Can't reduce watchlist

Question

I am trying to reduce my watchlist , but I keep getting the message "Skipping to force skip during testing" after completing all the steps that worked in the past to reduce my list.  I need to be able to use my watchlist but it is full and therefore will not display results.

Barney, you might like to edit your question and add  bugs  to the tags. Sounds similar to the issue reported at this link.

Mine still no workie, how about yours Barney?

Are you still having issues Patty?

Yes Jamie, it now says “Done” after you run it but no profiles from the watch list have been removed…

Update: Checked again, it works, thank you!!!

I don't use the bulk tool, but reduce my watchlist one by one, checking if something else is needed at the profile. I am able to reduce it.

What are the exact steps for the way you reduce your watchlist.

I open the profile, go to "Privacy", scroll down to "Trusted List for (profile), click "remove yourself" and that's it.

Yeah, that's far longer than using the bulk tool, but that way I also can check the profile if there is a typo somewhere or if a sticker is still missing.

The bulk removal tool is working again for me the same way as in the past.  Thanks so much!
