  • Deleting the *.cnf files

    Hello All.

    Before I delete all the .cnf files, I thought I'd ask to make sure that it's not a problem?

    Thanks,
    RickV

    Not a problem as long as you never plan to downgrade to v3.19 or earlier.

    Also, if you run 'jsexec cleanup' it'll delete those files for you.

    jsexec cleanup worked great, thanks.

    There's a script to do that and to get rid of the old (no longer used) SBBS files. Try:

    exec/cleanup.js
