How can I reduce the folder winsxs, on a Windows Server 2008/R2 server?

Hello

I am currently working for the NHS and we have a more complete series of 150 servers primarily boxes of Windows Server 2008 R2. We have found that we constantly get alerts for a not enough space on countless servers and found this ha winsxs it'sbeen consume a value of GB of disk space.

Is there anyway to reduce the size of this folder without using any cleanupmgr, any what vista tools ect because it tried by us on countless occasions.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thank you

  • How can I remove "the folder/Users/user/to/mygame doesn't exist." Terminal. Rises every time I launch Terminal.

    How can I remove "the folder/Users/user/to/mygame doesn't exist." Terminal. Rises every time I launch Terminal. I am a novice. Thank you very much.

    1. Please select from the menu bar Terminal

    ▹ terminal preferences... ▹ Profiles ▹ Shell

    If the run command box is checked, uncheck it or enter the command to run automatically (if any), each opening of a Terminal window. Note: this is not how you define a default shell.

    2. If step 1 does not resolve the problem, see below.

    Back up all data.

    Select

    New Shell command ▹

    in the Terminal menu bar. Uncheck the box marked

    Run the command inside a shell

    If it is enabled.

    Copy and paste the following line into the text box that appears, and then press return:

    /bin/mkdir disabled_shell_files

    Close the Terminal window that opens. Repeat with this line:

    /bin/mv .profile .bash_history .bash_profile .bashrc .inputrc disabled_shell_files

    History Shell and former initialization files will be saved in a directory named "disabled_shell_files" at the top level of your home directory. It is normal that some of these files do not exist, and therefore, you will get error "no file".

    Close the window and open a new test.

    You may already know that files with name starting in '. ' are not visible in the Finder by default. So, if you open the folder that you created in the Finder, it will appear as empty, even if it is not. If you need to recover a portion of the data in the files of the shell, use a shell such as nano-based text editor (1). Make sure that you're not recreating the problem. Otherwise, you can delete the folder.

  • How can I reduce the size of a file of numbers?

    I have a file that is too big to 650 MB. It is mostly text.

It seems to me that if I could have something in layers? How can I reduce the size of the file.

    If it's really just the text that seems really strange.  I repeat what you have already done, copy items to a tim in a new file, and then save after each copy and monitor the size of files.  When you see the file size jump exceptionally fast, do NOT save the new file, and focus on the issue.  What are the benefits?  You paste images into a table as a background fill?

  • How can I copy the folder my documents in my iCloud drive and then I sync the two after that?

    How can I copy the folder my documents in my iCloud drive and then I sync the two after that?

    You can simply drag in iCloud reader, but I pass and move documents in their files app instead. It will probably take a while to download all documents.

    It is not a way to sync without some third party software that synchronizes folders, or learn how to use rsync in the Terminal.

    Instead of synchronization, simply use the iCloud drive in the 'Documents' folder after you move the files.

    original title: email signatures

    How did you compose the signature?  If you have used the word or some office products, its probably loaded with unnecessary code.  In Word save as html, but use the filtered HTML and which should reduce the size.

    All you really need is the basic HTML code such as:



    This is a signature.

    Here's a picture:


    You can copy and paste that into Notepad and add some text, formatting, and images you want.

  • How can I reduce the size of a PSE11 catalog?

    How can I reduce the size and increase the efficiency of a PSE11 catalog by removing many of its elements?

    A catalogue with more than 10,000 photos works very slowly. But deleting the photos does not help. To take an extreme example, removing all but ten photos, remove all tags and identifications of persons and performs the repair and optimization changes size of the catalogue almost at all, from 516 MB to 493 MB. The properties of the two catalogs indicate the number of files to remain unchanged: 10 279 files. (It seems that each of these files is a photo in the original catalogue, great, all except that ten have allegedly been deleted).

    A whole new catalog created with these same ten pictures has less than 1 MB in size, with only 20 files. This tiny catalogue and the 493 MB each probably contain the same usable information.

    Starting with the large catalog with 10,000 photos, is it possible to delete all but ten of his photos, while reducing its size from 516 to 1 MB? (If so, I want to use the same method with a lot more pictures.)

    Thanks for the comments.
