File handling
4. When the scan is complete, you can select files by
clicking in the list.
Use [Ctrl]/[Command]-click to select several files, and [Shift]-click to se-
lect a range of files. You can also click the Select All button to select all
files in the list.
In the following situations, the Cleanup function will list
files that are not unused:
• If you have moved or renamed files or folders (without updat-
ing the project files to use the new paths), there is no way for
Cubase to know that these files are used in a project.
• If you perform the Cleanup function on a folder in which there
are audio files belonging to other projects (outside the folder),
these files will be considered “unused”.
• Also, make sure you don’t delete any files used in other
applications, or files that you generally want to keep!
However, you can always safely delete image files since
these can be reconstructed by the program, if necessary.
5. Delete any files you don’t want to keep by selecting
them and clicking Delete.
6. Close the dialog by clicking the Close button.
