How to Disable Opera Max Widget on Startup / Lock Screen

Hi,

When I turn on my phone the first thing I see is the "VPN is activated by Opera Max" notification/widget on my startup screen/lock screen. Is there any way to disable this notification so it doesn't cover my startup/lock screen and personalized image? It's annoying. I don't mind seeing the small "key" icon in the upper left after I swipe open the phone to let me know that VPN-OM is activated.

It should be in Settings > Notifications on Lock Screen

I have mine set to Show Content. I turned off the Opera Max.
But, it still shows the VPN/Opera Max widget on the Lock Screen.

If I set the Notifications on Lock Screen to "Hide Content" then I see an "Android System Content Hidden" widget. That's no better.

If I set the Notifications on Lock Screen to "Do Not Show Notifications" then, of course, it doesn't show any notifications. This, I don't want because I would like to see notifications for such things as emails, messages received etc when I turn on the phone. I just don't want to see the Opera Max widget all the time.

Samsung J5 (2016) phone

Thanks
Andrew
