      You can disable this sound in Opera one but it is not that straight forward and might be undone with an update but I am not sure if it will.
      Follow these steps:

      • Press the windows key
      • Search Opera and right click
      • Open the file directory, do this twice to go to the Opera files
      • While being in this folder search for: splash
      • Delete or move the following file to another folder: opera_gx_splash

      Good luck, hope this also works for you guys!
      Bob

          Hello! Each time I start Opera the welcome window (10x10 сm) with the very loud sound pops up. Only after it the browser opens. Please, help to disable or turn off. I didn't face such problem until today, earlier this window appeared only when I first installed, now on every launch. The settings don't help, I chose "previous page", but the program doesn't obey.
          Opera One(version: 102.0.4880.33)

              I think everybody has the same issue after latest update (myself included).

                How do I stop the Opera pop up, with the music, colored O and black background every time I open Opera.

                  How to disable this 10-second splash screen? Any steps to follow that will work other than switching to Firefox?

                    ShoDaN-ShoDaN, thank you! Unbelievable! I deleted the file: opera_gx_splash - and the problem, that tortured me yesterday, disappeared in part! But it seems, Opera still loads slower. Dear developers, correct this bug finally!

                      @bantubob thank you so much for this, it was so irritating to wait 5 seconds and hear a splash sound everytime i opened the browser, seriously what were they thinking.

                        Every time I close opera and want click on it to re-open, it apparently has shut off completely and relaunches the whole program everytime. So everytime I click on the opera logo to reopen it gives me that short intro with the sound. This happens on my laptop only, never on my pc. Could it be a powersaving method of my laptop or is there setting inside opera I need to change.

                          Actually I just updated Opera and now the splash screen is gone. So if you experience the same issue, I would recommend you do a manual update and open Opera two times (the splash screen always comes up one time after an update).

                            Renamed the gx file, splash gone. Now with every update I will need to do it again? This is just idiotic to push this. If it annoys me too much I will retreat to Fox.
                            Over and out.

                              Find this executable file and rename its extension.

                                @damacan It's becoming a nuisance. How does one disable the splash screen?

                                    • Open the Opera installation folder (C:\Users\YourUser\AppData\Local\Programs\Opera\102.0.4880.16)
                                    • Delete the following file "opera_gx_splash"

                                    Problem solved 🙂

                                        Many thanks from the prompt answer.
                                        How can Opera doesn't notice this nuisance for working people and others ?
                                        Your navigator is a great tool but please don't fall in Microsoft and Google defaults ! Stay humble ... And discrete

                                          @livorno rename the file:
                                          opera_gx_splash.exe
                                          It is located where you installed Opera[version number]
                                          I renamed it to opera_gx_splash.exe.foobar
                                          Then the splash will stop.
                                          You can also delete the file.
                                          After the program gets updated - splash might come back and you need to rename/delete it again.
                                          I have a strong opinion about this policy to force everyone to see/hear it. As you might imagine it is not an enthusiastic opinion.
