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?

***Original title: Wireless Projection Banner***

    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.

    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,

    This is a real annoyance!!!!

    Basically you visit the notifications popup to start projection mode and if you use that same path the to disable it; you get the poor experience of the projection banner remaining on the screen.  

    If you use the banner itself to disconnect it more reliably tends to go away.

    What paint's you into a corner with the banner is:

    1. Click on the notification area lower right corner
    2. Select project mode and cast to your TV as an extended monitor.
    3. Banner appears and you select the unpin button to get back screen real estate on your main monitor.
    4. When you are done displaying on the TV. Now the only way to disconnect to visit the original projection mode and disconnect.
    5. After the disconnection the banner re-appears and you are totally unable to do anything with it.

    After the unpin action shouldn't the banner move the task bar or tray so you can re-access it?

    I just noticed this too - if you use the banner to disconnect (so far) it gets rid of the banner, whereas using the Notification Area it stays until you restart / log off.
