How To remove the "App Search Bar" in Outlook

Anonymous

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!

Try updating your Office installation (File > Account > Update Options > Update Now).

The bug should be fixed; see https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/outlook-unexpectedly-has-an-app-search-bar-above-the-message-list-c1bed629-0d4e-42d4-b66e-877cccb74b47.

if you click on Indexing Options and then down below, Modify - you do have that option. Problem is, this does not remove the App Search box.
