    I just installed the latest Win10 update, now I have these strange symbols in each window in the editor, anyone know what these things are? They change from pause to refresh (I guess)? These are in the lower right corner of the windows. WierdSymbols.png

    I turned it off in the settings and verified it in the Registry. It's off, but the buttons/icons are still there after a restart of the system. I'm using 5.4.1f1 Personal Edition

    That's from the Nvidia GeForce experience. The Windows (Xbox) game bar has nothing to go with it, as it is visible only if you press Windows key + G. Actually it is really cool so I'd recommend keeping it on. Go to the Nvidia GeForce desktop app and click the "gear" icon on the top right, then turn the "share" toggle to off.

    Thanks DroidifyDevs, that did the trick...I did just update my dirvers and GeForce experience today. Must have hit Win-G by mistake.

    Win + G and the GeForce share buttons are 2 different things. Pressing Win + G is the Xbox game bar, it has nothing to do with those icons. Turn off the Nvidia share buttons, and you can still use the game bar by pressing Win + G. That's why I recommended to keep it on.

    I'm just glad I gave a better answer than UT :)
