How to get rid of this bar on windows 11?

Hi, I'm running Windows 11 24H2, my file explorer shows up this weird organizer bar - now, I don't really like it and I'm trying to remove it. Weirdly enough when I see other people using Windows 11, or when I install it on a VM - it's not there to begin with. I'm confused.

    Since you mentioned that on a fresh VM or clean install it’s not there, it suggests this is a setting or extension on your current system.

    The only way to remove it i found was to use a windhawk mod

    It could be due to feature preview settings, Windows Insider builds, or specific updates that enable experimental features for some users.
