    Removing the box next to the sound level in Win10


    When you change your volume while watching something, a second box comes up next to the volume level box. It has media control buttons and a thumbnail of the thing you're watching. How can you get rid of this? It's pretty disruptive because it blocks your view of the video whenever you change your volume, and it stays there for a few seconds afterwards. I've added a screencap of what box I'm talking about

    I realise there probably isn't an option to turn it off, so is it possible to stop it from appearing by changing some configurations?

    :)
