@leocg They always say complete if that's what you're talking about so no, from what I can tell nothing is wrong

@ludwig Any downloads that, for any reason, weren't completed.

@leocg No, they all say "Download complete". Happens with programs and images from multiple sources.

@ludwig Any difference if you clear the downloads list?

@leocg Nope, I mentioned trying that, turning my anti-virus off and restarting pc.

@leocg Would you recommend reinstalling opera from scratch at this point? Unless there's some hidden settings or something I could do to completely disable it as I've never seen or needed it before in the 5 or so years of using opera.

@ludwig You can try with a new clean profile directory to see if something changes.

@leocg Sorry can you explain what you mean with your suggestions, I just tried changing the location for downloads to another folder on another hard drive and I'm still having the same problem if that's what you mean.
