Picture of the top right of my screen that shows a floating microphone and refresh icon

As you can see on the top right corner, there's a mic icon and a refresh icon.

It kinda blocks my sight to monitor the time while I play League of Legends.

Is it an NVIDIA overlay setting or what else?

How do I remove this icon?

What is this?

Those icons are for NVIDIA Shadowplay, a process that allows you to record your screen and audio while you game. These icons mean that you can save a portion of the previous amount of time you've played a game as a video. The microphone icon indicates that your microphone audio is being recorded.

How do I simply remove these overlays?

If you want to remove the status overlays while still keeping Shadowplay running, you can:

  1. Run the "Geforce Experience" application.
  2. Click the "Share" button, as shown in the following screenshot:

  1. Click the cog wheels on the right side (the preferences menu), navigate to "HUD Layout" and click the "Off" button.

How do I turn this feature off entirely?

  1. Run "Geforce Experience"
  2. Click the "Share" button in the top right.
  3. Click the "Instant Replay" button and click "Turn off"
