Download folder not accessible

@leocg , I'm talking the mobile android version. There's a normal accessible directory called "downloads" where Chrome deposits files, but Opera plops them somewhere else that I can't see from outside of the browser. Its like I have two "download" directories: a visible one, and an invisible one that only Opera can read.

You can choose the download folder in Opera Mobile settings.

@yeswap , yes, "downloads" is selected. But with a little droid utility called "Downloads" I cant see any Opera downloads, though everything I got with Chrome is there, and can be used directly, w/o involving Chrome. Opera's downloads I can only see on Opera's Downloads page and nowhere else. If I want to open a .PDF file (that got downloaded with Opera) I have to do it from Opera.

@croupf Strange that Opera is downloading to a directory named Downloads that you can't find in your file structure.
A couple of things to try.- In your file manager search for a file that you downloaded with Opera to find where it's stored. If you don't have a file manager or yours doesn't have a file search, I recommend installing Amaze File Manager , it's free, ad-free and open source.
- Or, create a folder with a name like Opera downloads and choose it as your downloads folder in Opera settings.
