not really what you were looking for, click “Cancel” or let the preview time run out.
