Opera 12 crashes when moving tab from one window to another
As the title says:- Run Opera
- Create 2 tabs
- Drag one tab out so a new window is created
- Drag the tab back to the first window
- Enjoy crash
Using Windows 7, AMD, this also happens on an Intel.
Confirmed. I have the same problem on Windows 7. However i believe this problem happens on all other versions of Windows too. I liked Opera a lot BEFORE the new version, 12. Version 12 is the worst version of Opera browser i have ever seen in my life!!!
Yes, dragging tabs from window to window causes complete crash-then-restart of opera. In my case I've done the dragging in side panel with "windows" view enabled, and I was really surprised it happened, never had that problem in previous versions. So I've tested various combinations of dragging and I confirm that migrating groups of tabs between windows is a NO-NO in my Opera 12 (crashes on both my computers XP and Win7, so it's really not the installation).
Nevertheless I find Opera 12 generally smooth and it feels faster for everything except flash video. That wrapper thing is a bug in and of itself. So I watch video in other browsers for the moment. I trust it shall be fixed in the next few months (that's how long it usually takes, lol).
Another thing: it was a big mistake to upgrade from existing installation to Opera 12, too many problems. This version definitely needs a totally clean install. Then you can appreciate its charms.

100% confirmed. v11 had some annoying bugs too. I don't like the way Opera develops at the moment -.-
I use Windows 7, ultimate, 64 bit - same bug.
