How to Delete Gray Bars in YouTube
The gray playlist bar that appears below YouTube videos is a source of annoyance for some users. This bar automatically pops up whenever you click on a video that is included in a playlist or marked as one of your favorites. Currently, there is no way within your YouTube settings to turn off the playlist bar. However, Adblock, a third-party browser extension, can be configured to disable the playlist bar. This method can only be used by Safari, Firefox and Chrome users.
