      I just want hard refresh on my specific page.

      Also short cuts like ctrl+F5 shift+F5 don't work for some reason and doesn't reset the page I have read online that is why some users are moving back to chrome so it be really nice to able hard refresh per page biases

          @donq I looked in devs tools I just couldn't find it? if you look at chrome, you can right click the refresh icon and it drops with these 3 options normal reload, hard reload, empty cache and hard reload it helps with testing tokens etc or state in development

            @lesmw Ctrl+F5 / Shift+F5 do work here (well, they don't clear cookies and storage, they only fetch page and all related elements - like in other browsers).

            Then you can clear site data by clicking padlock icon, "Cookies and site data" and so on - this requires quite a many clicks.

            In DevTools, Application tab you can clear everything (click Storage on left menu).

            I agree that Opera could make developers life happier, unfortunately they have removed such simple shortcuts from easy access - most likely cookie producers and watchers (I mean companies, basing their revenue on targeted ads) do not want to delete cookies and other site data so easily.

              I tried Ctrl+F5 and for some reason its not refreshing the page, nothing happens on the page visually to indicate refresh compared to manually clicking the refresh button. I don't know how to debug it>?

                @lesmw In settings, keyboard shortcuts, is Ctrl+F5 assigned?
                Can you try with extensions disabled? (In private mode most extensions ar disabled for example.)
                And - are you sure your app does not process it somehow? We (in our app) changed processing for F5 and initially accidentally overwrote Ctrl+F5 either 🙂
