Remove, Hide, or Relocate the Connection Bar in Windows App when in Full Screen on Cloud PC

When using Cloud PC in full screen mode the connection bar always pops up. It's not Pinned so it auto hides. 

This issue is the bar pops up anytime the mouse is on top of screen. When using a browser, for example, to navigate to a different tab the user has to mouse to top of the screen. 

This mouse movement pops up the Connection bar which is VERY invasive and blocks a large portion of the top screen which blocks the browsers tabs.

Users have to shift this left/right every time or move the mouse away (wait till it disappears) then hope they have better aiming to click on tab without bringing curser to top of screen... or else the annoying Connection bar pops up. 

 

Is there ANY method to be able to any of the these

  • Relocate the connection bar to left side screen (right side interferes with up/down scroll)
  • Delay the connection bar popup for few seconds (mouse on top of screen few seconds to show connection bar)
  • Or permanently remove it and use Windows hotkeys to break out of Full Screen mode
  • Any other idea...

    This is by default when you scroll your mouse to the top that it pops up whether to minimize or close the session.

      Yep. Been fine for the tech users who RDP to other servers/computers. But I’m transitioning from local pc to Cloud PC. Users work with many browsers and tabs which naturally they go to top to maneuver through it.
      This connection bar is so invasive to a normal user.

      Great if it only pops up if you leave mouse on top for second or 2 which then shows the connection bar. Normal browsing will not leave the mouse that long on top.
