    How do you disable task bar small pop-up windows?

    How does one disable miniature pop-up windows when hovering over icons in the taskbar? When my mouse pointer touches a taskbar icon, the small window that sort of looks like the application pops up just above the taskbar icon. How can I disable those pop-ups?

    How to disable a icon in taskbar

    Well, you could remove it but it needs to be there for when you plug in a USB drive or backup device so that you can safely remove it.

    You can make sure that it does not always appear by turning off the notification in Settings > System> Notifications and then select which items appear in the Taskbar. Turn off Windows Explorer (safely remove hardware and eject media) as shown below:

    That doesn't help. If I did this, then I would have a (<) icon down there which isn't what I want. It's probably going to be a reg edit or something.
