Description

Steps to reproduce
  1. Enable Files App integration
  2. Open a folder full of pdf files. (Not in favourites)
Expected behaviour

It only downloads when I click on them.

Actual behaviour

It downloads automatically once I open the folder.

Reasoning or why should it be changed/implemented?

It's using up all my traffic and taking up space.
