Description
To delete the files in the Temp folder:
1) Open up the Shavlik console that is attached to the Agent.
2) Go to Manage > ITScripts.
3) Highlight the 'Remove Temp Files' script under the 'Maintenance' Category and then select 'Approve'.
4) Once the ITscript has been approved. Close out of the Manage ITScripts window and navigate to View > Machines.
5) Select the machine affected and then right-click and highlight 'ITScripts' and then click on 'Run script...'.
6) This will bring up the Run ITScripts window. Select the 'Remove Temp Files' script from the drop-down box (default if it is the only one approved) and click Continue.
7) Confirm the target machine affected and then select when you want the script to run and then click on Run.
