# How do I approve or dismiss an Auto Rules suggestion?

Open the **Auto rules** tile on the Home screen. Each suggestion shows what it is, why it's safe, whether it's a **Move** or a **Delete**, and roughly how much it would free — press **Approve** for the ones you want and **Dismiss** for the rest.

A dismissed item won't nag you again unless it grows a lot later. It moves to **Dismissed — reclaim anytime**, where **Restore** turns it back into a suggestion whenever you change your mind.

A note in the notification bell tells you when there are new suggestions to review. See [What are Auto Rules?](https://storagestudio.us/faq/moving-folders/what-are-auto-rules)
