The Download page stopped showing in progress and completed downloads approximately 5 days ago. If I start a new download all I see are downloads completed 5 days ago and nothing since. The downloads work just the Download tab has gone wonky. I am running the most current version. Although it may not a factor in this issue, I am not a fan of the new Download page layout and much prefer the previous one. What version would I have to revert to to get back the old layout?

RE: [Solved]Download page no longer shows new downloadsOpera for Windows
After some trial and error it appears that Downloads doesn't play nicely with some VPNs which is why the downloads are not showing up. But that aside this new layout looks like it was designed for phones in portrait mode not for Windows PCs. Everything is crammed into the center of the page resulting in each download in a box taking more vertical space with large blank areas to the right and left. Poor use of screen real estate that results in showing fewer downloads and making monitoring multiple downloads much harder. Additionally the Downloads tab takes an inordinate amount of time to come up. Sadly as a long time Opera user and fan this could end up being a deal breaker for me.

Tab Search now returns results for every individual letter?Opera for Windows
Is it just me and something I am not optioning correctly or did the new tab search feature just make itself useless? Instead of returning results for words or phrases it now returns results for each individual letter. Lets say I am searching for tabs with the word man. I get everything that has an m, everything that has an a and everything that has an n in it. I cannot believe this how this supposed to work as you will never find what you are specifically searching for but just about every open tab.
