Clearing cache, history, session, saved passwords

New user. Opera 49.0.2725.47, W10 64 bit.
I have privacy settings set to what I consider the maximum. Always use privacy mode.
When I clear browsing data, checking ALL boxes, then exit opera, then open CCleaner, I find the following:
Opera Internet Cache,
Opera Internet History,
Opera Session, and
Opera Saved Passwords, as entries to be deleted!Indeed, if I clear all of these using CCleaner, then open OPERA (automatically to my StartPage home page in privacy mode), then immediately close Opera, CCleaner shows me:
Opera Internet Cache of 11,178 kb (several files),
Opera Internet History of 189 kb (several files), and
Opera Saved Passwords of 18 kb (1 file)I am annoyed.
Is there: 1. any justifiable reason that Opera saves these files, when I specifically tell it to clear them, and 2. any setting/add-on, etc,. for me to get the result I want?

I have a very similar issue: I clear all history, passwords and auto-complete, restart Opera and it still (incorrectly) auto-completes a login name. It means I cannot log in!

@leocg Not sure I follow what you mean. The login name is determined by another organization. Using the wrong name and/or password in an attempt to reset Opera is something I have tried already.
The only solution I have found is not to use Opera for this particular login. Which is a pain!
The worrying implication is however that Opera says it deletes passwords, autocomplete etc. but in fact (sometimes, but consistently?) it does not. This is where I see the connection with the previous post.
