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?

    I found that Shutting Down removes the Banner

    After hours of desperation, I turned to the Shut-Down button.

    I have this same problem. Why the hell does there need to be a projection banner? especially one that cannot be moved when it blocking your damn toolbars or tabs. Also it appears in your notification center when you are projecting. 

    It is like you have no clue on how to notify the user that they Projecting and decide it good idea to hinder the user by placing the notification in the worst possibly place and then went oh there is notification center, lets added it there too. 

    Another one of Microsoft lets not think thing though.

    I got rid of it by opening Task Manager and, after making sure the "More details" button was selected, selecting the "Windows Shell Experience Host" process and clicking "End Task". The process status was then shown to be "Suspended". 

    This worked for me, too. This bug with wireless screen casting is just one of so many. I need to bookmark this page and fix, as I am going to forget it in 3 months when I have the same problem.

    Also, this banner shows up on the projected screen, too. I was trying to project a nice presentation using Office Powerpoint. Since there is no built-in way to case a ppt file like there is for media files, casting the entire screen seemed like a good idea. I should have just found a long cable with how much time it took to do this wirelessly.
