How do I remove the Control Center icon from the menu bar? I prefer to configure my MacBook Air and all apps in a utilitarian manner. I like the clean look of having only those icons I actually use appear on all interfaces. I have no need for Control Center and would like to remove its icon from the menu bar, if for no other reason than it annoys me every time I check the time, or the battery and wifi icons. I could not find a way to remove it. Have I missed something, or has Apple? ;-) Thanks, gang.

How do I permanently remove app icons from bar at the top of my mac screen? I have deleted malware bytes app but the 'M' icon is still at the top. I followed the instructions provided elsewhere in this forum and it worked (via utilities) but next time I turned on it was back. I have repeated the instruction but don't really want to do this every day. Any further suggestions would be welcome. I am on Big Sur OS.

How do I remove an application icon from my MacOS toolbar? How do I remove the DeepL application icon from my MacOS toolbar? The usual Command + left click drag does not move it. There is no option in the App preferences. The App is not in my Login window. The company is not responding. The icon is stubborn and refuses to budge. Thanks.

It is not possible to remove it or hide it. Just ignore it if it serves no purpose to you.
