When you add packages to any deployment group, they are saved to a special folder called the
package store. These packages remain in the package store even after you have installed or uninstalled
the software that they contain. They are also not deleted from the package store when you remove
them from the deployment group.

In order to manage the space occupied by packages, you should periodically remove from the package
store any package(s) that are not necessary anymore. This deletes all package files from folders in
the package store.

You cannot delete any packages that currently have pending deployment tasks in any deployment
group. You must also remove them from all deployment groups that list them as managed packages.

1. Click

Tools | Options | Software deployment | Manage package store

The manage package store dialog opens and displays a list of all the packages in the package
store. The dialog displays the name of the package, the size of the package including all the files
that belong to the package and whether or not the package can be deleted.

2. Select a package that is not grayed out and click

Delete

.

Package files are deleted from the package store. The managed package files are removed from
the manage package store dialog.
