How can I disable the annoying remote messages that appear on the screen on the remote machine even after I end the session? It causes more confusion than it helps.
Hi @hurricane51
Thank you for your post. Do you mean the comment window after your remote session?
To stop the comment window feature, please uncheck the box in your TeamViewer options--> Computer & Contacts
Hope this is helpful.

I recently set up my elderly disabled moter with a laptop just before the lockdown started in the UK so that her great grandchildren could call her on Skype. I also loaded Teamviewer set for remote acccess via a fixed password speciifically so that she didn't have to do anything. But now I find that she gets this annoying pop up after I have reliniquished control. She has poor visual accuity and limited dexterity so although she can watch a skype call OK, finding the OK button in the pop up dialogue box and clicking on it is challenging. I can see the point in having it on the controlling computer but this system is supposed to be configurable for 'unmanned' remote pcs so I don't see why it can't be turned off even on free accounts. I hope you can fix this. Thanks.

I have the same problem with my elderly mother and her computer.
To solve this you can do the following:
End your first session and immediately start a second session.Then you can click on Ok and end the second session.The pop-up doesn't show up in the second session.
That works for me and my elderly mother.
Maybe the Teamviewer team could think about a version for homeusers where you can pay a small fee just to disable the nagscreen, because the payed version are much too expensive for homeusers to buy.
the smart teamviewer made it an option that you can deactivate only by paying a licence
I can't uncheck this box, how?
