Okay, FWIW, I tried to do my "homework" before posting this. I just recently purchased an Asus V500MVC with Win 11 Home to upgrade from Win 10. Overall, pretty happy with it but, still trying to figure out some of the new "quirks" ...
THIS, I noticed randomly happens, opening different programs or switching to different tabs. Either the word "Multimedia" or, "Standard" will flash (in red) upper left like, just below the tabs (I use full screen) over the back arrow, refresh and home buttons. Is this a Win 11 feature? Is it something I can disable? Or will I need to learn to just ignore it?
EDIT" To add to this, I also noticed it only happens when "Edge" is open.

Hello !
This is not something from Microsoft Edge. It is usually an on-screen display (OSD) from the monitor or display utility, showing the monitor’s current picture mode (for example Standard, Multimedia, Movie, etc.).
What monitor are you using with your Asus PC ? Did you install the driver manually ?
Check in your installed programs if you have software that controls your monitor. Check for ASUS DisplayWidget, Dell Display Manager, HP Display Center..
Looking forward to your answer !
Aymeric-B,
1.) No, I don't recall installing the driver manually.
2.) it is a Dell SE2416H Monitor. yes, I do have Dell Display Manager, Version 1.56.0.2110. Monitor Manufacture Date is 12/15/2017.
Thanks for coming back to me !
I think Dell Display Manager is the culprit here. Open Dell Display Manager, click on the "Basic" tab, and switch to manual mode.
The issue should disappear.
Please let me know if you have any other question !
Alright, thank you for your prompt response here. Switching from Auto to Manual stopped it immediately.
