Windows 10’s Start menu comes filled with tiles for everything from Candy Crush to Paint 3D. Windows 10’s next update, codenamed 19H1 and expected in April 2019, will let you clear all those tiles in six clicks.
This is thanks to a new feature that lets you unpin entire groups of tiles. Rather than right-clicking each tile one by one and clicking “Unpin From Start,” you can right-click an entire group of tiles and select “Unpin Group From Start.” Microsoft’s Jen Gentleman demonstrated this new option on Twitter:

We just counted three groups of tiles—Create, Play, and Explore—on a new installation of Windows 10 19H1. This means it should take just six short clicks to get rid of every last pinned tile.
You’ll just need to right-click a group heading, select “Unpin Group From Start,” and repeat a few times. Then Candy Crush, FarmVille 2, and all the other included apps you don’t care about will be buried under All Apps where you don’t have to see them.
