Can't get rid of the top left Hot-corner, please help.

[krim71]

Hi guys,

I am a new Ubuntu user, I have Ubuntu 18.04 LTS version. I want to get rid of the top left hot corner feature because it annoys me every time I try to press the back button (typically in Chrome). I tried to disable it from Genome-Tweaks but every time I log out, suspend or restart it is activated again. Is there a permanent solution for this?

Thanks.

Hello and Welcome!

If you are referring to activities there is an extension to remove/hide it. To install the extension you'll need the following first. It will allow you to install from the gnome extensions page.

sudo apt install chrome-gnome-shell

https://extensions.gnome.org/extensi...vities-button/

Thank you, that worked for me.

You should have been able to do this in tweaks.
Maybe because it sets the key to false as a custom key something goes awry? (likely if set. unset, reset it would hold.
In actuality disabled (false,) is the default so simply going this would take care of instead of using an extension

dconf reset /org/gnome/shell/enable-hot-corners

Then can be checked via

dconf read /org/gnome/shell/enable-hot-corners
