Does anyone know how to disable this functionality? (See pic below)

Additional Information: I'm using Rocket Theme's Metropolis template, so I'm not sure if Rocket Theme introduced this feature via updates or I got it through one of Joomla's updates.

The button is visible to registered users whenever they hover the mouse cursor over a module. When they click on it, it sends the user to the backend login screen. I do not want this feature at all.

button that appears on top-right of each module position

In the Joomla backend, go to System >> Global Configuration, and you will see an option called Mouse-over edit icons for, which you can simply set to none.

Hope this helps
