I'm assuming you mean the box that pops up after you hover your cursor

I believe those are called balloon tips (or by users just tooltips) try

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre nt
Version\Explorer\Advanced]
"EnableBalloonTips"=dword:00000000


That didn't work for me. I tried a new dword, and a new qword (I have 64 bit
Win10 Pro). They really don't bother me; just thought I'd try your
suggestion.
