Remove watermark from Windows 11 Insider Preview 22581.1 (ni_release) update
After installing Windows 11 Insider Preview 22581.1 (ni_release) update, a watermark is appearing on the desktop. How do I get rid of it? This is actually very annoying!!
- Mar 27, 2022It never has in previous builds from the Beta channel if you have a legitimate copy there should be no watermark DEV channel in development if the update has these issues also freezing of the taskbar icons it should never have been released to the BETA channel it's obviously a DEV version

There is a youtube video on how to fix this. It requires some downloading and running of a program but it worked for me. I found out that, since windows 11 is not complete yet, everyone is subject to that watermark until the official release. However, I just reinstalled the current full version of windows 11 and it doesn't (yet) give me that watermark.

- GRadocchioMar 31, 2022Copper ContributorYes, I think the best path at this point is to live with it until the next (or final) release..
