Blue band on left

[Ken]

How do I get rid of a 2 inch wide blue band that is on the left side of my
screen in Favorites, Recycle Bin, Explorer and other windows? It appeared
after I had been in System Properties at the Advanced Tab and clicked on
Settings. I made a change but changed it back. Now this awful blue band
with File and Folder Tasks on top and other entries below. Obviously it's a
Windows thing. Please help.
