How To Disable My Monitor's Auto Onscreen Display (OSD) Popup?

I have a Samsung SF350 27 Inch LED Monitor, and every time I go to the computer after the display has gone to sleep, it pops up an annoying onscreen display (OSD) for about 10 seconds. I don't need it to pop up every time it wakes from sleep. It is very large, intrusive and annoying. I don't even understand the use of it. As well as this, it pops up in the bottom right hand corner of the screen and obscures my Windows 10 notifications.

Can someone please tell me how to disable it?

Thanks...

How many youtube videos did you watch before making a purchase decision? Did any of those influencers mention this issue? We need to start holding them accountable for things like this too. Samsung isn't going to move an inch if we've already laid down the cash -- transaction complete. (Ask me about the BP feature I'm still waiting for on my Galaxy 3 Watch, or the contacts fix for my Galaxy Flip 2.)

But Samsung will sure a heck will make a change if MKBHD is saying "Don't Buy Because of This One Annoying Feature." Call them on their BS, they shouldn't get a free ride for being a corporate shill. Reviewers have one job to do, and being a mouthpiece isn't it.

Ay, ay. Monitor S27 (S27D706EAU) bought in January 2025 has exactly same problem.
BENELUX support via chat asked me to RESET, set a few options to OFF. Nothing changed. So still Samsung does not know hot to avoid it. SAD

I too experienced this problem on a S8 ViewFinity monitor. A real shame this cannot be disabled as I really had no other complaints with the monitor. It was a year 2021 model so I figured I could find something newer that no longer has the annoying menu. The problem is I am not finding a refresh of this product line for a more recent year. If something does exist, it is double or triple the cost or it is a gaming model with features I do not need.
