Hide extension icons in the menu

The simplest way to hide or unhide a toolbar extension icon in Edge is to move it from the toolbar to the “ellipses” menu, which looks like “…”. Once it’s in the menu, you can easily move it to the toolbar. Here’s how to do it.

First, launch Edge and look at the toolbar in any window. By default, extension icons appear just to the right of the address bar.
