This link explains how to disable or change the banner. It can be edited under app.config.

Unfortunately the banner is still present as the method doesn't work.

Alexander from SC in the link states that their is a bug with the setting that will be fixed in the pre-release:

From Alexander / Administrator:
Oh, it turns out there's a bug where the UnderControlBanner settings are actually looking at the ShowSystemTrayIcon settings in the app.config. That'll be fixed in the next prerelease, but right now you can only show both or neither.

As @Matt Highsmith said, right now there's a bug where the banner is hidden only if ShowSystemTrayIcon is set to false and the UnderControlBanner settings are also false. So if you want to disable it right now you'd have to set those settings to false.

The bug is being addressed to reflect the correct settings as present in the app.config.

5.6.10530 should correctly respect the app.config settings SupportShowUnderControlBanner and AccessShowUnderControlBanner.

Other forum posts are confusing/reporting bugs that I believe are resolved.

Just use: https://help.screenconne...isable_connection_banner
