BatchPatch Remote computer cache cleanup

[jvolk]

For the longest time we used BatchPatch in non-cached mode. We recently changed to cache mode ~1yr. We have recently notice on some of our client systems the “C:Program FilesBatchPatchcache” folder has files in it. Sometime a few GB. From what I read (another forum post)BatchPatch originally copies the files to this location, then to the Windows Software Distribution. It is then supposed to delete the files in the cache folder. However it looks like it is not deleting the items in the cache. Any ideas?

Under normal circumstances BP will delete the files in the cache folder, but there may be certain situations where it does not, such as in the event of a failure or error of some kind. You may delete the contents of the cache folder at any time (except while BP is in the middle of an update installation) without causing any problems.
