How to remove/hide GitExtensions toolbar from Visual Studio?


I tried:

  • right-click on a toolbar and uncheck GitExtensions
  • right-click on a toolbar > Customize and delete GitExtensions
  • moved the toolbar from the second row to the first row
  • searched GitExtensions settings for a way to disable/hide the toolbar, but didn't find anything

The GitExtensions toolbar shows up again on the second toolbar row after a computer restart.

I use:

  • Windows 8
  • Visual Studio 2012
  • Git 1.7.11
  • GitExtensions 2.41

Solution

  • The Git Extension files are stored in your 'My Documents' folder in a "Visual Studio 2012" subfolder. Removing these files will make the toolbar disappear from within MSVC.
