Strange Microphone icon in viewports?

Hello,

Does anyone know what these icons are in the bottom of all viewports and sections in Unity. It seems like an overlay, maybe from Windows. I can't select, disable or interact with them but it has only started doing this since the recent anniversary update from Windows 10.

Does anyone know how to disable this?

All the best,

Looks like the nVidia Shadowplay icons. Check your GEForce Experience settings and see whether you've got desktop capture overlay enabled or something like that.

Thanks for that, life saver. I recently had their updated experience installed, it must add it by default. I went to "Settings" > Disable "Share" options.

It's now gone, thanks for your time!

Thank you for this solution, I was just forced to create an account and update and had no idea this is what was blocking the buttons when importing assets.
