        @leocg My Opera is in Spanish, but I guess that's the 4th option here. It's disabled so... Unless it's an option somewhere else.

        That would translate as "Show recommendations for Speed Dials" not sure if that's the same.

          It's not that setting, that's for speed dial suggestions.
          I'm not seeing the option on your image.

            @leocg That's the Settings section related with the Start page. Where else should I look for it?
            I changed my Opera to English and search for "Promote" and nothing comes up

            Also searching for Speed dial only this shows.

              @miblog what opera version it is? 58?
              You can try going to flags (opera://flags) and make sure that the 'Partner bookmarks opt-out option' flag is set to default[E]. It makes 'Promoted bookmarks' toggle visible in Settings.
              Or you cant try with a clean profile.

                It'd the latest stable version, 60? It seems to be missing a lot of options.

                Between 'Hide speed dial' and 'Show speed dial suggestions' there should be na option to disable those promoted speed dials.

                  @andrew84 I'm using Opera 55.0.299461
                  In this version there is no 'Partner bookmarks opt-out option' flag. I guess I will have to update Opera. And still not sure if that would fix it, but I guess I will try.
                  Also don't like this way of advertisement, so I may ditch Opera in general. It's a shame they do this.

                    @miblog Yes, the 55 version is definitely missing that option(in updated version there's no need going to flags, that toggle is visible in Settings by default).

                      Thanks a lot. Updating to version 60 worked. Now I have that option disabled.

                        Got this today while launching my opera, even with all the stuff deactivated, nice example of abuse regarding private life.
                        So no matter what you do in settings, you will still get this.
