Hi,

I am using Elastic Stack 7.9.2 and I would like to disable Help and News Feed buttons from Kibana;

![kibana1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/8/c/8c7eb983c85f5f8387238c675573b27910e4ec61.jpeg)

I have alrady disabled newsfeed system configuration in kibana.yml file;

`newsfeed.enabled: false`

but still, I am able to see news feed. Every time I open Kibana (incognito), I can see the magenta alert bubble as well.

 ![kibana2](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/0/a/0a1fd770b9bea76ad4e583049ce066c3a265f490.jpeg)

How can I permanently remove and disable this?

Thanks in advance.

this seems to be an existing issue [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/66784](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/66784) I'd continue the discussion there.
