      I like opera very much but I find annoying that starts automatically even if I don't want to use a browser or this specific browser. Tried to find how to deactivate it, but I can't find where. Does anyone know?

          You can disable the "Run when my computer starts" option. For regular Opera, it's at the URL opera://settings/onStartup. In Opera GX, it's at the URL opera://settings/opera-gx.

          Changing the setting adds or removes the launcher.exe/opera.exe entry from the Startup tab in Windows task manager.

          Also, when installing Opera, you can click "options", to see the checkbox for controlling this.
