I believe that in my Moodle 3.5, I had successfully disabled User Tours.  I just upgraded to Moodle 3.6.1+ , and I notice that the User Tour kicks in for every student.  I really don't want this to happen, so I would like to disable this for all students.  How do I disable this 3.6 User Tour?  I really don't see a need of showing students that any new feature of 3.6, especially group messaging, since I don't use messaging on my Moodle.

If you go to Site admin / Appearance / User tours you should be able to close the eye of the tour so it doesn't show .

Yep, works great!  Thanks Mary.

What I noticed were four "eyes" that could be disabled.  I had two of these disabled, and the other two enabled.  Have there always been four, or were two more just added into Moodle 3.6?

Yes I believe two new user tours were added for 3.6
