Written by Vygantas Lipskas on January 13, 2009
If you want to delete/disable Opera’s widget menu, just follow these simple steps below:
Open “defaults” folder in Opera’s directory. For example:
C:\Program Files\Opera\defaults
C:\Program Files (x86)\Opera
Close Opera and open standard_menu.ini file with your favorite text editor. For example: Notepad
Find and delete the following entry:
Submenu, M_WIDGET_MENU, Browser Widgets Menu
Save, exit and this is it. Start Opera.

‘oy! Thanks for the tip! I had no idea I could do that!
Editing of standard_menu.ini file is not recommended because when you update, Opera will overwrite it.
See http://my.opera.com/Tamil/blog/show.dml/51487
You can remove all sections except first line, [Version], [Info] and [Browser Menu Bar] sections. Opera will pick missing sections from standard_menu.ini file.
Right! BTW you don’t have to delete unwanted submenu entry. Just type “;” before it.
Example:
[Browser Menu Bar]
Submenu, 148470, Browser File Menu
Submenu, 148480, Browser Edit Menu
Submenu, 67390, Browser View Menu
