I am currently with Opera 39. I was not able to find how to disable WebGL.
Please advise.

I don't think there is a way to do it.

Hi @g3000, you can disable it by adding the command line switch at the end of the shortcut to the "launcher.exe" file as follows: \path\to\launcher.exe --disable-webgl.

After you add it, run the Opera, and go to opera:gpu, and you should see there, that it's disabled.

Here is an example on how to add a command line switch.

Hi l33t4opera,
thank you for the hint. Thank you for the link with examples!
I tried both methods but only first one worked for me - which you suggested.
I was wondering, can we use this command line switch for multiple commands? If yes what is the syntaxis? ”-disable-webgl; disable-autoupdate; ??
Thanks

I guess so.

'--disable-webgl --disable-autoupdate' i guess.

Hi @g3000, you're welcome @leocg is right, you can add multiple switches, separated by spaces.
