@burnout426 Thanks for your suggestions. Sadly, it didn´t help to solve the problem. There was no site in the block list.
In my case, when you click the download button for individual files, you can see "Scanning for viruses..." and "Waiting for drive.google.com" messages and then nothing else happens.
And when I try to download the whole folder as a zip file, it works fine, but i need to download also individual files from a folder.

An Update: It seems I could solve the problem. I performed an Opera recovery, but keeping my data. So after a few changes to restore my previous settings, I tried to download a file from Google Drive and it succeeded. Hope that this may help others and the problem wont show up again.
Thanks for everyone who replied to this post. Best regards

@germxnssj Hay preguntas similares en el foro en inglés, y yo tuve esta situacion hace pocos días, presumo que debido a una de las últimas actualizaciones algo se modificó que afectó su comportamiento. Personalmente, no guardo las contraseñas, pero no borro las cookies despues de cerrar el programa, pero de todos modos se me cerraba la sesión de algunas páginas. Aunque no sé cuál será la solución real, algunas de las cosas que hice fue restaurar la configuracion por defecto del programa (disculpa uso el programa en inglés por lo que no sé muy bien cual es el nombre real en español de cada setting) reconfigurarlo y fijarse bien en que esté guardando las contraseñas, y si están sincronizando tus datos, desloguéate y verifica si así funciona mejor, logueate de nuevo y verifica las configuraciones de borrado de password y de cookies. Al parecer en algun momento (sospecho con la actualizacion del programa) se activó el borrado de cookies y quedó configurado en mis settings del sync y eso me generó el problema... espero que se entienda y ayude en algo...saludos

Hello, I noticed this week that I cannot download files from Google Drive, which I was doing until last week. It works fine in other browsers, so I assume it is an issue with Opera. I don´t remember changing any setting these last days, can anybody help me with this issue? Thanks in advance

SO: Windows 7 64 bit
Opera version updated (checked)

This feature was suggested for OperaGX, but I am asking the same for Opera for Windows. Even IE has this option, and it saves a lot of time needed to go to the download directory every time to delete the files you only need to open for a short time. I usually open excel and word files just to check some info on them and then I don't need them anymore.

So the idea is to add the option of opening the file (with the appropiate application, not inside the browser) to the automatically download every-single-file we click on, and then we could choose what we want to do with the file.

Also I frequently download epub with DRM (.ascm files), and other browsers such as IE and Chrome allows to open them directly on Adobe Digital Editions, making the process soooo smooth and simple...please make our life easier!!!

I had this very annoying issue I suppose after I installed an extension that I no longer use... I tried reinstalling Opera, and deleting all the program folders, but after some days, it reappeared again. So I tried the sugestion of checking Windows Task Scheduler, and noticed it had 2 task for Opera Autoupdate, I took my chances and deleted all 2.. so now I had to manual Update to the last version and now I have another only 1 new task and it is working fine again...hope that it could be useful, regards

@leocg Yes I always have, but since a last update, I have to log in for the forum, and it doesn´t even recognize this account, I have to type it again. It is a very unusual behavior with this browser, and apparently I am not the only one having this issues. I usually don't use the autofill option, but the auto sign-in, and this is the one that it is not working in my experience. I am changing to use the autofill passwords, but is not my preferred and first option.

After a year using this app, I still can´t figure it out how the exact steps I have to do to get to sync speed dials between my android phone and my tablet. I created my account, and being looged on both devices, I only see old syncs of my other devices, sometimes devices appear more than once with different sync dates, and it is very difficult to get the current list of speed dials for each device. I log off and sign in many (too many) times until it finally "works"; but it is a real pain that this doesn´t work in a more straight forward way... or maybe I am missing a step or doing something wrong... please can somebody help me to understand how this feature really works?

Thats the task Scheduler for Windows, if you slide down the list, you may find an Opera Autoupdate task, if there are 2 of them, that could be the reason for the problem, you just have to select one of them and delete it. I deleted both of them and with the next update which I did manually, the task reappeared and all is working fine now. Hope that this helps, regards

Edit to a previous comment: So after a few times that my browser kept me looged in, now it is signing me out again, even from this forum, cannot recognize my account, I have to type it all over again.... so this is a problem of this last update I think, and hope that this could be solved in next versions, but my experience says that if something fails with the browser, we have to learn to live with it, I have sent some problem reports before and none of them have been solved...sad

@sailormax Thank you very much for your assistance, hope that this could be fixed. I also checked that my VPN is not enabled, and my IP is not China, it is in my home country (Chile).
Thanks and regards

@sailormax Hello, I don't have other settings in Opera or elsewhere in Chinese. This happens in all pages I select to Translate, I am sending some screens as example for a page in Italian and another in French.
Selection Translate with right-click in selected page:

And this is how that the page is translated, but with the toolbar in Chinese:
https://imgbox.com/hAcdS3u8
This is how I correct the language in the toolbar, changing the last text in the link bar to "pto=wapp":

And these are screens from the same situation in another page in French, so this happens everytime I use the translator:

And finally, this is the last setting I have for this extension, I added Chinese as an exception for Google Toolbar, but even after I changed thissetting it is still showing Chinese symbols:

Hope that this info would help you to solve this problem, thank you very much and regards.

@sailormax Hello, thanks for your reply. My default target language is English, and I have set the source language to Auto Detect. I generally use Google Translate. And when I have a page I would like to be translated, I right-click and select "Translate page", that opens a new tab with the translated page, but in chinese... even the toolbar of Google Translator in the upper part of the translated page shows those symbols. I have managed to get the translation in English, but the Google Translator tollbar is still in Chinese. I have noted that the address of the translated webpage ends with "/?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=zh-CN", while when I use Google Translator "outside" of this extension is "/?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=pto=wapp" and that way it works fine for me; I am not an expert in programming, so I hope that this info would help to find the problem. Thanks in advance and regards.

Last couple of weeks it started showing me Google translation bar in oriental symbols, apparently it is using a location by default. When I use Google Translator without this add on, it works fine, so most probable cause is a bug from this add-on. Hope that this could be solved asap, that's why my rating has been lowered to only 2 stars.

An Update: It seems I could solve the problem. I performed an Opera recovery, but keeping my data. So after a few changes to restore my previous settings, I tried to download a file from Google Drive and it succeeded. Hope that this may help others and the problem wont show up again.
