Download Opera browser with:
@miyukiwork That's right! We know that but it confuses users the way it acts, resulting lost files.
A warning should help because, I repeat, browsers should not delete downloaded files but only download history.
Anyway, downloaded files should not be considered as "browsing data".
You may suggest that to developers. Thanks!
Hello,
I always use Opera on my Android 6.0.1 smartphone and I'm very satisfied!
Everything's fine and Opera seems to be fairly the finest browser for this device.
Everything except one: Opera connects to test server every 6-8 hours even if "FORCE STOP" has been applied.
Is it possible to stop this? Or else, is it possible for a user to have complete control of Opera?
Just as it used to be...
Thank you! Regards!

Test server? : 82.145.21.121:443 am4-lvs-test.osp.opera.software
Force stop? : Settings > Apps > Opera => Uninstall & Force stop buttons.
My firewall reports that Opera tries to connect every 6-8 hours.
I "Force stop" Opera but after those hours I always find Opera active.
That means, Opera opens itself just to connect to, ignoring user's command (Force stop).
This issue started after recent releases. There wasn't in the past.
Thanks for your attention!
@miyukiwork Hello,
I wonder, what makes you believe that the new main menu is better or more useful than the old one?
Ι won't comment all those huge and useless buttons but I'm also wondering, what a 'brilliant' mind put the small "Exit" button so close to "Settings" one?
Please, bring back the old menu or give us an option for that and keep in mind that it's just a mobile phone browser.

@johnbrook I didn't know that and I'll give it a try, although I prefer official releases.
Thank you!

@53north Don't worry! It's a typical warning when "Google Play" is disabled. Those notifications can be easily disabled, too.
Update Opera by downloading latest release from official site, then install it without previous version uninstall.
Since Google wants our phone numbers, we do not trust it!
Seven days after 59 release and official link does not work. Does it mean something?
Should we look for it in unofficial (dangerous) places...?
That would be meant, at least to me, the end of use of Opera.

... Typing "gmail.com" in the address bar is landing me onto:-
https://www.google.com/intl/en-GB/gmail/about/#
...& the resulting page is not responding to even repeated taps on either of these - sign-in, for work, get gmail ...?? ...
Here's what happens, on typing "gmail.com" in address bar.
It goes to... :
...the same address as yours, "https://www.google.com/intl/en-GB/gmail/about/#", and works fine.
Google is also my default search engine and I have Ad-block ON, fully with no exceptions, too.
Typing "gmail.com" in search field of Opera home page, it goes directly to Gmail Sign in page.

@enpow Unfortunately, there is no restore. Kindly, read above previous posts.
To avoid that on clearing browsing data, do not select "Downloads" checkbox, which by default is unchecked.
Let's hope developers will fix that...
