How do I get rid of this guide menu appearing under expert?

Isn't the whole purpose of an expert mode is that you don't need the guided menu? How do you get rid of it? Thx

This is the Monitor panel in new project mode.

This screen will disappear as soon as you add any media to your timeline. There's no way not to see this screen when you first start a project, but you can ignore and just add your media using the Add Media tools.
