You can either run it on system tray silently or simply use it with auto start mode (without adding it to system tray) and then it will hide screen volume bar for you.

While Windows 10 has lots of great features to explore, there are also plenty of annoying traits in the new operating system. One of these is the ability to hide on-screen elements and controls. Some, like the Action Center, can be customized, but others allow no user control whatsoever.
If you're making it your mission to be able to hide anything in Windows, you're probably frustrated at the lack of built-in way to remove the volume control bubble that appears whenever you adjust it. Thankfully, there's a workaround for this.
In Windows 10/11 and Windows 8, the volume popup appears at the top left of the screen, allowing you to adjust the volume using the shortcut key. So, some people wonder whether it is possible to disable or hide it.

Volume is an advanced Windows volume control, a complete replacement for the standard Volume Control. This application lets you easily change the sound volume just by rotating the mouse wheel or by using keyboard hot keys or just mouse move on screen border. It includes an audio mixer with advanced volume controls support, a scheduler, an on-screen display, command line support, the ability to store and recall different unlimited presets via one mouse click or system-wide hot keys.
I followed the instructions exactly. It is set to false, but the large volume thing keeps appearing when I adjust the volume.I am curious as to why this was a feature they thought we needed? There is already a volume control indicator built into my computer. I don't need a pop up window :-\
There's nothing showing in driver downloads so I would have thought that uninstalling Quicklaunch would have got rid of the onscreen volume indicator. The only thing I can think of suggesting is to try and install another software for this to see if it simply replaces it. A popular software for this is on the link below.
My solution, which is not ideal, is to use a Logitech Harmony remote. I have a SONOS Arc, so when I change the volume for a given activity, it sends a command only to the SONOS soundbar, not the TV, so I avoid having to see any onscreen volume indicator.
The reasons for the volume control stuck on the screen issue are not clear, but it may have something to do with your sound driver. You may ask: How do I get rid of the volume bar on my screen? Here are some solutions that may help disable on-screen volume control display.
The 3RVX settings do allow you to have sounds effects for the volume control and to set the position and speed of the indicator. Hot keys can be configured, simply press add, set your key/mouse combination and choose the action from the drop down. While in the background the program uses around 2-4MB of memory depending on the skin used. 3RVX comes in both portable and setup installer versions.
There is only a single translucent style volume indicator but it should be large and clear enough to be satisfactory. Volume Indicator Popup is portable so just extract the Zip file and run the program. The indicator will appear in the center of the screen when you alter the system volume. One unfortunate drawback of Volume Indicator Popup is its memory usage fluctuates between 13MB and 70MB every time you alter your volume. Note you can only exit the program from Task Manager because it lacks a tray icon or options window.
This is a pretty simple tool that will display a visual volume indicator when you alter the system volume. It does not directly integrate with volume dials on your keyboard or moving the speaker icon slider, but instead relies on hotkey combinations. Although from 2010 and officially listed as compatible up to Vista, Sound Volume Hotkeys does work fine on the latest Windows 10.
After you install Sound Volume Hotkeys, hold down Ctrl and press either the up or down arrow. This will raise or lower the system volume and show a level indicator in the lower middle of the screen. Double clicking the tray icon opens the configuration window that offers transparency and show/hide transition effects. During testing the program consumed about 1.4MB of memory.
windows 8 volume control stuck on screen left top cornerHi,I have Dell Latitude e6410 recently I upgrade my win7 to win8 now I am facing the issue windows 8 volume control stuck on screen left top corner. and I have no idea how it appear but it can appear when I press laptop volume control once it appear on the screen then I cannot open any other thing so what I do to fix this issue temporarily by pressing the power button to turn my machine in sleep mode after that I wake up the machine then restart the machine from win8 logon screen after that it work fine but it happen again
The Volume Control Bar issue described manifold above is also the same issue on my dual-boot (Win 8.1 Pro & Win 7 Pro) HP Envy desktop machine. There appears a secondary 'mysterious'volume control bar flooded out to 100% in green on the desktop, for this example my Win 7 Pro O/S, which remains at a non-adjustable 100% volume level. When I attempt to adjust the volume using the systray speaker icon, to say, 75%, the multiple volume sliders in the system volume mixer auto return to 100%. I have performed a Clean Boot; run theAutoruns utility from Windows Sysinternals; performed disable all from msconfig. The damn'mysterious' secondary volume control bar just won't go away. It remains visible on the desktop even after I hide all the desktop icons. I have not re-imaged my HDD's with my Macrium Reflect backup images. I choose to'fight the good fight' and try to track down this annoyance. Hint: this errant VCB only started to appear (both Win 8.1 & Win 7 desktops) AFTER I finished installing and updating all the Steam games that come with'The Orange Box' retail product. I've scoured Steam's Community Discussions and received no replies. If anyone in this community has a suggestion(s) to remedy this problem, please reply to me at: nsoconnor@verizon.net
I tried going to the sound menu / trouble shoot and hit update driver..claims it up to date. plus It won't even allow me to turn up volume, restart no help updates no help - my issue started with windows 10
after a pretty long attempt to find what is the real cause of this , I've finally solved this by changing my keyboard. I'd a keyboard branded "i-ball" and this was a multimedia keyboard. I was using the same keyboard on my laptop with windows 8.1. when I use my laptop without this external keyboard surprisingly I don't have any issue with this volume bar. so, I firmly believe that this is the issue of a incompatible multimedia keyboard. thank you.
This morning, when I adjusted the volume on my desktop, a huge popup overlay appeared on the top-left of the screen, blocking a significant part of the video for 5 seconds. It was the Windows 10 volume on-screen display (OSD), except 10 times bigger than before.
Enables the familiar Windows 10 taskbar. It supports all the familiar features, like enabling button labels (never combine), separate network/volume/battery indicators, docking to the top/bottom/right/left side of the screen, plus customizable options via ExplorerPatcher.
Enables the new Windows 11 taskbar. It currently lacks support for showing labels, but supports centered icons; the network/volume/battery indicators are grouped in a single button that opens the "control center".

Just upgraded to iOS 13 last night. Now, the volume control indicator keeps popping up randomly no matter what I'm doing. It appears on the screen for a second, disappears, and a minute later does the same thing, whether I'm placing a call or looking at my messages. Is this happening to anyone else? Any thoughts on a fix? One thing I have noticed is that it doesn't seem to do it while I'm actually on a call. 2ff7e9595c
