I wanted to share a quick win that just saved me a ton of time. Since May, I’ve been battling a recurring **WP005 error** on two specific zones with my Yarbo. I tried everything—painstakingly remapping the areas and redrawing the paths—but nothing worked.

Today, I decided to try deleting the trimmer memory paths in those zones to see if that would solve it. My first thought was, _“Oh crap, this is going to be a massive chore.”_ I was looking at powering down, mounting the trimmer, powering back up, making the edits in the app, and then repeating the whole process in reverse—twice, since I run two separate cores. It easily would have been a 30+ minute ordeal.

Then I remembered I could just use **Yardstick**.

I grabbed my PC, opened the desktop map editor, and knocked out the edits for **both cores in about two minutes flat**. Best of all? Clearing those trimmer paths actually fixed the WP005 issue!

Huge shoutout to the team at Yardstick ([www.yardstickhome.com](http://www.yardstickhome.com)) for creating a tool that makes map editing completely painless. It easily paid for itself in saved time today alone.

That’s awesome! Strange how those affected it, but I guess not surprising either. They are basically a dead end.

I ran one area twice with one core, and another larger zone on the other core, no issues so far.

I just can’t believe how easy editing is with Yardstick. I was really dreading the time is was going to take to delete the paths from two areas on both cores.

Being able to modify for modules that aren’t installed is a game changer. Been begging Yarbo for this for years.
