@memeem It has been fixed now, about 20 hours later, which is pretty good, because there is a collective process behind updates.

Mistakes were made for sure. Many Humans work on this ; it happens.

@sgunhouse said in Opera GX splash screen always shows up, how do i disable it?:

@teletesselator Per instructions elsewhere, go to Opera's program directory (as listed in Help > About Opera) and delete the file opera_gx_splash.exe. No splash screen until the file is replaced in the next update - and that one won't scream at you.

Thank you ! It was funny the first time and I really tried to get use to it. But, for one, it ignores the preferences as stated by the OP (slows down the browser opening) and it gets quite annoying as someone who closes my software.
