Can't remove http header "X-AspNetMvc-Version"

Question

I try to remove the Http header X-AspNetMvc-Version. I added this in Global.asax:

void Application_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    MvcHandler.DisableMvcResponseHeader = true;
}

but it doesn't work. In Firefox I can see X-AspNetMvc-Version: "5.1".

What am I doing wrong?

What happens if you retrieve MvcHandler.DisableMvcResponseHeader later on? Is it still set to true? — Mario

You might need to just stick this into your Global.asax.cs:

MvcHandler.DisableMvcResponseHeader = true;

Check to see if you have anything configured in the HTTP response headers in IIS.
