For projects with many files, the quickest workaround I’ve found for this is to move all files into a folder and back:
- Click “New Folder” to create a dummy folder, named
! - Click ⋮ > Show hidden files in the sidebar
- Click on the scrollbar next to the Files section of the sidebar, and hit end
- Double-click on the lowermost file (other than the “Config files”), and hit home
- shift-click on the uppermost file that you want to move
- Drag the selected files onto the newly created folder
- Click on the uppermost file in this folder and hit end
- shift-click on the lowermost file in this folder
- Drag the selection down into the “Config files” section to move it back to the root folder
Maybe Selenium could be used to automate this
