5.11 Finding Unused Files
Live's File Manager can nd the unused les in a Project for you. You can then review them
and decide to delete them individually or collectively. When searching for unused les,
Live will inspect each le in a Project folder, checking if it is referenced by any of the Live
Sets, Live Clips or device presets in the Project. If not, the le is regarded as unused even
if other Projects or programs still use it.
To nd the unused les for the currently open Project, choose the Manage Files command
from the File menu, click the Manage Project button, and then click on the triangular-shaped
fold button next to Unused Files to access a summary and the Show button. Clicking the
