I tried Downloading a 36GB Zip file the estimated time is 12Hours,before i sleep i just let my laptop open so it will download,after 6Hours i saw that the file is complete donwloading when i open it it's only 5gb and i cant extract it because files is missing also when i pause the donwload and close the browser and open it again and resume donwload after 10min it will say downloading finish even when the downloaded file is only 1-5Gb

Need help how can i finish downloading that 36Gb if it keeps on saying Donwload complete even tho it only donwload less than 10% of the file

You forgot to mention your Opera version and to put a link to the file.

Also, do you use any extension? What about any anti-virus (or similar software) that monitors your internet connection?

Does the file downloads correctly if you disable Avast?

If your AV or security suite scans your internet traffic to look for potential problems, there may be a chance that it's not working as should and it's given Opera wrong info about the download.

Another possibility is that the computer is going into stand-by mode and cutting the connection.

Anyway, I've just started the download to see if it completes here or not.

Download finished fine here with the file having its correct file size. I even had to resume it a couple of times due to some crashes.

See this F.A.Q.

if i closed my browser and comeback again i will press resume download but it wont finish downloadin

It may be a different issue. I don't know if Opera can resume a download that was started at a previous session, never tested it.
