Remove Wireless Projection Banner from Desktop screen

Hello,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

I understand that you want to remove the Wireless Projection Banner from the screen as it keeps popping when you open a browser. May I know, if the PC is still connected to the wireless display when you are using the PC?

Also, you can try clicking on the PIN icon next to the Settings icon on the banner to unpin it.

However, as per the section Wireless projection experience in the article what's new in Windows 10, version 1809, the banner is designed similar to remote desktop connection where it will be removed when the wireless display is disconnected.

Hope it helps.

Regards,

Simple fix.   Click on the WiDi "Disconnected banner" message to give it focus, then press Alt F4 to close the app. 

Thank you so much, I've been trying to avoid a restart as I'm in an online game but the banner had me drove mad.

Does any body know what process is responsible for this banner so we can end it? I looked in the task manager window and it is not clear to me which one I should end.

It's not ideal but if you restart Windows File Explorer that will kill the bar. 

I had a teacher this morning with the same issue, infact all our teachers use miracast to connect to projectors/TVs all over our school and this new *feature* is highly agitating them, particularly when the bar stays there after having disconnected from a projector or TV.

I hope this is something that can be disabled via Group Policy or the registry, this decision has increased the number of support calls/tickets to our small helpdesk.

Saw this on TechNet

Run Task Manager

Look for Windows Shell Experience Host process

Right click on it

End Task

My problem is that the banner doesn't go away when the remote screen is disconnected. It exists, but all options are greyed out. How do I close it? I don't mind it there when it's connected because I can "unpin" it.

I have the same issue sadly - the banner doesn't disappear after Disconnecting.

On my Surface Go this steals a huge amount of screen space, especially if I'm working in a browser with multiple tabs which are now hidden by the banner!
