How to hide Application Bar?

Does anyone know how to hide the "Application Bar" in InDesign CC 2020? It is useless to me and uses screen real estate. (This is not the Application Frame, which I have turned off. Nor is it the Control bar, which I have turned on.)

I had thought of the same thing, so I checked all of the XML files. Not a single one contains anything like the text referred to in this thread.

 

It occurs to me that I prefer the Application Frame much more than I am annoyed by the stupid Application Bar we're talking about, so I'm not putting a whole lot of effort into this anymore anyway.

Revisiting this post since it is still not solved. After the update to 19.2 and 19.3 the application frame returned. So I had to dig up where to change what in the workspace.xml. But when deciding to use InDesign in Applicationframe the applicationbar is always active and the xml ‘hide the application bar’ is set to false again.

It is functiuonality I dont want or need and also in the applicationframe mode it would save a lot of space…

I wonder if this could be scripted. See ApplicationBarShown.

I haven't tried it, but this dictionary says it's 'read only'.
