Tools-Clean Audio Folder
Use the Tools-Clean Audio Folder command to delete digital audio files
from an audio data directory that are no longer used by any of your projects.
You should use this command from time to time to free up disk space.
Important: Make sure that all of your important project (.
CWP and .WRK)
files are stored in your local hard disk(s) before using this command. If your
project files are stored elsewhere, such as a floppy drive, removable drive,
or network drive, you risk accidentally deleting important audio files that are
associated with your projects.
Note: The Cakewalk Audio Finder (CWAFTool) is a more advanced utility
for finding and removing unused projects and audio files. This utility can be
installed from the AutoRun menu of the SONAR CD. If you have an older
version of SONAR you can download the SONAR Audio Finder from the
SONAR Website at www.cakewalk.com.
For more information about the Tools-Clean Audio Folder command, see
To Delete Unused Audio Files.
Tools-Change Audio Format
