Annoying blue box in the middle of my screen

Question

So I just got a new pc and booted it up. Everything went well until I noticed there was a big blue rectangle outline in the middle of my screen. I have no idea why it is there and have trouble finding how to remove it. I am on Windows 11 if that can help. I mean an actual blue rectangle outline on the middle of my screen, not a box that shows up when I am about to select something.

Thanks a lot for your help in advance,

Thomas.

Answer 1

Hi there,

Can you attach an image for better understanding of the issue ?

It seems like the narrator app from your description . Go to Settings > Ease of Access > Narrator, and then turn on the toggle under Use Narrator. In Windows 10, it is called "Screen Reader" .

I hope this information helps. If you have any questions please let me know and I will be glad to help you out.

There may be 2 possibilities:

Do you see that blue box in BIOS or Safe mode?

Check your monitor

Uninstall, reinstall and update graphic card driver. Visit the support site of the graphic card manufacturer to download and install the same.

Answer 3

I had the same problem (Microsoft Edge, Windows 10) and it was the Narrator box that got turned on.

Click on Windows Start in upper left corner, then Settings Gear symbol, then Ease of Access, then Narrator, then move the slide button to Off and the blue box will disappear.
