      This is something I find extremely frustrating:

      Every time I have downloaded a .PDF in Vivaldi; Android(?) tries to open it.

      • I definitely don't want this "feature."
      • Only download the file.
      • Nothing else.

      Unfortunately, it doesn't help. A downloaded pdf file immediately prompts: what do you want to open me with?

      There is also a flag

      #android-open-pdf-inline
      

      but disabling it doesn't help either.

      These are my settings:

      • Download location: SD Card /storage/2D43-44FD/Download
      • Ask where to save files: Off
      • Automatically open PDFs: Off
      • External download manager: Off

      I'm still asked to choose which app to use for opening the PDF after each download is completed.
      Definitely not something I want to do when downloading a hundred files.
