How to Remove the Favorites Toolbar

A website that is used frequently may be designated as a "Favorite" or a "Bookmark." When the Favorites Toolbar is enabled, these sites are added to your browser toolbar for quick access. By clicking the button for that website, the website automatically loads in an open browser window. The Favorites or Bookmarks toolbar is an optional feature of the Internet browser.
