@leocg said in Automatically Opening Downloaded Files:
No satisfactory explanation has been given by Opera for this deficiency
It seems to be the default for (almost) all major browsers nowadays. Also it may not be very convenient to see a file opening hours later while you are doing something else, a scenario that can happen if the download runs in a slow connection.
So, Opera and other browsers are trying to regulate stupid??? Very, very frustrating and is why I usually have more than one browser open. If Opera would allow folks to turn ON the feature (versus not allowing it at all), I might be able to stick with just one.
