Looks like you can also keep it installed but turn the extension off by unticking the box
(Enable 'Extension Name')

I installed what I thought was an extension and turns out to be a toolbar, I really don't want it now..
Any ideas on how to get rid of it?

Many thanks

Thank you to all of you for the tip! I thought Safari would have their own "Extensions" menu item or something along those lines. It NEVER occurred to me to look in the Preferences.

THANKS SO MUCH! I have been trying to find out how to do this for what seems like FOREVER. I hope this removes the annoying bell sound I've been getting on my Mac. Sounds like a boxing match start bell when it goes off
