It's been resurrected like 10 times within the past 4 years...

THIS.
My "Features" wouldn't populate so I could turn off the setting, ALT+Z is the best solution for me!

This necro'd thread just saved me some frustration. Kudo's to those dedicated to its continued rebirth.

It's Nvidia GeForce Experience Shadowplay. Open up geforce experience, click on the shadowplay button in the top right, and turn off audio on the shadowplay control panel that pops up. That should fix it.

One alternative if you still want to be able to use the Share function is to press alt+z (or what button combination you've changed it to in Geforce Experience) to open the overlay while in a game and then disable "Instant Replay" (the left button). This also hides the two icons but you can still use Share if you wish.

This brilliant, still relevant, and saved me today. Thanks guys, long live the necro.

If darko's post didn't work here's what I did to remove them.
1.Open up GeForce Experience
2.Press the shadowplay button(Three dots connected with lines)
3.Turn off "Instant Replay" and microphone.

You're welcome if this helped you ;)

I for one would like to welcome our necro overlords, and take this moment to surrender the city, and all the virgins thereof, to their greater plan.

Thanks, Toes. Now I can play XCOM 2 properly! See you all in 2020!

This is such an easy thing to understand these days I can't help but believe people just like necroing this old thing.

yeah it's an easy thing if you *use* geforce experience, I don't. It's installed because I install the whole driver suite shebang but I don't use it, ever. It doesn't leave an active icon in the tray, and it would have taken a lot of killing processes and checking before I finally found out what was putting the annoying icon there *if not for this thread* (and wtf with share being the default?)

so, necromancer, Thank You

If you still want to use Instant Replay, but want the icon gone, you can press alt+z (or whatever your overlay keybind is).
Then, disable instant replay
Go into the settings on the left of the overlay
Click HUD layout
Click Status Indicator and click the off button
Go back and re-enable Instant Replay

Thank you for this info and the necro's! :-D
I am beginning to use RPG Maker, and that little, annoying symbol was showing up in every drop down menu I opened. Now it doesen't and I'm happy xD
