### on MacOS X 10.11 (and probably before):

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
$ defaults read com.apple.systemuiserver
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
be cautious: in this command :menuExtra:1 refers to the second entry from the output of the previous command
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
$ /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c 'Delete :menuExtras:1' ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist
|
|
|
|
|
$ killall SystemUIServer
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the second command needs to be applied multiple times, at least some times :-)
