Microsoft To Do app. The sidebar has disappeared, see screenshot below. For context, I have other lists besides "Movies", for example "Work" or "Personal". The sidebar should show all of these. Restarting computer did not fix. Relogging into Microsoft accounts did not fix.

    I have the same problem, it seems to be a bug with multiple displays when I unplug a display and everything moves it resizes the side bar to 0 width I have on occasion been able to drag it back out but its very hard to find the exact position to do this,

    I have found out how to fix this, maximise Microsoft to do then move the mouse off to the right until the mouse pointer changes then click and drag left, this then resizes the side bar if you do this when window is not maximised it just resizes the main window.

    Hello,mithridatre

    Welcome to the Microsoft community!

    I have realized that your Microsoft To Do sidebar disappeared.

    I have test my Microsoft To Do and can't find any settings to hide the sidebar.

    Meanwhile the official website didn't find a description.

    Maybe this is a bug, or something wrong with the software itself.

     I see that you tried restarting your computer and logging back into your account to troubleshoot the problem.

    I would suggest that you try resetting the Microsoft To Do.

    Find the Windows icon and click "Settings", click Applications, and then tap "Applications and Features".

    Find your installed Microsoft To Do in the list of applications and click the three dots on the right.

     Click on Advanced Options and then find the Reset and Repair option inside the drop-down menu.

    If that doesn't fix it, I suggest you reinstall the software from the Microsoft Store and remember to make a good backup of your data!

    Feel free to post back if you need further assistance. 

    Thank you for your understanding and patience and I look forward to hearing from you.

    Thank you Ryan,

    The Reset option worked for me to fix the Microsoft to do sidebar not showing.
