I am on windows 11 and last night when I tried to play minecraft, i was holding the shift key to go faster when organizing my inventory and upon releasing the key a menu would appear over my screen. How can I remove this feature since I couldn't find anything on my own.

    Hello, i found the reason why, so it comes from Discord, you will need to go to "user settings" -> scroll down and click on "Game Overlay" and then toggle off the first category "Enable Overlay". If i doesn't work the first time, run Minecraft or whatever your game and then on a second monitor, in that same category, it will shows the game that is currently running and then you can manual toggle it off.

    Have a good day
