    kirthik_kirish Yes, it's ok to have watermarks on Windows 11. It also warns about activation, unsupported hardware, useful info about Windows Insider build, etc.. More information is available on the post from Jitesh - https://www.anoopcnair.com/watermark-warning-for-windows-11-unsupported-hardware/.

  • The watermark shown on Windows Insider Preview builds is normal. It provides you the useful information about current build.

    Nothing to worry about!

    Hii,

    Watermark is not error. It shows the version of your insider preview.
    However i do some times feels its not necessary to display all time. Windows shall configure option to turn it off .

    Hi, kirthik_kirish ;

    The watermark on your desktop is not an error, (its useful info) but if you insist on hiding that

    I think the tool you need here is https://winaero.com/universal-watermark-disabler-1-0-0-4 I've been using it and it just works!

    [Warning] the tool is not Microsoft's so use as last resort.

      alainQtec hi

      Why do you recommend a third-party tool?

      I do not need it and I do not recommend!

    kirthik_kirish  Hi

    If you are in the Inisider program - this is all right, do not worry - this is correct

    Good luck
