Do you have any ideas on how to fix that?
Thanks!

Have you tried using a storage cleaner/file scan to see if there are any temp files that might be what is causing your issue?

I was searching for temporary files 1. With system settings - allow to show hidden files; and 2. With a file manager, - and didn't find any.
As for storage cleaners for android I'm not sure if I can trust them.
Maybe you could suggest a trusted one that wouldn't remove what shouldn't be removed?
Thank you!

Sometimes when I download large files (about 1-15gb), download may fail (not opera's fault). Recently I was downloading a bunch of large files and had a number of such fails and, although all of the downloaded files were later moved to another place, I noticed that free space at internal storage on my phone has decreased substantially (more than 20gb). I restarted the phone, updated the system, storage space wasn't retrieved. Is it possible that opera browser is still storing some temporary files that are parts of failed downloads? If so, how to remove them? Thanks!
