Let Yardmaster tidy away controls you never use
Auto-Tidy moves sidebar rows and toolbar buttons you have not used in 30 days out of the way. Nothing is deleted, and anything comes back with one click.
Auto-Tidy keeps Yardmaster calm by moving the controls you don't use out of the way. A sidebar row you have not opened in 30 days drops into a quiet Unused group, and a toolbar button moves into the toolbar's "…" menu. Nothing is removed or switched off; it is only moved.
Turn it on#
Auto-Tidy is off until you turn it on, so Yardmaster never rearranges your screen without asking. Turn on Automatically tidy away controls you never use in Settings > Diagnostics.
Get something back#
Open Settings > Diagnostics.
Find the Hidden items card, which lists everything Auto-Tidy has moved.
Click the restore button next to the item.
The item goes straight back to its usual place, and Auto-Tidy never moves it again.
When does something get tidied?#
Auto-Tidy checks once a day, at most, and only moves a control when all of these are true:
Yardmaster has at least 30 days of your usage history, so a new install tidies nothing.
You have not used the control in the last 30 days.
The control has been around for at least 30 days, so a feature that arrived in a recent update is never moved on its first day.
It is something you actually have: a sidebar row that is turned on, or a toolbar button you pinned.
You have not restored it before.
It moves at most 8 controls in one check, and each check that moves something leaves one notice in your Inbox saying what moved.
Still works where it is. A tidied sidebar row works the same inside the Unused group, and a tidied toolbar button works from the "…" menu.
Private. Auto-Tidy reads only this computer's own record of what you click, the same record behind UI Usage. Nothing is sent anywhere.
