Interesting. Mine only have whatsapp site in blocked.

I am going to remove it and see if it helps.

That was IDM (Internet Download Manager) for me.

Hello,

I am using Opera 66.0.3515.36 (latest as of today).

When I try to download a file shared with me on web whatsapp, first file after running opera downloads fine. If I do not exit and re-start opera second file fails.

Fails here means: I see a popup bottom left saying file downloaded, but it is not actually downloaded. I cannot see it in Downloads list. File does not exists on my computer if I search for it.

As suggested, I have tested all extensions disabled and result is same.

I can provide additional information is needed.

Thanks & regards,
Ertan

I could not find any solution or any suggestion.

What I find more usable is to use Opera's WhatsApp integration on left side panel. It works to reload that panel for a second file download.

I just updated my version to 69.0.3686.36

Now that item is not displayed in the list at all. Interesting.

I will see it for about a week to be sure.

If it appears again, I am going to try history.

Thanks.

@leocg Where exactly I can do that? I do not remember when I last visit that suggestion.

Hello,

I am using Opera 68.0.3618.173 on Windows 10 64Bit.

Each time I start typing "hd" letters on address bar, suggestion list is always like below in below screen shot.

Even there is X mark at right most side of the first item. Clicking on it does not work. That item is always displayed.
First choice here is a wrong address. Domain has been changed and it does not work.

I failed to delete that item from suggested list of items there.
I do not want to delete all my history or something like that.

What I would like to know is; can I delete that item an that item only from suggestion list?

Thanks & Regards,
Ertan

Root cause was "Automatic downloads" disabled.

Hello,

What setting is that?

I believe that setting closed Opera would ask us a location using a save file dialog for file to download, wouldn't it?

After disabling one plugin that I suspected. I did not have any lock at all.
I already reported that to developer. Will let them know again.

Thanks.
