After I installed some software, I noticed that some of them I have changed some UI elements but by Windows Explore, Including Menu Bar. Specifically, even though the Menu Bar was set to not appear, it was present and could not be disabled / hidden.
Normally, to make the Menu Bar disappear from Windows Explorer, we need to go to "Organize”>“layout"> And uncheck"Bar menus".
When the above method does not work, and we want at all costs to disappear Menu Bar, must follow very carefully steps requiring changes de registry (Windows registry) And changes in Group Policy (gpedit.msc).
