      I want to keep Opera at 58 since the new look (Speed Dial, sidebar, etc) looks so bad it hurts my eyes, but since it automatically checks for updates the Menu button will turn red occasionally. So is there some way to disable the automatic update checking (I have autoupdate turned off already)?

        @dy4y Renaming the autoupdate executable should do the trick.
