I hope this is possible or, better, I hope it will be possible to go back to the previous version pushing a button

if the new version has problem on our computer or we don't like the new features

Older version being....?

if you are talking about Opera 12 or older, there is an option in settings. Don't remember the path now but look in the security section.

If it's a more recent version, try renaming the auto updater executable file in Opera's installation folder.

In Presto Opera (v12.xx or lower): Ctrl+F12 > Advanced > Security > 'Auto-update' box > select/click 'Do not check for updates' > OK
