This morning Outlook updated and I noticed there is a new search bar to search apps, how may I remove this bar?
I do not use apps, do not want to use apps and have no need to search for them.
If this is related to MS Team and conjoining everything, I still want to remove this app search bar in Outlook.
Please help.
Thank you!

MICROSOFT PLEASE REMOVE THIS "APP SEARCH BOX "!
I am also experiencing this issue, I cannot get rid of this stupid "app search" box that does nothing.
same here, Please REMOVE Microsoft, this is VERY inconvenient, unnecessary. just make it optional or something. the search box is TOO small now. Compared to the stupid app search bar
