      OK, so...
      Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm like 99% sure that Opera has, at least for a month or two, had a starting animation whenever it updates. I wanted to know if there was a way for that to trigger everytime I boot Opera because I kind of just find it satisfying, and/or if there was a way for me to revert to a previous version without losing my data.

          There's a dedicated executable (Win only) that does it. Simply create a shortcut to it and run it when you need to.

              @btplayz In the latest version folder in the install folder (see "install" path at the URL opera://about), there's an opera_gx_splash.exe file that displays the startup splash screen. However, loading it directly doesn't do anything. You probably need to pass some specific command-line parameters to it to get it to display.
