        Yep, you can turn off the startup sound in Opera. Just go to Settings > Browser > on Startup and untick "Play sound". That will stop the sound from playing each time you open Opera. Simple as that.

          Interesting why the developers are pushing everybody into a splash screen that mostly everybody hates and that does not helps anybody...not Opera and not the users...

          Did not find the setting in my version to disable it...

            Long time Opera user. Always happy. Recent upgrades have slowed Opera considerably. Why when entering Opera there is a new logo appearing which takes almost 5 seconds to end. Also tiles are slower fully load. Help- suggestions. Thanks

                Hi guys,

                SInce the new update of my Opera browser, the animation's start always appears on my screen. How can you disable that thing.

                I thought it was a bug and i tried to uninstall then reinstall but it doesn't fix it.

                Kind regards

                    @lyuyouwhat I also try to turn it off, but there is nothing like that in the settings. If only they shortened the time of displaying that animation.

                      It was already said: all suggested methods work...only till the nearest update. Then you have to repeat all over again.

                          @proshor I have mentioned this works until next update.
                          There is no better option right now, aside of cron-jobs, scripts or using linux (which should not be pointed out to those who don't want to use it, a typical Nazeem attitude regarding Cloud District).

                            there are a few ways to disable the splash screen when opening Opera One:

                            Method 1: Using Opera Settings:

                            Open Opera One and click on the Opera menu button (the red "O" icon in the top-left corner).
                            Go to "Settings" and scroll down to the "Advanced" section.
                            Under "Advanced", click on "System" in the sidebar.
                            In the "Startup and Shutdown" section, toggle off the "Show splash screen on startup" option[1].
                            Method 2: Renaming or Deleting Splash Screen Files:

                            You can try renaming or deleting the splash screen files to disable it.
                            Find the Opera installation directory on your computer (usually located in "C:\Program Files\Opera").
                            Look for a file named "opera_gx_splash.exe" or similar, and either rename it to something else or delete it[2].
                            Please note that modifying or deleting system files can have unintended consequences, so proceed with caution and make sure to backup any important data before making any changes.

                            I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.

                              @liamdawson did you copy that from Reddit? or ChatGPT? Because there is no such setting. Don't post advice if you haven't confirmed it yourself.

                                I don't have any "Startup and Shutdown" in Opera Settings. Where is it located?

                                  Maybe they mean GX browser or this is just trolling/bots.

                                    +1 for fix about this issue. Not critical though, but annoying a bit.

                                          The splash screen is a nuisance. The startup sound is straight out unprofessional and depending on one's system may be disturbingly loud. Every time I use Opera now (Opera One) it begins by pissing me off mightily, and annoying coworkers if I'm in an office. This is a peculiar decision by Opera and unacceptable. They have downgraded a browser that actually promotes productivity and redefined it as a time-wasting entertainment platform not intended for any professional environment. And two days ago, after decades of researching in libraries on two continents, I experienced my first ever admonishing "SHHH!" from a librarian. WTF Opera?
