How do I get rid of this??

edit

I have Windows 11, and I have a mini-window that says "Desktop 1" that imitates the computer screen from a few minutes ago, and there's a "No symbol" on the upper right corner. How do I get rid of it?? Georgia guy (talk) 16:54, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Update. I was playing a game from a site called Crazy Games. I put the game into and then out of full screen mode, and it succeeded with getting rid of the mini-window. Georgia guy (talk) 16:58, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
However, I still would like to know if other things (besides turning off the computer) can also fix it. Please focus especially on waiting for a screen saver and then getting off the screen saver by moving the mouse. Georgia guy (talk) 17:07, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It sounds like you triggered Task View. You can go into Task View and close desktops just like closing programmes. - X201 (talk) 17:10, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, forget that. I think it's something else. - X201 (talk) 17:18, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
