A setting to disable secondary display dashboard by default

I'm not too fond of the secondary display dashboard. It's annoying that I have to keep disabling it every time I play a new game

    It would be great if this could be extended to all “default game capture” settings. Ideally, there’d be a global control for each default behavior (like the four switches shown in the screenshot), so you can turn a given behavior on or off once and have it apply across all games.

    Another option would be a dedicated management screen for each setting, where you can select multiple games and toggle that behavior for them in one place.

    Right now it’s frustrating that if you don’t like a default behavior, you have to disable it individually in every game. Over time, the number of games adds up, and maintaining those settings becomes tedious.

    This idea could also be expanded to the other capture settings in the main menu (as shown in the second screenshot). For example, if you want to disable automatic “death” captures, you could open the death-capture setting and then quickly enable/disable it for all supported games from a single list.

    Does that make sense, and is something like this feasible within your current settings UI?

    PLEASE! I hate having anything automatically popup like this.
