Hide Balloon Help in System 7?

[PotatoFi]

I don't like seeing Balloon help in System 7. Is there a way to hide or remove it?

Isn't it just a system extension? I think I just either disabled or deleted mine... I rearranged my space last night so I can't check rn :lol:  but I'm pretty sure you can just disable the extension.

Edit: Apple Guide extension?

Helium will allow you to hide the balloon menu.

Helium is great but it’s nagware. I modded it to patch out the offending _NMInstall to prevent the nagware alert box on startup, since I can’t figure out how to pay the shareware fee 28 years late .... the version of the extension on Macintosh Garden has my patch. https://macintoshgarden.org/apps/helium-211
