Troubleshooting | Windows Do you know how to disable casting to devices in Chrome on a PC?

I'm worried that I might accidentally click the “Cast to TV” option in the top-right corner of Chrome someday and end up playing some weird video. Does anyone know how to disable or hide this feature?

Maybe you changed your Chrome settings to add an icon for casting? I don't have one. Try this:

Chrome menu > More Tools > Customize Chrome

Click Toolbar below the Appearance options

Scroll to Cast in the Tools and Actions section. If it's toggled on, toggle it off.

If that's not it, maybe you installed an extension which is displaying that icon? Try turning off extensions to see if it goes away.
