PaulWTech Posted September 28, 2016 Posted September 28, 2016 The Pulseway Automation contains the Builtin "Cleanup Temporary Files" powershell. I thought it might be worth a conversation. Here's the current code: $folders = @("C:\Windows\Temp\*", "C:\Documents and Settings\*\Local Settings\temp\*", "C:\Users\*\Appdata\Local\Temp\*", "C:\Users\*\Appdata\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\*", "C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download", "C:\Windows\System32\FNTCACHE.DAT") foreach ($folder in $folders) {Remove-Item $folder -force -recurse -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue} exit 0 I'm not sure it is worth removing the SoftwareDistribution\Download files?  From what I understand in Windows 10 you have to run, net stop wuauserv  AND net stop bits What are your preferences and experience with doing this? Is it worth adding these locations: C:\WINDOWS\tmp, C:\tmp, C:\temp, %temp%, %tmp%, C:\WINDOWS\ff*.tmp? Is deleting "C:\Windows\System32\FNTCACHE.DAT" the same as deleting "if exist C:\WINDOWS\ShellIconCache del /f /q "C:\WINDOWS\ShellI~1\*.*" ? Can anyone confirm this will work on Windows 7, 8.1 and 10?
