Hi there,

I wish this function would exist, but obviously it doesn't.

But there is a tool, which you can run from a windchill shell:

java wt.fv.ReplicaCleanUp

It gives you the opportunity to remove all unreferenced files for the whole vault.

Normally I would create a "scheduled task" (Windows control panel) to run that every week or so, but you have to authenticate as a site admin, so I have to start it manually. But anyway it helps to do it for the whole vault and not having to do it folder by folder.

Hope this helps a little bit.

First of all,thank your for your answer.

But when I run the command you give,the error occur as below:
D:\ptc\Windchill>java wt.fv.ReplicaCleanUp
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: wt/fv/ReplicaCleanUp

Can your tell me the reasons?

It seems that the class wt.fv.ReplicaCleanUp is not available in your Windchill installation.

I found it in our Windchill 9.1 M030 installation. Maybe, your version does not have this class?
