      The new Opera GX is a fantastic looking Browser.

      With that said, is it possible to disable the Startscreen with the Spinning Opera Logo?

      The Normal Opera starts/loads in no time while the GX needs 4-6seks due to the animation on Start.
      So it is really annoying to open it and i see myself to use the Normal Opera more cause it opens faster.

      Did i overlook a Option or is it currently not Possible do disable it?

        @skyhigh24 By default that animation only appears after you have installed Opera GX for the first time.

            Damn...
            i just tried to rename the Profile-Folder (%appdata%/\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera GX Stable) and as soon as i start and restart opera GX it doesnt appear anymore. When i use my Original Profile-Folder, it appears EVERY Time... so it seems like it has to do with my Profile.

              @skyhigh24 Check https://forums.opera.com/topic/33207/solved-browser-start-animation/, maybe you have enabled that option.

                  the Thing, that it doesn't happen on a New Profile leaves me suspicious.
                  so i did a little Research on my original/old/renamed Profile...
                  After copying File after File i found whats the Problem.
                  i can copy every file and Folder with no problem.
                  But if i copy the "Local State" File, the Animation appears EVERY TIME.
                  All Files after the named file doesn't result in problems

                  So i deleted it, and it was generated again on the next start. Now everything is fine. 🙂
