Windows 10: Remove this Menu from Desktop on double click

*Thumbs

 

I I got some previous help with a strange dropdown arrow on the desktop that showed up. I am also noticing that if I now double click on the desktop, I get a menu as shown in the attached picture. I am thinking its a QTTabBar feature, but cannot find the option to turn it off. Can anyone provide some help? Thank you in advance!

Create a Shortcut for Microsoft Edge

Click & drag the tile from the Start Menu to the Desktop & release. This will create a Shortcut on the Desktop without removing from the Start Menu.

Hi Matthew,

This issue may arise if your computer drivers are not updated or there are some corruption within your user profile. In order for us to efficiently assist you, we just have few questions for you:

• Have you tried updating your hardware drivers?
• What troubleshooting steps have you already performed?

Hover your cursor close to the System Tray arrow til you see a small Q , right click that and choose options from the expandable menu's...





(You can also unlock your Taskbar to expand the button):





or,
right click your Taskbar, expand Toolbars and uncheck QT Tab Desktop Tool to disable it completely...

 

As an added note:

I highly recommend the use of QTTabBar, I find it an indispensable extension of the Explorer shell!

However,
if you want to uninstall it, you need to run the Install .exe and choose Uninstall.

 

Thank you Edwin! This was a perfect solution.
