How to hide "Look for account name or number"?

I'm running QB Desktop Pro 2020. I just upgraded from 2015. 

 

Looks quite the same, except for an annoying new "feature". The Chart of Accounts now has a search field at the top. I don't use it, never will use it. How can I get this off the screen. it's taking up screen real estate that doesn't need to be there.

How to hide "Look for account name or number"?

Hi @OvalPiston,

 

The search field option is designed so you can easily look into accounts or information faster. Thus, enabling it is unavailable.

 

But if you're looking into disregarding the ads for the new feature, you can click the X, or No, thanks button to remove it. You can also follow these steps so it won't show up again.

 

  1. Go to Edit, then Preferences.
  2. Choose General from the side navigation panel, then the My Preferences tab.
  3. Tick the Turn off pop-up messages for products and services box.
  4. Click OK.
