How do I hide "Filter by name" in "Process Explorer"

Maybe 6-8 months back, I noticed that a field called "Filter by name" appeared near the upper right corner of the main Process Explorer window. Considering what I use ProcExp for, I rarely need this field to be visible. From what I understand, if you press CTRL+F, you're supposed to get the field. To my knowledge, I've never needed it before. As it stands, I don't want it now. How can I remove it to make it like it was before? I never used to be there before. On the rare time I've had to search for something, I'd click on the Binoculars icon and a separate window would open "when I need it", not all the time.

How do I hide that "Filter by name" field? I can't find anything in the program menus to allow this.

Help?

P.S. If it matters, I've got Windows 10 Pro, up-to-date

    This doesn't appear to be available at this time but I would also like to see the option to remove it or completely minimize that column as you can any of the others.
