hello,

i have a problem with the size of my wsuscontent dir, about
104Go !:!!!!!!! here are the details:

-first my servers were installer with WSUS 2, configured to receive
french and english languages, for windows 2000,2003,XP, vista, office
and SQL products.
- i have upgraded to wsus 3, and i have deactivated english updates,
as well as sql product.

but my wsuscontent directory didn't get smaller...

i tried wsusutil listinactiveapprovals/removeinactiveapprovals and
wsusdebugtool /toourgeuneeededfiles ( ?not sure of syntax), and also
the cleaning option in wsus.

but no more success....

so, could you please help me, to get my wsuscontent directory smaller.

You need to run the Server Cleanup Wizard.
