Optimizing Your Database

To improve performance, you can delete information you no longer need in your database, or remove all database information.

To Maintain Your Database:

  1. Select Tools | Optimize Database....
  2. Do one of the following:
    • Select a volume, and click Remove Orphans to remove any orphaned database information.
    • Select a volume and click Remove All Items to remove all information in the database.
  3. Optimize Database allows you to remove specific volumes, whereas the Empty Database option removes the database and all of its contents.

    Orphaned items are database entries pointing to a file that no longer exists because it was deleted or moved using another application outside of ACDSee Photo Studio.
