The start up animation was funny first time, but every time I open the browser I get earrape
and I can't find a way to disable it
you know the one, with the double X's and then this guy getting a seizure saying "Opera GXXXXXXXX" -

Hey there. Hope you're doing alright. Before this gets deleted I just wanted to say:
- The startup sound is terrible. Ditch it. Don't ever do a startup sound for a browser.
- (1) was all I wanted to say, but to say it took: (a) registration with an email; (b) no less than two crashes from the Opera browser along the way; (c) consent for some stuff I didn't want to consent to, just so I could write some stuff I don't care that much about.
Well, it's been disappointing guys. There aren't that many good browsers out there these days, and I regret to inform you that this is not one of them. Back to Firefox I guess? I had hoped for too much I suppose. (Also, just dump that startup sound.)

made an account just to say that i've been using gx for years now and will now be moving to any other browser because this stupid prank was the straw that broke the camels back. i hope whoever's idea this was know's they're fuckin stupid.

@sgunhouse said in Opera GX splash screen always shows up, how do i disable it?:
opera_gx_splash.exe.
I just renamed it to opera_gx_splash_off.exe first the check there wasn't a conflict which there wasn't. Best to rename first before deleting.

The old one was fun and enjoyable; I don't know who's idea it was to put this annoying garbage in a browser. It's a browser not clown_show.exe
Or is it the usual change for the sake of change nonsense tech companies get hard on?

Unusual question, but is there a way to enable older splash screen back? I tried to copy a file from older patches, but it enables screaming guy, slashing sound and weird ass emoji. I like the usual splash screen and its sound to be fair, so im looking for a way to get them back

Thank you so much, I was about to change my browser because of this shit. WTF is wrong with their marketing team, are they really that dumb? If it just played once it could be dismissed, but every single forking time? What the hell is so appealing about a strange dude screaming while making retarded faces? I barely knew the guy, but after this I doubt he's funny...

@tomhan i can't find the opera gx option and it only shows opera software, not gx
