I just updated to 68.0.3618.46 and I'm not satisfied because before this update it occupied almost 200 mb of memory while now it touches 400 mb, I would like to know how to uninstall this update or otherwise how to reduce the mb of the app

Your title says disk space but you mention memory (implies RAM) in your post. Could you clarify what one you're talking about for sure? Judging by the 200/400MB, you're talking about disk space, but want to make sure.

But, for now, in Opera, goto the URL opera://about and take note of the "install" path. Close Opera and use Windows Explorer (file explorer) to go to that folder. There you should see a 68.0.3618.46 folder and one or more older version folders. You can delete the older version folders to save space. You can also delete the older launcher.exe files.
