Is it possible to make the Owner column in my views NOT a hyperlink? The hyperlinks in the views are confusing the users. There is never a need for a user to go to a user record, for example. How can I remove the hyperlink functionality from the Owner column in my view? Is that possible?
Hi Richard,
The Owner column is lookup type.
In our Model driven apps grid, every Lookup column by default is a hyperlink which when clicked navigates to the corresponding parent record.
Microsoft has recently rolled out the new update for Power Apps Read-Only Grid which has a new property called "Navigation types allowed". This property will allow the system customizer to disable clickable hyperlinks for the lookup column values and only show them as text.

Add Control to the Table to apply for all main views of the table.
Or you can try to use code to disable lookup hyperlink, the same concept we can apply for views:

Or you can add a text field(full name) from the user to the view instead of the owner field:
Thank you very much! It works perfectly on the views EXCEPT not when we have a view displayed in a subgrid on another record. For example, we have an account form that has a subgrid of related accounts. We use the view Active Contacts for that subgrid on the account form. This subgrid continues to have hyperlinks to the Owner, CreatedBy, etc. However the Active Contacts view (from the view selector of the main page) does not have these hyperlinks.
How can we make this new feature apply to views in subgrids on forms?
There is not supported way as of now however, If you really need it, you can introduce a script.
