Opera does not save some web pages

A Former User

Opera does not save some web pages. It appears random, but I have to check every single page to ensure it has saved. This costs me a couple of hours a day as I save more than 100 pages a day. I've posted this before and all I've gotten back are smart ass comments from the moderator.

@gruffdog said in Opera does not save some web pages:

It appears random

Even though you said it's random, do you at least have a link to a page where it's happened?

When you save a page, there's a download progress. Are you sure pages that resulted in a missing html file said "download complete" when you saved?

You're not deleting the folder for the HTML file sometimes are you? If so, that'll cause the HTML file to be deleted also (by default on Windows at least).

Are you saving any of these web page when viewing in a private window?

Note that Opera doesn't have its own function for saving web pages. Since Opera is based on Chromium, it uses the Chromium function. This means that if you search for this issue for Chrome, you might find that it's a bug in Chromium.

I see this old post: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19828318/web-page-not-save-correctly-in-google-chrome-browser

It has some deleted posts (you might not be able to see them). One points too https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!msg/chrome/yXMeKOMEh3o/HccTr4VdF3YJ

I see an old Chrome bug about it. https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=458808

Maybe see if this webpage saving extension works better. You'll need to install this extension to install it.
