  1. Thanks for posting this sort of content – it’s ridiculously helpful – saves us researching what directories we can clear out safely…

    One slight problem in your script though – the 3rd “certlog” line you have “certlof”

  3. looking at the script one of the lines says del c:\windows\system32\certlof\*.jrs which I believe should read del c:\windows\system32\certlog\*.jrs instead. I would suggest the file be updated. Awesome job otherwise. Thanks!

  4. To preserve 30 days of logs for troubleshooting, substitute the following. Don’t know how wordwrap will affect this so I’ve put a blank line between each command that looks like it might wrap.

    rem Certificate Services Logs
    net stop “Active Directory Certificate Services”

    forfiles /d -30 /p “%windir%\system32\certlog” /m *.log /c “cmd /c del @file”

    forfiles /d -30 /p “%windir%\system32\certlog” /m *.chk /c “cmd /c del @file”

    forfiles /d -30 /p “%windir%\system32\certlog” /m *.jrs /c “cmd /c del @file”

    net start “Active Directory Certificate Services”

    rem IIS Log Files

    forfiles /d -30 /p C:\inetpub\logs\LogFiles /m *.log /s /c “cmd /c del @file”

    I still have something else that’s slowly consuming many GBs of SBS disk space. Have had IIS logs under control for years, but didn’t know about CertLog, from which I recovered 2GB. Every little bit helps! Thanks, and will continue my search for the other culprit(s).

  5. Looks like nothing wrapped, but curly quotes were substituted for straight quotes, so make sure to change them back. Reposting with the Code XHTML I didn’t notice before to see if that helps.


    rem Certificate Services Logs
    net stop "Active Directory Certificate Services"

    forfiles /d -30 /p "%windir%\system32\certlog" /m *.log /c "cmd /c del @file"
    forfiles /d -30 /p "%windir%\system32\certlog" /m *.chk /c "cmd /c del @file"
    forfiles /d -30 /p "%windir%\system32\certlog" /m *.jrs /c "cmd /c del @file"

    net start "Active Directory Certificate Services"

    rem IIS Log Files
    forfiles /d -30 /p "C:\inetpub\logs\LogFiles" /m *.log /s /c "cmd /c del @file"

  8. lead to the same file?

    at the top of the page is a link to the cmd and that uses
    del c:\windows\system32\certlog\*.jrs

    but the april 21st post has a script in it and uses:
    forfiles /d -30 /p “%windir%\system32\certlog” /m *.jrs /c “cmd /c del @file”

    forfiles has to be copied to the server, right? It’s not a native app?

  9. My apologies Mike – the link @ top of the page is the file I’ve created and use. The comment that JRV posted on April 21st has not been integrated into the file I’ve created as I’ve not tested it.
    I didn’t read your initial comment correctly. 🙁

  18. Yet he chose to ask me so many questions about how and why I do things, because he could see the profound insight I had built up due to going my own way with my own research and testing over the past
    7 years. Leave your windows open a few hours a day and then you get to clean the black soot off of the floors.

    I’ve never been in this situation, but I think that once
    you do meet a guy and you think it might get serious, you should tell him and be honest.
