Please, provide screenshot for clarification what exactly you mean.

Classic Explorer toolbar can be disabled by right clicking on the toolbar area and deselecting Classic Explorer Bar option.

When Open-Shell is uninstalled it is supposed to remove all its components, including Explorer toolbar.

Ok i had to modify the registry because the toolbar wasn't dispearing even after the uninstallation of classic explorer (i had a little white line instead).

Deselecting the option doesn't work because each time you re-open another explorer it reappear again.
I had no toolbar before installing the classic explorer btw.

That is know issue (#1526). It seems Windows Explorer changed its behavior after some update.
See #1526 (comment) for workaround.

I assume it was setting Locked to 1 in Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar that helped. Is that right?
