the splash screen was driving me mad but have found a way around it
go into program files search for opera inside find the launcher .exe
save to desktop as a short cut use it to the open browser and there will be no more annoying noisy splash screen

@proshor Zandocarl post 1st option works but after update need to do same again

@steve1376 need to delete opera_gx_splash.exe after each update

lol they're persistent

Zandocarl

first way works a treat cheers

@proshor
use this to open browser you will have no splash screen in opera folders in local disk sent to desktop as shortcut works for me

@meeker-morgan
got to cdrive program settings inside the opera folder
find the launcher.exe right click save as desktop shortcut use this to open the browser and the splash screen is no more an annoyance
