Good day, Forum Readers.

This may not be LaunchBox, but rather Windows 11, but I'm hoping you can assist me.  How do I get rid of this for good?

It appears whenever I launch LaunchBox and during Import operations, as well.  I can make it "go away", but it's always popping-up.

@CadetStimpy You sir, are an OG. It's been a while. Good to see you're still around. :)

It does look like somehow Windows has broken itself in that regard. I think it's trying to pop up the stupid Game Bar that everyone hates. You can turn that off under Settings > Gaming in the Windows settings.

Jason, thanks for remembering me. 🙂 OG?  Original Gangster or Odiferous Goober? 😄 As you probably saw from my response to neil9000 (Is that a reference to the HAL 9000?), the Game Bar was already off.

For the record, IMHO, LaunchBox is still the greatest App of all time, and I probably only use 5% of its potential. 😄  By the size of the installation file, it must be a mind-boggling amount of complicated code.  I applaud you!

OG meaning Oblivious Gorilla, of course! ;)

If the Game Bar is off, I'm baffled. Maybe I'm the oblivious gorilla lol.

Thanks for sticking around and thanks for the support. It's been quite a trip, and a huge blessing, this project. :)

It's not a show-stopper, so I'll just chalk-it-up as another annoying and inexplicable Microsoft anomaly.  You're quite welcome for the support, Jason.  Keep on Truckin'! 🙂
