@leocg said in Deleting an already removed file from inside Opera says failed to delete file:

@live1one But that message isn't appearing only when you try to delete a file that is already deleted? If there is no file to be deleted, Opera correctly says that the operation failed.

If the file was already deleted and you just want to remove it from the list of downloads, you should use the Clean option and not the Delete one.

.yes that failed to delete messages only shows if the file has allready been deleted beforehand from the device.then i go to opera downloads and try to delete the file.opera immediately deletes it from the download list and its gone but then show the failed message, but opera still deletes it from the download list, so it's no different to using the clear function if the file was already deleted I just thought it was a bug.anyway cheers for clearing that
up buddy

@leocg it should not say failed to delete file when its deleting it anyway .why would it say failed to delete file when its deleting it anyway.i should say file does not exist and delete it. I'm asking the devs to fix it because when it says failed to delete file it makes you think the file was not deleted when It was deleted allready from the phone.im just giving feedback for the browser as others have noticed the this issue and its annoying the wording and could confuse people like it did for myself and others

Hi I wanted to see if you could fix this bug I found in opera.if I have a file I downloaded with opera on my phone ,then go into file manager or wherever and delete the file off the phone.then go into opera then go to the download section and them try to delete it,it does delete it as it's no longer there in the opera downloads but it says 1 download deleted then says failed to delete file. Should it not say file deleted then file doesn't exist anymore or file deleted because the file is deleted from device. It's just an annoying thing I noticed today.

Now if you do not delete the a file from the phone beforehand and then go to opera downloads and delete the file it will say file deleted. I hope you guys can fix this annoying text

Cant edit my posts so I'll reply to it instead. So 2 months ago the pop up was driving me mad.so I updated opera to the latest version v62 march I think and the pop up immediately stopped.now 2 months later the may v63 is out and low and behold the pop up is back telling me to update to the newest version. I'm deleting opera it's a shame as it's my favourite browser but opera should not be overriding our phones when we have them set to not update and product and service notifications blocked.i have all opera notifications blocked.been using opera since the beginning so it's such a shame

Re: Pop-up about important update available

The pop up is back telling me to update the dam app at this point it's time to find a new browser as much as I love opera I cant take this bs from opera. If I want to update I will just dont keep pushing notifications to me telling me to update it

Dammit the update pop up is back I think its frlm opera and its forcing me to update a perfectly good app that I dont want to update

I think I sorted the problem I'll be back if the issue comes back.

@sgunhouse. So how to get rid of mallwhere?
Because I've scanned the phone and its clean.ive even factory reset it

Yes I have malwarebytes installed
Since clearing the data and cash from opera I've not seen the pop up come back yet
I'm not good with technology hence why I'm here asking for help with this opera and yahoo update pop ups

@leocg opera is from the play store bro

@leocg installed normally mate. If it's not coming from opera what is it and what's it coming from?and how to make it go away permanently. I factory reset the phone yesterday. Amd woke up this morning to the update opera pop up across my home screen.
Since then I deleted the cashe and data from opera and yahoo mail as it's also happening with yahoo mail.it has not returned yet since clearing the data from opera and yahoo.but I'm waiting for it to come back
Ps I tried to see if its virus but it's not a virus or malware as the malwarebytes says the phone is clean
