hello,
even enabling third party cookies, google drive comes up with error message that it has no allowance for downloading several files. (google zip them).
download a single file works fine.
whats wrong?
[*.]drive.google.com is added in the cookies exemption settings
sincerely tom

PS: i have opera 74.0.3911.218 and windows 10 adblocker switched off

@leocg i had not tried them.
even when 1 file works fine with download, why a zipped one does not work?? from the same directory and url, thats not logically
without changed cookie settings??

@tango13 Then you have to try them. In fact you should have done that before posting.

@tango13 Happens with any kind of file? Adblocker turned off too?

@leocg Yes i tried pdf and png and jpeg files.
a single file download works , a multiple file download as zip file does not.
"Ublock origin" switched off and second try switched on
really strange
i will reset whole opera, hope my extensions will not be lost
cross fingers

@tango13 In Google Drive page, click on the padlock badge and then o site settings. Allow multiple downloads and see if it changes anything.

For future reference, at opera://settings/content/automaticDownloads, you want to disable "Ask when a site tries to download files automatically after the first file (recommended)" or add the site in question to the allow list.
