How to remove a newly created toolbar from the View > Toolbars menu?

I created a new toolbar (using View > Toolbars > Customize > Add New Toolbar). I now want to remove or delete this toolbar so that it is no longer listed in the Toolbars menu.

(I know how to un-tick it so that it does not display on the screen. What I am asking is how to remove its listing from the Toolbars menu so that it cannot be ticked.)

Thank you.

Presumably you created yourself using the customize option and the add toolbar button, then dragged icons on to the new toolbar from the palette of icons.

Reverse the process by dragging the icons back off the toolbar and onto the palette. Once the toolbar is empty it will disappear from the menu.

There is also an option to restore default settings, but you may have other changes you have made and would like to keep.
