Cleaning Wizard

The Cleaning Wizard helps you delete projects from your hard drive, including all movies and the audio, video, and picture files used in them. Use this feature to free up disk space for future projects.

NOTE Caution: If the files you used in the slideshow have also been used in other slideshows (like trailers, etc.), then you should make backup copies of these files beforehand.

The Cleaning Wizard can be found by going to "Edit" > "Wizards".

There are two options available:

Delete certain files: Choose this option if you would like to select certain files for deletion. You can select the desired files in the "File selection" dialog. In the next step, the Cleaning Wizard automatically looks for other files belonging to your selection. Using this method, you can delete an entire Photostory with all of its accompanying media, help, project, and backup files. Before they are deleted, a dialog will appear with information about the files and a confirmation request.

Find and delete unnecessary files: Choose this option if you want to find unnecessary files or free up some space on your hard drive. The Cleaning Wizard automatically looks for files created while using Photostory deluxe that are no longer needed. Before they are deleted, you receive relevant information in a dialog and a confirmation request.
