I wish the “Download Package Content” task also had this feature. I’m using a task sequence to stage drivers in c:\windows\temp\FeatureUpdate\drivers. So, they end up in ccmcache and in c:\windows\tempFeatureUpdate\drivers. I would like the copy in ccmcache to be removed after the task sequence runs (to make more room for the upcoming feature update).

How work in this case? Is the content will be re-download to use the uninstall.cmd? Thank you

EX. 1909 inplace upgrade over VPN. Task sequence currently fails on test laptops, cache is full. Cache needs to be cleared before running task sequence. I got a script to do this, but I can only seem to get it to run in a task sequence.

This was useful to me. but my query is if we have lot of machine and application installed in 1 may not be present in second. In that case will that be useful.

Also I just want if I deploy this task sequence on any machine it clear all recent ccmcache on it.

Please let me know how can I do this.

Thanks
RajNandini

No this doesn’t clear the entire cache. Only the applications that you install via TS, those folders will cleared after TS runs.

As someone who employs BranchCache-enable SCCM clients I’m not looking to vigorously keep those caches empty. Left wondering why this was implemented this way without adding a general client-action accessible via the devices…

I was wondering if this method will only action after installing an application. Aside from using other methods (scripting / compliance setting) is there an inbuilt process which can be used to periodically go through and clear client caches?
