One area where you can customize the look of your Salesforce site is the App Launcher. The App Launcher is the menu that displays all of the Salesforce apps that are available to a user.

- Uncheck the “Display App Launcher on all pages” checkbox and click the “Save” button.
- Test your changes by logging out of Salesforce and then logging back in again. The App Launcher should no longer be visible on any page.

- Log in to your Salesforce account.
