Do you have Google Translate app installed? If you don't mind can you tell me which phone you are using and which Android version?

@miyukiwork "Clear private data" is showcasing our REAL downloads to be removed completely from the respective folder ! ..??
You should target >> "download history" & not the actual downloads !
Pl look into & introduce the necessary amends.
Thanks.

@miyukiwork I have my 'night mode' & 'dark pages' enabled all the time & Iam still observing FAQs under Help << Settings as White only ??..!
Why are these "Frequently asked questions" within Opera settings actually evading both - Night mode + Dark webpages ??
Pl look into & explore further.
Thanks.

Have you checked if the downloaded files still remain on the device? If the downloads were done in private mode, those entries get deleted after restart, but they should remain in the system.

avmon last edited by@miyukiwork Thanks for the better handling of Speed Dial shortcuts and for adding new features to ad blocking. I see useful improvements in Opera for Android while the desktop version removes them.

@miyukiwork The downloaded files are gone forever as we instinctively check/tick the respective entry (downloads) & press delete to clear our entire private data !
The browser never evokes any warning or prompt that you are about to delete your actual downloads & won't be able to recover those by any chance !
& finally, I always use the normal browsing mode & never touch the Ignito or Pvt. browsing mode / session ever.
Inputs shall be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Can you share your device info (phone name and Android version)? Do you use SDcard for download or Opera is installed in SDcard?
We also would like to know examples. (regardless if the problem happens in all sites)
Can you tell us which sites you have used for downloading files?gp-support-opera-android at opera.com is an alternative place where you can report issues.

@miyukiwork Hi there! Pl refer to the enclosed info. to gain an insight into - Model name, number & android version.
The installation is very much natural & default onto phone's internal storage (ROM) & have never used an external storage of any sorts ever !
Lastly, the issue is uniform & common across all websites. Infact, the issue is regardless & independent of a destination website & the kind of download (.exe, .zip ..etc.)
Nevertheless, I mostly choose - Neowin.net & Filehippo.com for the purpose of software downloads !
So kindly suggest ahead?
Thanks.

I can confirm that and agree. Or else, at the very least, there must be a warning.Blackview A30 / Android 8.1

You can disable the pull-to-refresh function by the following steps:
- Go to opera://flags
- Enable "The pull-to-refresh effect"
- Restart Opera

One more thing we would like to ask you to check. Can you go to O menu, Downloads, then tap the 3-dot menu "Download folder", then confirm your download location? If you don't mind, can you let us know where you selected?

@miyukiwork I cannot understand why you ask all those questions while a simple test can show what happens.
Wherever a downloaded by Opera file has been saved, Settings/Clear browsing data.../Advanced/Downloads(checked)/Clear data command, is going to permanently delete that file(s) w/o any warning.
Browsers, by default, do not delete downloaded files, only download history. Of course, you have to check Downloads item first, for the file(s) to be deleted and that item is unchecked by default.

Ok, so what it pointed out is about we are not showing a warning dialog before deleting download when you use "Clear browsing data..." feature? If so, unfortunately, it's by design now (as downloads are not selected by default).
