is it possible remove the new "Wireless Projection Banner" introduced in 1809 or at the very least move it so that it does pop-up every time I touch a tab in my browser?

    Dear Microsoft Wireless Display team,

    Please add a configuration option to have ALL projection banner functions appear in the notification area and completely disable the banner.

    As you can see from this thread, for many users the banner is an unwelcome and useless annoyance that spoils the user experience.

    The notification area already provides the capability needed, why not use it!  Why clutter the user interface any more with superfluous toolbars?

    Kind Regards,

    Troy K

    Simply annoying, more if you like to have the taskbar at the top of the screen. I like to have it there in my little Thinkpad.

    I SOLVED it by renaming a file in c:\Windows\System32 named Windows.Internal.PlatformExtension.MiracastBannerExperience.dll

    I've had to change the owner of the file from its Properties->Security->Advanced options->then at the top change the owner, next give permissions to Administrators users, and change the file extension to .old.

    I've had to reboot for this lovely hack to take effect. I connected again to my Samsung wireless TV and no more stupid banner.

    I don't know if this is a good advice but I've got rid of it.  I'm a simple user and won't be responsible if you burn your TV or Mars changes its orbit by renaming that file.

    Please excuse my poor english.

    MS please, why you call EXPERIENCE to things like this? If you add something to our work space, please let us disable it!! Or put it SMALLER.

    Regards.

    Man...MS seriously needs to pay you for solving this issue. Thank you for solving this issue.

    I reconnected, then used the taskbar to "disconnect".  That seemed to work for me.
