Disk space used by Sophos

markdu

Hi,

I am hoping that someone here can advise me on how to free up disk space after updates or reconfigure Sophos update manager to delete old update directories automatically.

These directories are using up enormous amounts of disk space. I have been deleting them manually (all update directories in windows\temp\sophos_autoupdate1), except for the latest one of course. I would have thought that the update manager would have done this for me.

The first time I did this I recovered 20Gb of disk space.

I am running Sophos on WinXP Pro 32bit

Any ideas anyone?

    Christian and Jak,

    I have monitored the Windows\Temp\sophos_autoupdate1 directory since applying the fix on the link that Christian sent.

    It would appear that clearing the cache and warehouse directories did the trick. I no longer have multiple folders in the Temp directory.

    Thanks again for your input and help.
