      If you wish to remove the current Opera GX splash, when you boot up Opera GX, then here is how to do that: As of right now the best fix to remove the startup splash, is to go opera://about, scroll down and copy or remember the installation path, right here: fix_it.png After this you will have to close opera, so either copy and paste the installation into a text editor app such as notepad ++, remember it, or take a screenshot of it. Open up file explorer, or whatever file finding aplication you have.fe.png ^(app looks like this on Windows 11)
      Then you need to follow the instalation path to where it says to go, if you are using Windows 11, you will need to go to This PC5.png^(looks like this on Windows 11)
      then follow the rest of the path out from there.

      Once you get there you will have to find the file called, "opera_gx_splash.exe" if you are using file explorer you can just search the whole folder:43.png^(looks like this)
      then delete this file.

      IMPORTANT NOTE: IF OPERA GX UPDATES YOU WILL PROBOBLY NEED TO DELETE THIS AGAIN.

      If this does not work then this information is outdated.

                What's that Opera? You want me to use a different browser from now on? Well, if you insist.

                (Btw, fire the smooth-brain that thought this was a good idea.)

                            Seriously?
                            How about just switching to another browser?

                              How the hell do I get this off, other than switching back to MS Edge?

                              Do you know how annoying that is?

                                    It's loud, annoying and I can't imagine anyone wanting to see / listen to it every time you start up the browser.

                                    How do I remove or disable it?

                                    Also can we not get such crap in future updates? Nobody above the age of 8 wants it.

                                      most stupid shit ever to put on a fucking browser each time we open it, this browser is so fucking bad, and they don't let us export the data to another usable browser.

                                        @alton09 Just right click on the Windows Explorer and look for OPEN FILE LOCATION. You'll get to the folder then search "splash.exe", then delete the file. I did this and it worked. I got no screaming man on my screen during OperaGX startup. 🤷🏻♀

                                          On startup the opera gx browser plays a opening thing that is fine, then there is loud annoying slashing noises and eric andre fucking screaming "opera gx" please get rid of this or tell me how to turn it off. Shit sucks.
