File System Cleanup


Let's face it both applications and people are terrible at cleaning up after themselves. As a result, cleaning up file systems has to be one of the most common requests I have had to help organizations through in my career and it's not always the servers needing the cleanup. Workstations often need the cleanup far more than the servers do. Organizations often target the network share locations for cleanup because that is where they see direct costs associated with this unnecessary collection of files in the form of additional backup media and premature system replacement costs. Workstations though also have file system cleanup needs as well.
