See, that's where the difference lies:
I can do that as a user, no problem, because I edit my own profile.
Installed programs, or program folders, for this I need root rights.
Open the console, type Pw, then do the required action.
Mostly I work with

OpenSuse Tumbleweed or Leap ist not manjaro linux; you need the root to change major setting on the system. If you can do that without root-rights, the you have a big problem with your system 🙂

It works for me if you run opera the way I say above, but as a user. You can also edit opera's shortcut so as to always launch with --start-maximized with simple user rights.
Unless you mean that you changed the /usr/share/applications/opera.desktop, where you do need root rights.

I try that today and it works perfect - if you do it as root 😜
With OpenSuse Leap 15.1 and Tumbleweed it's great.
Thx 😉

If you close all opera windows and launch it from a terminal like so

opera --start-maximized

does it start maximized?

Exec=opera %U

it lauches this

Exec=opera --start-maximized %U

and repeat for the 2 more lines starting with "Exec" under "[Desktop Action NewWindow]" and "[Desktop Action NewPrivateWindow]" if needed.
