Cant remove "Switch between apps" popup

[Manwel]

Annoying popup in the top left corner. No response from the pointer. I've tried the registry solution, its still there. The "Corners and edges" solution, its still there. It's getting pretty annoying. It's Windows 8.1 and Parallels 10.


Anyone else got this problem?

@Manwel, please try the steps below:
1. Open Windows registry: Press "cmd"+"R" combination, type 'regedit' and Return (Enter) to run Registry Editor.
2. Locate and highlight HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\EdgeUI and look for DisableHelpSticker in the right box.
3. After that please change the value to 1

Then please do the same with HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\EdgeUI line.

Except for that please create a snapshot before performing steps above (Actions -> take a snapshot)
