Disable Grey Full Screen Alert

Anonymous

How to disable the grey alert in Microsoft Edge "to exit full screen, move mouse to top of screen or press (fn) F" every time I put my browser in full screen? It is super annoying and takes a long time for it to go away... it also happens when I take a video out of full screen mode.. it makes it difficult to switch tabs after taking my video out of full screen since it blocks the video of my tabs and takes so long to go away.

We need the option to disable it asap, or at least make the message smaller. It is too annoying.

Hi, SpartyMD28

Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

I do understand your frustration with the notice, but unfortunately there really isn't such a switch to turn off exiting full screen notifications at the moment. This notification stays on the screen for about 3s. If you have any ideas or suggestions for this feature, please press Alt + Shift + I at the same time to open the feedback screen and submit them, and the development team will regularly review submissions for ideas or fixes.

Thank you for your understanding and support.
