        @AUBYCORD Remove the file from the download list.

        If that file is being downloaded from nowhere, check opera://settings/content/automaticDownloads, disable all extensions and mods and check your system for malware.

            @AUBYCORD Not sure if I understood the issue. What would be the steps to reproduce it?
